Had a lovely stay enjoying autumn in Acadia and surrounding beauty. The view of bay and tides was stunning and having breakfast there each morning before heading out was perfect. Using the washer/dryer after a rainy day really helped!

The location is lovely and the view from the deck is amazing. As good as advertised. Everything was clean and well maintained. I think some of the bedding could be replaced. The place had a "1970's" vibe, which has its own charm, but don't expect a modern decor. Overall, we had a wonderful experience. Would have given a 4.5 for cleanliness (due to somewhat musty bedding), but choices were only 4 or 5.

The Frenchman Bay Oceanfront Getaway was a great house. We enjoyed sitting on the deck watching the tide go in and out. We even saw some seals one day. The house had everything that you need. Bar Harbor was about 40 minutes away which was not to bad. The beds were very comfortable. There was no AC, but the did have multiple fans. I would go back.

Frenchman Bay Ocean Getaway

The property is beautiful and the view is amazing. It is a remote, tranquil property where you can get away and totally relax. You are at least 45 minutes from Bar Harbor and Acadia National Park. The only issue is the WIFI at the property is extremely slow.

Away from the hustle and bustle

After a long day of sight seeing and boat tours it’s a great place to get home to. Great views, close enough to Ellsworth to get all the food and supplies you need. Only thing to improve are the beds. They are comfy but you roll to the middle..

Maine adventure

We enjoyed the beautiful and comfy waterfront cabin. The location is perfect for exploring Acadia! We saw bald eagles and ospreys fly right by the deck. We enjoyed the company of a chunky raccoon. Also, this is conveniently located close to a small market and Ruth & Wimpys for dinner.
