Clean rustic cabin, very comfortable. The kitchen is a little disorganized but it’s not too hard to deal with it. Conveniently located to tour Acadia NP.

Staying at Helen’s was comfortable and cozy. We loved the location, quiet and yet close to many of the big sites. Everything was as listed. We stayed with our four kids, who had plenty of room to spread out and relax when we were home. The kitchen is well stocked, the towels and bedding provided were great, and we enjoyed the fire pit and deck as well. Be aware that the walls aren’t insulated/soundproof, as one would expect in a cabin. We loved our stay and would definitely stay again!
