We felt completely at ease and enjoyed the wildlife and ocean. In fact, we cut a trip to Bar Harbor on our last day so we could spend more time!

The ocean view with the lush tall trees was so amazing. It was very quiet and peaceful. We enjoyed sitting in the lounge chairs by the water and using the fire pit. The house itself is lovely and well maintained. We were totally happy with our decision to stay there.
