Great location with a bit more secluded feel. Perfect in between distance from both sides of Acadia. Host was very responsive & the house was very well maintained and extremely clean. The little outdoor fire/grill area was great as well.

Acadia Vacation

This house was a great place to stay while we explored Acadia National Park. My wife and I stayed with our German Shepherd dog. It was a quiet and comfortable place to retreat to in the evenings after a busy day exploring the area. The house is well stocked with all the amenities to make you feel right at home. We would definitely stay here again if we vacation in the area again.
