Anniversary vacation

The check-in process couldn’t have been any easier and Kristian was a very accommodating host. The beds were very comfortable and the house was well stocked with equipment and spices. The view from the deck was beautiful!

Daughter's 16th birthday vacation

We absolutely loved our stay! The home is beautiful and the amenities are awesome! Our youngest traveler was 16 and our oldest was almost 80 and everyone was beyond happy with the home. The view was the cherry on top and we will cherish this family trip for a lifetime!

“2024 family vacation

We very much enjoyed our stay. House was well equipped, clean, beautiful view, and beds were comfortable which is always important. We all slept well. We made s'mores by the fire pit and made great use of the kitchen. We love family hikes and did a lot of hiking near the Acadia/Bar Harbor area. Thanks for letting us stay at your rental home. SG

Simplify is superb

Everything you could want in a Maine house: amazing views, more than ample living space, fully equipped kitchen (better than our home), cozy and quiet, close to shopping and restaurants, and a ping pong table! Our family loved it. Not only a place to rest and relax, but also a perfect place to entertain. They deserve all the highest of ratings and our strongest recommendations. We would return in a heartbeat!

Beautiful home with beautiful views

From the moment we pulled in we were awed by the beautiful, serene views. Opening the front door, the inside of the house complimented the outdoors (calm, serene and beautiful). The kitchen was wide open and had amazing counter space. The house was stocked with absolutely anything we would have needed. The basement was perfect for our teenage boys, equipped with a ping pong table. The fire pit area was perfect and we used the large driveway area to play yard games. Now about the dogs... We loved that our puppies were so welcomed, with the fenced in area being a great addition to the outside yard. The beds were very comfortable and everything was very clean. The host left a detailed note with directions and recommendations. We love this area. Thank you for a great vacation!!
