Great house in an idyllic location

A group of three couples used this house as a basis to explore the area around Ellsworth/Arcadia/Bar Harbor. Very close to lots of great things to visit and just out of the way enough to feel private and secluded. Beautiful house and property. We loved our time here!

Magical Stay in the Schoodic Area

We loved our stay here: the home blends into the forest and allows the ferns, forest and water be the feature. Our family of 4 and pup were comfortable and I loved the master with en suite shower facing the forest. Ample linens, kitchenware, along with outdoor seating and hammocks to spend time and spread out. We enjoyed the tiny beach on the bay and went swimming and took floats out almost daily. Thank you for a magical stay!

Beautiful House on the Water

This house is beautiful. It is set back from the road and private. The master bedroom windows look right out onto the water. Acadia National Park, restaurants and stores are a short drive away.The kitchen is very well equipped. We do a lot of cooking and cooked here 11 out of 12 days. The host/owner is warm and responsive. She made sure our stay was very comfortable. This house is pet friendly and very clean. We loved bringing our two pets on this trip. We stayed over Christmas and New Years and the scenery was beautiful.We very much enjoyed our stay and plan to return. We highly recommend this house and this host!

Great stay at this mid-century gem.

We had a wonderful week at this unique home on Taunton Bay. Quiet, peaceful setting with water access and views of the Bay. We loved showering in the spacious walk-in shower with windows looking into the woods. The kitchen has everything you could need, although I wished it had a slightly larger fry pan/cast iron skillet for family cooking. Plenty of things to do nearby, but our favorite was breakfasts on the huge deck with water view. Acadia and Bar Harbor are close by as well as Lamoine Beach which might just be one of the areas best kept secrets. There was great swimming and they allow dogs! Also, don’t miss the granite sculpture garden off the same road as the house. It was very cool. Great communication with the host during our stay whenever we had a question. Thanks for letting us stay at your little plot of paradise!
