We enjoyed our stay at this beautiful, comfortable property. It was a great home base for all of our Acadia adventures and had many stores/restaurants within a short drive as well. Everything we needed to enjoy our breakfast and a few dinners in was provided and a nice bonus was the office which I used for a work day. Thank you for sharing this beautiful property! We would definitely book again next time we visit.

Hidden gem outside of the busy areas around Acadia and Bar Harbor. It was so nice to come to a beautifully upkept space with all amenities available. Everything was very clean and the beds were comfortable. You can tell the space was very carefully thought through by the hosts when it was remodeled. We really enjoyed our time here and will definitely re-book next time we are in the area!

We had a wonderful stay at this beautiful Vrbo house. It was clean, comfortable, and well-appointed - everything we needed for a perfect family getaway. My wife, son, and daughter-in-law all loved the space and amenities. The location was ideal for exploring Acadia National Park during the day, and we enjoyed the convenient access to nearby restaurants and shopping in the evenings. The hosts were excellent communicators and made the check-in process seamless. We appreciated their local recommendations and responsiveness. This rental provided the perfect home base for our family vacation!

Host had excellent communication and left us bags (you have to pay for bags at stores) and chocolates. There are two rooms with one that had two queen/full beds, each room had Tv's, air conditioning, and USB plugs in the lamps. Do not hesitate to stay here it is prime location and beautiful home.
