About this property

In-Town, Residential & Quiet, Walk to Shops, Ocean and Walk & Bike into Acadia!

Chickadee Cottage is tucked away and set back from the street on Ledgelawn Avenue, just outside the Acadia National Park entrance and a quick walk to shops, restaurants, the Sunday Farmer's Market, the ocean and the fare-free shuttle bus. Adjacent to the owner's cottage, Chickadee provides a convenient location to Acadia and downtown Bar Harbor.

License Number: VR1R26-061

This cozy 2-story, 3 bedroom cottage features:
1 queen bedroom (second floor)
1 double bedroom (second floor)
1 bedroom with two twin beds (first floor)
1 full bathroom (upstairs)

The first floor features a living room, eat-in kitchen, washer/dryer, and "mudroom" for shoes, bags, jackets, backpacks and other small items.

Amenities include kitchen appliances, dishwasher, washer/dryer, microwave, toaster, coffee maker, cookware, dining ware, all bed linens, bath towels, and gas grill and outdoor, shaded seating area. There is one Roku-ready TV, DVD player, and WIFI.

There is a heat pump on the main floor that provides cooling to the house on extreme heat days. This cottage does NOT have "icy cold AC"-if that is an amenity you require, this may not be the spot for you.

Parking:
This rental allows ONE CAR ONLY.
There is ONE parking spot in the driveway and NO on-street parking. We do not rent to parties who plan to bring 2 cars.

Chickadee Cottage is within walking distance to everything the village of Bar Harbor has to offer: a five-minute walk to the Sunday Farmer's Market, the YMCA which has an indoor pool, fitness room, and indoor gym available by the day, an outdoor playground, public tennis and pickle ball courts, basketball court, dining, museums, the Shore Path, the Sand Bar beach, the town pier, Village Green, and the Island Explorer Bus hub. Everything is at your fingertips! It's also just a 1/2 mile to the Acadia Park Loop Road, and merely a five-minute walk to a host of Acadia's trails. You can walk or ride your bikes right from the cottage and enjoy Acadia within minutes.

*Graco Pack and Play 'crib' with sheets, is located in the closet in the Sea Room, making this an easy place for parents with young children to stay.

Registered guests (those on the signed rental agreement) are the only guests allowed on the property day or night. Please make sure to account for your rental party accurately when submitting a request. The cottage can only accommodate a rental party of up to 4 adults (even if they are adult "children.")

About the host

Host profile image

Property #: VR1R25-16

We have lived in Bar Harbor for over 30 years. Marie began working at the Jordan Pond House during summers, earning money to pay for college. After traveling to France to visit family, a road-trip across the United States, and finishing graduate school she moved to MDI for good. Kyle came to Acadia after graduating from college in the South. He planned to work in different national parks across the country. After working in Glacier National Park in Montana, he headed to Acadia for one season, where Marie and Kyle's paths finally crossed. The rest is history! We feel lucky to call this amazing place home, and could not imagine raising our family anywhere else.

Why they chose this property

This property is close to everything wonderful about in-town Bar Harbor, but still quiet and residential-the best of both worlds. You can sleep with your windows open and smell the ocean when you wake. It is modern, clean, uncluttered, and filled with all the amenities you'll need to make your stay relaxing. We have a personal and professional knowledge of the park and MDI, and would love to share our favorite spots to enjoy the park and island with you.

What makes this property unique

You won't find an easier, more convenient place to stay in Bar Harbor, if you are a family or a couple! You can walk to the Great Meadow Path right from the cottage, or hop in your car to access the Park Loop Road in 5 minutes, at the end of our street.
