Well taken care of, very comfortable with plenty of seating with all the comforts of home. The condo has a cooler, great patio, coffee supplies, and dry condiments, which was very helpful. Great location!! The one thing I can suggest is black out blinds in the master bedroom and a new mattress.

Great Location between Acadia and Bar Harbor downtown

Great place to stay for our annual girls trip (50+). We loved the location and the house literally has anything you could want/need already stocked. We enjoyed it very much and loved that we were within walking distance to the park or downtown,

Peaceful, clean, and very comfortable, this property worked out great for our family of four adults. It had all the amenities we needed to include games and puzzles for evening together time, use of the washer and dryer (incredibly helpful) and air conditioning though we only used it at night. Roughly 10 minute walking distance to downtown Bar Harbor and one of the park bus stops as well as a few hike starting points. We certainly enjoyed every minute!

Great Location

This property is in a quiet neighborhood between Bar Harbor and Acadia. It’s a 15-20 minute walk to shops, restaurants, and attractions in Bar Harbor, and Park Loop Rd is just up the street when you want to visit Acadia. The condo offered everything we needed to feel comfortable during our stay.

Our Christmas present to ourselves

Our family decided to do a trip to somewhere in the lower 48 as our family Christmas present. We each put two choices of places into a hat and the last choice drawn would be where we'd go! Bar Harbor was the winner and it was a group effort to plan our visit! I researched where to stay and the Chickadee was the perfect choice. Great location to BH area and Acadia. We had everything we needed. Steve does a wonderful job thinking of everything travelers could need, especially those flying from afar. If we ever come back to this area, we would not think twice about staying at the Chickadee.

Close to evening yet far enough away

You could easily walk to Bar Harbor or take a five minute drive to downtown. The carriage roads are a short distance away. The house was well laid out, quiet, and clean. Very comfortable. The host was very easy to communicate with and very responsive.

Perfect location

The Chickadee was minutes away from Acadia, which made it possible for us to visit the park multiple times a day and maximize the number of sights we could see. It was also very conveniently located close to Bar Harbor - so we could easily access the grocery store, bike rentals, restaurants etc. The property itself was very clean and neat, and was in a very quiet neighborhood. The kitchen was well stocked and carried everything we needed for a few days stay. The primary bedroom was spacious although the full beds in the 2 additional rooms were a little tight for 2 adults to share. Overall, we had a great trip, a very convenient stay and would definitely recommend and come back!

Great Home, with room for everyone

This is a home, not just a house. All the little things that you normally have to bring with you, or buy once you arrive were already there. Extra pillows, blankets, dish detergent, laundry detergent, kitchen staples. You name it, it was there. Home was clean, and the beds were very comfortable. It was in a little neighborhood that was very quiet, minutes from Acadia and downtown Bar Harbor. We walked from the house to Bar Harbor several times. It was .7 miles from the house to the farther-est end of the pier. The living room suit appears to be new, and offers seating for 6. Each bedroom has its own split ac/vac unit which was great as we all don’t like the same temperature at night. Also, lots of brochures, magazines, and books about the area and Acadia. Also, we had no issues communicating with the owner. Over all a great experience!

Great location, plenty of space for our family of five (2 adults, 3 tween/teen kids). Well stocked with kitchen essentials and soap/paper products so didn’t have to run to the store all the time. Nice assortment of games and books. Also appreciated maps and hiking guides. Quiet, safe neighborhood. Would definitely stay here again!

This is a very welcoming home with everything you need. Lots of extra things in kitchen too such as plastic bags, tea coffee etc. The location to the park and to town is excellent too. I gave four stars for cleanliness because sheets were left in dryer and under beds needed to be vacuumed better. We would definitely stay here again and encourage others to do so too! Great place!

We had a wonderful stay at Chickadee Cottage! This beautiful townhome is very spacious & clean. The kitchen is well-equipped with everything you could possibly need for cooking & dining in. We appreciated that it was stocked with all the supplies we needed for the week (paper goods, bags, soaps, detergents, etc..). There are even board & card games to enjoy. All of the little comfort & convenience items - from laundry baskets & throw blankets to notepads & pens - made it truly feel like a home rather than a rental!The location is great ... close to both downtown Bar Harbor and the Park entrance.Steve was helpful and quick to respond when we had questions. Would definitely stay here again!

Spacious, clean and comfortable pretty home

We have only positive comments. The home fit our family well and supplied everything we needed. So close to everywhere we wanted to go. Absolutely loved the area! Acadia was a stone’s throw away and we enjoyed an audio guided drive on the loop road. Every meal we had in Bar Harbor was delicious! Galyn’s was a favorite restaurant and Cafe this Way was yummy also!
