A quaint and relaxing stay close to everything MDI and Acadia have to offer. Hosts were quick to respond, all major hiking points a twenty minute drive and comfortable beds for when the day’s done. Would definitely recommend :)

We had a wonderful 2-night stay at this beautiful studio! Surrounded by nature, the location is incredibly convenient for exploring Acadia National Park, yet it feels miles away from the crowds. It was the perfect, quiet retreat to come back to after navigating the busy summer rush in Bar Harbor and the park.Lenny was a fantastic host—incredibly responsive, gracious, and welcoming. Don't let the fact that it's a newer listing hesitate to book. This place is special and we will definitely be back.

Had a great stay. A pretty great location- 10-15 minutes from most Quiet Side locations and under 25 minutes to places like Jordan Pond and Bar Harbor. No kitchen, but everything you’d need short of that - microwave, toaster oven, water heater, etc.Very comfortably fit 2, would be a little challenging with four adults. But great overall!
