Enjoy the perfect location away from it all with quick access to the highlights of Mount Desert Island. The is a large home with every amenity you could hope for. With one bedroom and full bath on the main floor and four bedrooms and two baths on the second floor, there is plenty of room for your whole family. The large great room features a beautiful wood paneled vault ceiling and quiet views into Acadia National Park. The dining room has seating for12, plus more seating at the large kitchen island. The kitchen is designed for cooking and has lots of space for multiple cooks to work together. We have outfitted the kitchen with all the essentials! If you don't want to spend your time eating indoors, take advantage of the large grill and enjoy dinner on the large deck looking into the park. The front porch is the perfect spot for a quiet cup of coffee or listening to the ocean during a storm. The unfinished basement is ready for play and relaxation with couches, games and a large screen tv. Reservations will be fully refundable until final furnished photos are posted in mid May.
Seal Harbor is the secret gem of Mount Desert Island, located just a quick drive to Bar Harbor, but well outside the hustle and bustle so you can escape from it all. This home is as close as you can stay to the park without camping! The great room looks back into the serene woods of Acadia and you can enjoy our private trail that takes you right to the Carriage Trail system. You can walk, ride or run to the famous Jordan Pond House and never have to fight for parking! It is also a short walk to shops in Seal Harbor, The Lighthouse restaurant and Seal Harbor Beach. Northeast Harbor is also a short drive away where you can find more quaint shops and restaurants. Seal Harbor has a stop on the Island Explorer Route for convenient access during peak season.

Why they chose this property
Our family has been vacationing on Mount Desert Island for over 30 years. Seal Harbor is the BEST spot on the whole island, so we were thrilled when we had the opportunity to build our dream vacation home here. We are in a very quiet section of the island with quick access to trails, easy access to the best beach on the island, all while being just a short drive to Bar Harbor!
What makes this property unique
You can walk right out the back door and into the park!
