This was the perfect place to stay as our family explored Acadia and surrounding areas. The house was very clean and comfortable. We loved being in the woods but close enough to the road access. We would highly recommend staying here!

The house and property were excellent in every way for our family of 5! The location was very convenient to Bar Harbor, Acadia, and shopping areas, The beds were all very comfortable and the main living area was spacious. We enjoyed playing some of the games that were available and relaxing outside on the front deck.

The Chalet is a beautiful place! Everything was clean and as described in the listing. Appreciated the air conditioning given the recent hot temperatures and the full size washer and dryer were very helpful!!! Less than 15 minutes to Bar Harbor so it was a great location!!! We would absolutely stay there again!!! None of the clocks worked… so maybe they just need some batteries.

The location and house was great for our family of 6. Each of our kids had their own bed, which they will always be happy about. Getting to Acadia NP and Bar Harbor was quick and easy. Visiting the west side of the island was also quicker than being in Bar Harbor. The house had everything we needed. We had a great trip!

Perfect home for a family vacation

This house was perfect for our Acadia vacation. We traveled with another family, and we both agreed the property exceeded our expectations. The house was clean and very well stocked. It was also in the perfect location for our excursions all over the island...nothing was too far away. We were very sad to leave and would love to stay there again!

Absolutely Perfect

This was the best VRBO stay that we have ever had. Everything from the home, to the amenities, down to the linens and kitchen utensils was perfect. Location could not have been better, it was secluded and quiet, yet an easy trip to either Ellsworth or Bar Harbor. We had a fantastic time and would recommend this location to anyone planning on visiting Bar Harbor, Maine

About the host

Hosted by Robert Overly

Host profile image
Bob & Heather from Phoenix Arizona have 6 children and 11 grandchildren. Bob is a small business owner and Heather is a physical therapist for more than 41 years. Our favorite past time is coming to Maine, hiking Acadia Park, exploring the Coast, and relaxing (and working!) on our cozy getaway home!

Why they chose this property

The HOBO Chalet is nestled toward to back of our property for a cozy feeling surrounded on 3 sides by beautiful woods and a grassy play/relaxation area. The large front Chalet windows in front provide an open feeling with natural light and a beautiful front deck to enjoy the beauty Bar Harbor has to offer. This home is in a wonderful location, as guests can easily access all 5 harbors on the Island, Acadia Park entrance less than 5 miles away, 2 wineries within walking distance, nearby Pirate's Cove Miniature Golf for adults and kids alike. We are located only 6 miles from downtown Bar Harbor (a convenient Island Shuttle stops at the neighboring motel every 15 minutes), and if you desire to venture off the Island, we are 3 miles from other stores and restaurants, scenic drives or highways to historic sites, quaint New England towns, and coastal adventures both North and South.
