Harbor Watch - water views & walk to town
Come discover why the "quiet side" of Mount Desert Island is really where the action is! Sit in the living room or lay in bed and enjoy amazing sun rises overlooking the harbor. Located within walking distance of everything downtown has to offer, this cute New Englander style home with harbor views is the perfect base to explore all the treasures of MDI. Just a short drive to some of the best attractions Acadia has to offer and located on the Island Explorer route so you can travel around hassle free. Be among the first to enjoy this all new renovation, with new furniture and appliances.
