Despite being on on one of the Island's main routes, the house feels fairly secluded due to the large yard and surrounding trees. The front bedroom does get some road noise, though I didn't find it to be an issue and the beds in both rooms are comfortable. Being centrally located, nothing on the island is too far away. The only drawback is that parking in Bar Harbor itself can be tough depending at certain times. At least 2 of Acadia's carriage road entrances are also within a 15-20 minute bike ride.
