Yes it was.The only issue was that the listing did not explain that the bathroom was down a flight of stares. If we were an older couple that could have posed a problem. Everything was good.

Easy Arborvine

I stayed at three places in Blue Hill during my vacation. Arborvine had no view of the water nor historic importance. Even so, it was the nicest and the most enjoyable place I stayed. Easy to do everything. Modern, well appointed, nicely furnished.

Cozy Getaway

The apartment was exactly as advertised and bigger than I expected. It was very cute and clean. It had everything we needed. It was about a 45 minute drive to Acadia through really charming coastal towns and nice to come back to the quiet town of Blue Hill. The only disappointment was the brewery next door was closed (I think just for the season). This was minor and we had a number of other wonderful walkable options. I recommend this highly!

Not accessible

The website did not disclose that the property was not accessible for the mobility impaired. The apartment was selected because it had a walk-in shower, but it had a steep staircase to the living space with no toilet upstairs. The incongruity was not disclosed. My 86-year-old husband, who has Parkinsonism, coped, with difficulty. The configuration should be disclosed prominently on its web description. The apartment, itself, was beautiful and well furnished. The electric fireplace was a delight during Tropical Storm Lee. It would be perfect for someone young and agile.

Clean, cozy, comfortable and well-equipped ... great location convenient to all things Blue Hill, and with an excellent restuarant on site. The gas stove was great for the cold, damp weather we had in late October. The only drawbacks were the bathroom is downstairs, and for a longer stay, a washer/dryer would be a benefit.

Super clean, orderly - and cozy. We loved the thoughtful amenities like the little gas stove in the living room which quickly took the chill out of the Fall air and the amazing skylight with motorized shade over the (very comfortable) bed which allows you to gaze at the stars at night. In sum, this is a very comfortable place and we'd definitely return.

We really enjoyed our stay at this apartment in Blue Hill as we celebrated our 45th anniversary. The apartment is comfortable, clean and attractive, and it is located within walking distance of many restaurants and shops in the town. We particularly enjoyed our dinner at Arborvine, which is just across the driveway from the apartment -- a delicious meal and gracious service (make a reservation in advance!) The host was very responsive, and the access to the apartment was easy and convenient. We highly recommend this lovely space for your getaway in Blue Hill.

A great location in Blue Hills with a well-appointed kitchen and outside seating. Very easy to find and access was a breeze. It wasn't terribly comfortable - furniture is pretty big (for us) and the bed was okay. (Linens were lovely.) The downstairs bathroom was inconvenient. A good place to stay while in Blue Hills, which is a great little town.

About the host

Hosted by John Hikade

Host profile image
John and Beth Hikade moved to Blue Hill in the 1970's. They opened the award winning Fire Pond restaurant at that time and stayed in the restaurant business until the early 80's when they started their family. John then turned his focus towards carpentry and became a well known restorer of beautiful the old homes that are so prevalent in the Blue Hill area- their current restaurant is perhaps his greatest masterpiece yet. When their children were older John and Beth decided to start a new restaurant called Arborvine, which in its 13 years has won many awards, and gained the same stellar reputation that the Fire Pond had all throughout New England.

Why they chose this property

When John and Beth purchased the building next door to the restaurant they knew they had their work cut out for them. With John's amazing carpentry skills and help from his 2 sons, the simple old doctors office next door was turned into a beautiful office space which is home to a local graphic design company (Borealis Press) and a gorgeous luxury apartment located in the center of Historic Blue Hill Village. Renters have found Blue Hill to have everything they are looking for from hiking, to dining and shopping, all right on the amazing Downeast Maine Coast.

What makes this property unique

During the summer months you have the convenience of 2 restaurants just across the white fence- The Arborvine with its award winning fine dining, or the more casual Deep Water BrewPub with Craft Beers, outside seating and a Pub style menu. There are fantastic farmer's markets held several times a week in town, plus wonderful local events like street dances with the local Steel Band, plays by the community theater companies, fairs, festivals, and of course the coast of Maine just waiting to be explored.
The cooler months bring a relaxed slower pace to the community. See Acadia national Park on skis, dine and shop. Many of the local shops and restaurants are still open, but you can also stay in and cook and curl up with a good book in front of the fire and watch the snow fly!
