Super easy communicating with Rob and Gayle! Rob greeted us when we arrived and made sure we knew where everything in the apartment was. It was very easy to get to downtown Bar Harbor and ANP. It was a nice, quiet retreat nestled in the woods. We appreciated being a little removed from town.

The property is well maintained and thoughtfully stocked with dish soap etc., even dog bowls. The washer/dryer on site is super convenient. The full kitchen has everything you need. The property is a short drive from Bar Harbor and Acadia; the woods are quiet and peaceful. We really enjoyed our stay.The host's phone numbers don't seem to work, which made check-in a hassle, so your best best is to communicate via messaging in the app. The hosts were very kind and responsive.

Our stay here at the Dragonfly Woods was very awesome and very smooth from the beginning to the end. Not only is the location in a wonderful spot but also Rob and Gayle are two of the most hospitable hosts out there. They were always there when we needed it and were very helpful with guiding us with great recommendations throughout the area. We would definitely recommend staying here if you are staying in Bar Harbor area.

Wonderful Place

Really nice place, we were extremely happy there. The furnishings are solid quality which is hard to come by in rentals from our experience. Nicely decorated and very functional. Everything was there that we needed and the outdoor space was lovely and quiet. Seriously high value for the price, we were so grateful and will be back! Perfect for our family and such a great couple to rent from.

Dragonfly stay

Clean and quiet older apartment with all amenities. Easy access about 3 miles away to visitors center to catch bus into town. Hosts do their best to make your stay enjoyable and stress free. This is a garage apartment so be aware there are stairs but a very good place to stay while enjoying the beautiful area of Bar Harbor and Acadia.

Great experience

If you are going to Bar Harbor I highly recommend staying here. The location was relaxing and quiet, town is about 10 minutes away. The book of information on the table was fantastic. Everything that we needed was available to make our hiking trip enjoyable. The owners Gayle & Rob are fantastic and very knowledgeable. I am so glad that we skipped the hotel stay and enjoyed their place.

Great lication outside of Bar Harbor

Welcoming hosts and apartment that lend to the perfect location for a relaxing trip to Maine. Conveniently located with a short drive to Bar Harbor and Acadia, made this a dream spot. Robert and Gayle went above and beyond with the preparation to our arrival and provided a clean and safe place to rest in between exploring MDI and surrounding area. Their informational guide book was essential and very much appreciated in our search for trails, restaurants, and local attractions. We would absolutely recommend this property and would love to return one day!

Everything was so wonderful!I’m there was a personalized welcome, not 15. Find a key and let yourself in good luck. Our dog was very grateful for a cool drink of water. The moment she was in the house. Wi-Fi is a struggle throughout Maine. We included did have some struggles. It was not ignored at all by our host and hostess!

Perfect stay at Dragonfly woods

Gayle and Rob have been very communicative and gave some great tips already ahead of the trip. Property was very clean and equipped with everything we need (e.g. full kitchen, washer/dryer, heat & cool system, Grill ). Lots of attention to details too (paper towel, Alu foil, olive oil, tabs for dishwasher and washer…). Location is also perfect to reach Bar Harbor and National Park. Big plus was to be able to bring our dog and have ample space to let him run (even though it was not really needed after long days of hiking and biking ;-)
