Summer House

The house was very clean and even had a little welcome package upon arrival. We cooked a few meals in the house and struggled somewhat with finding pots/pans and utensils to cook with but overall a good stay.

Exactly what we wanted

Within walking diatance of the tidal flats - kids loved seeing the starfish! House was great, thanks to the hosts for easy and fast communication. Perfect distance to both Bar Harbor and Acadia Basement bedrooms stayed nice and cool for sleeping (there in June), appreciated the sun room and living area upstairs for a rainy day (game time!) Thanks again!

Not as described in listing

This home is immaculate and beautifully decorated but be aware that there is only one private bedroom. There is another open room with no door at the bottom of the stairs adjacent to the bedroom with 2 beds which would be suitable for a family with children but it is not suitable for 2 couples. Also be aware that the sleeping area is located in the basement. The one air conditioner in the tiny half bath is not sufficient to provide cooling comfort for the first floor. On the positive side, in addition to being tastefully decorated, there is a bright, comfortable sunroom off the living area and as I've already mentioned, the home is absolutely immaculate.

Nicely remodeled home

The owners have thoughtfully remodeled this home, and we very much appreciated the cleanliness and aesthetics of it. There was more than enough room for our family of four, and we particularly enjoyed playing cards in the sunroom in the evening. Amanda was easy to communicate with and responded quickly to questions. We made breakfast and dinner a few times and would have appreciated a dishwasher. 😊 The kitchen nozzle was stuck on the spray mode and made washing dishes a bit of a hassle. Things to note: The location did make for some challenges with sourcing groceries and restaurants with healthy options. We would have stocked up at a Hannaford grocery before arriving had we known. One other detail to know for those guests with light sleepers is that whoever stays in the queen room has walk through the twin bedroom to access the bathroom and the upstairs. While it did take about 30 minutes to reach Acadia, the drive was easy and we did the trip three days in a row. We enjoyed our stay!

Rustic Retreat

The main level of Amanda’s home was beautifully decorated. The couches were very comfortable and there were plenty of seats for everyone in our group. There were lots of windows on the main level which gave us some great views of the wildlife. However, there were no blinds, shades, or curtains on any of the windows. There were very minimal kitchen utensils or cooking supplies, although the grill and patio area was nicely arranged. There were tons of insects in the rental upon our arrival and throughout our stay. The air conditioning made the temperature comfortable on the main floor, but basement sleeping area was quite warm. The description and pictures of the basement bedrooms were misleading. There was a very lovely, large bathroom/laundry room in the basement. Although Amanda provided a dehumidifier, the basement still felt damp. The listing indicated there were two bedrooms. There was one bedroom with a door that closed. The second sleeping area was in the remaining open basement space. There was no door/privacy. The open sleeping space was exposed to the light and sound from the main floor, and it was very tough to sleep while anyone was using the main floor.
