Camp Beauteous

This VRBO was fantastic! Very open floor plan that allowed us to reorganize halfway through our trip. We were able to visit friends in the area and then come back and do our laundry and relax. The property was extremely clean and had very good water. My husband has a PEG Tube, so issues like that are important to us. The kitchen was very nice and the host very helpful. Stay here, you’ll be glad you did.

Great place!

Kazzie is a terrific hostess and has made sure everything is how it should be down to the smallest detail. This is despite the name, a beautiful place to stay. Very convenient for exploring Acadia National Park and the Schoodic Peninsula. The check in/check out process couldn’t be easier. We will definitely stay here again on our next visit.

Great trip

The property was like a home away from home. So cozy and so well stocked and so comfortable. It was in a great location to explore Schoodic Peninsula and not far to hop over to Bar Harbor. Kazzie gave us such great recommendations and we did them all. Thank you Kazzie for such a nice stay!

Camp Hideous is Lovely

Host is very accommodating, pleasant, and provides quick responses to questions. The house is cozy and clean. What we first thought was a remote location turned out to be the best. Close to Schoodic Point which is a must see! Convenient to other points of interest, too, along with several locations to eat. Enjoyed our stay and will definitely reach out to Kazzie again if we head back to Maine. Thank you for your hospitality!

Convenient and comfortable.

Camp Hideous is conveniently located about 10 minutes from the Schoodic part of Acadia National Park. It is a very pleasant home with 1 bedroom and lots of sitting room and a nice deck. The kitchen is well equipped with everything one might need. There is even a washer and dryer. Karen was a very pleasant and thoughtful host.

Camp H is perfect

Camp Hideous is not hideous! It is the perfect house for a Maine vacation. Location-Close enough to Bar Harbor, Ellsworth and Acadia National Park but not so close to have to deal with the parking and crowds all the time. Very close to the quieter Schoodic Point with it’s rocky ocean outcrops, biking, hiking. Small coastal towns with lobster pounds, lobster co-ops, small groceries and pubs. We had many adventures including biking, hiking, lobster rolls and wine tasting all within a 15 minute drive of Camp H. The kitchen has all the dishes, pots, and appliances that you might need. Kazzie, the owner, has it stocked with paper towels, toilet paper, wraps, soaps, coffee, tea, spices, Pam etc. You do not need to haul or buy that kind of stuff. I liked cooking in this kitchen. Lots of dishes and flatware, paper goods. Appliances are new, granite counters. The mattress is very comfortable. Home is air-conditioned and there are ceiling fans. There are new pillows, plenty of towels and blankets etc. All are of good quality. Lots of windows which adds to the bright open feeling of the home. The water pressure is good and water is hot. Good size washer and dryer. Bathroom spotless. Everything is new. This is not furnished with grandma’s leftover furniture. Think Pottery Barn. The host, Kazzie, is communicative, and responsive to any questions. It’s the little extras and the positive welcome, ongoing text exchanges that made us so happy that we picked Camp H!
