This is an incredibly lovely home. Everything is comfortable, clean, and of good quality. That last sounds silly to mention but it's so nice to stay somewhere with dishes that won't break and comfortable beds with nice sheets and beautiful bedspreads. Art on the walls, cozy couch and chairs, sitting porch for morning conversations. Our family loved every minute we got to stay.

We loved our stay at "The Parsonage". It was everything that was described in the listing and more. The house felt spacious even with seven adults and was well equipped with everything we needed. Our initial concerns turned out to be unfounded, the one shower was aided by the hand held sprayer in the third bathroom. The air conditioner units cooled where and when needed, considering it was July. Parking was no problem with two cars and such a help. We loved being able to walk everywhere. We hiked, biked, and kayaked in Acadia.

The house feels homey and a great location. Would have really liked to have a tv in a more common area so we could gather as a family on rainy days but the house is nice. Beds are comfy. The house is old which gives it a quaint feel but with that, doors don't always close or have locks. We didn't mind that but just be aware. The host provided a lot of great necessities that helped us out like bug spray and even bars of soap. It was very thoughtful. I would definitely recommend this house.

Perfect family getaway.

This home is perfect for a family or group stay in Bar Harbor. Plenty of room to spread out inside the house and it’s in a perfect location to downtown Bar Harbor. It’s a two block walk to all the restaurants and shops. It’s also close to Acadia National Park.

The home was in an ideal location. Close to the Farmer's market, dowtown and churches. The home was tastefully decorated with personal touches throughout. This was truly a home away from home. The kitchen was stocked and very clean! The owner responded quickly when contacted. We already booked for 2026.
