Nestled in the heart of Mount Desert Island, Somesville is the island’s oldest settlement and a quintessential example of classic Maine charm. Founded in the 18th century, this picturesque village sits along the shores of Somes Sound, a stunning fjard that cuts through the island, offering breathtaking water views and a peaceful atmosphere.

Somesville is known for its iconic white footbridge, a favorite photography spot that spans a tranquil mill pond, reflecting the village’s postcard-perfect beauty. The town is rich in history, with the Somesville Museum & Gardens preserving its legacy as the first European settlement on the island.

Despite its quiet, residential nature, Somesville is centrally located, providing easy access to both Acadia National Park and the surrounding towns of Mount Desert Island. Whether you’re drawn to its historic charm, scenic landscapes, or peaceful waterfront, Somesville offers a serene retreat in one of Maine’s most treasured locations.

This was such a lovely and perfect home for our Acadia trip! The location worked well being centrally located as we were driving around for hikes and meals. The kitchen was well stocked for 5 of us to cook dinner and breakfast together. And the communication with the team was great! Everyone was responsive and helpful as we planned and arrived. I highly recommend!!

Large, lovely home suitable for families. Had minor wear and tear you expect with a rental. Could use a deep clean (mold in showers, stains). Probably hard to do in busy season

The home was lovely and very clean. The property managers were very attentive to our needs however there were no working outside lights on the property. The house is in a dark location and the access was in the back of the property. There were small lights leading to the back yard but they were insufficient. There were no lights at the back door either. That needs to be corrected, It’s just dangerous.

Great location and amenities!

The house comfortably accommodated 9 of us (5 teens & 4 mothers) for a weekend basketball tournament on MDI. The photos represented the property perfectly! The price to stay 2 nights was fair and commensurate with the quality of the property! The mattresses were surprisingly comfortable! And the living room was large enough to accommodate a midnight dance party and TikTok video creation!! We'd definitely stay again!!
