* Please scroll down to see our flexible cancellation policy.


Perfectly located, we are less than a mile to Acadia National Park Visitor Center and the free Island Explorer shuttle, 2/10ths of a mile to the seashore, and 3 miles to Downtown Bar Harbor's shops and restaurants.

Located on a private lane in lovely little Hulls Cove, a short walk takes you to the little beach at Hulls Cove, and our 5 local businesses.

Neighboring Acadia National Park’s scenic carriage roads are unmatched for walking biking and horseback riding. Its breathtaking mountain trails for hiking, and its lovely lakes for swimming and canoeing.

There is a wonderful sense of history throughout this spacious house, but we also love modern conveniences and comfort and feel that it all works together beautifully.
There are ceiling fans in every room, those in the bedrooms team up with our cool summer nights for maximum sleeping comfort.

There are 3 upstairs bedrooms, each have a queen size bed with a wonderful original bed head (we left the foot boards off in consideration of our taller guests). Next to the bedrooms is the upstairs bathroom with its lovely original wood wainscoting, marble washstand and large walk-in tiled shower.

There are 2 bedrooms downstairs; ‘Windward' has one queen and one twin size sleigh bed, ‘Southerly’ has 2 x-long twin beds. A sleeper sofa in the very large living room offers additional sleeping for two.

The sizable downstairs bathroom has a walk-in shower. Our bed and bath linens are all 100% pure cotton and laundered with skin-sensitive products. Soap, tissues, make-up remover, Q-tips and toilet paper are found in each bathroom.

A half bath and laundry are also conveniently located downstairs.

There is seating for 8 around the oak ding table, and for 5 at the bar, plenty of dishes, silverware, and glassware. The kitchen is well stocked with cookware, useful spices, a lobster pot, and all the usual under the sink items.

Enjoy outdoor dining on the large wrap around deck, with 2 sets of patio doors it provides lots of space for relaxing and dining. The grill is gas, and the propane is provided. We are baby-ready with a pack 'n play, baby gates, highchair, and booster seat. The lawn is a perfect place for children to play safely.

This is a family property that has seen a lot of love over the years, and we are delighted to share it with you.

*Our flexible Cancellation Policy:
Very simply, if a guest wishes to cancel their reservation, they will receive a full refund if or when those reservation dates re-book. If the dates do not re-book the deposit will not be refunded but we will offer a credit for a future booking.

Perfect location very close to Bar Harbor, Acadia entrance, and walking distance to lovely Hulls Cove and restaurants. Well kept home. Very comfy beds and bedding, kitchen very well stocked, and lots of space for our party of 10. Host is responsive and kind. Would be happy to return.

Quiet stay

We had a great experience here. With four adults and four kids 6 and under, it was spacious and served all our needs. The family lives behind the property and we didn’t see them at all, which didn’t bother us, but is certainly worth noting. The property owners were communicative and the house was sparkling clean.

We had a great time staying at this home. It was large enough for 8 people plus 2 under the age of two. We had nearly perfect weather and slept with windows open at night. Kitchen was fully stocked with everything we needed to cook at home. The entrance to Acadia is about 10 minutes away and Bar Harbor is about the same depending on traffic. Bar Harbor is a great little town with ALOT of tourists and horrible parking. You also have to pay to park on the street. We visited Jordan Pond and did the hike around the lake. It was tough and long but beautiful! The parking situation there is also awful, given the amount of people. We went to the Lighthouse both day and dusk. The fog rolled in at dusk and that was definitely something to see!!! The only suggestion I have for this rental is the road leading to the house. It has several crater size holes to maneuver through and if you try to avoid them, the tree branches scratch the car. The other is the deck needs some attention where boards and nails are popping up. The very BEST part of the house was the enclosed back porch. The two twin beds are super comfy and there are windows all the way around that we left open day and night. The cross breeze was amazing. I slept there all week with one of my grands and it was honestly some of the best sleep I’ve ever had! Rent this home if you are visiting BH and/or Acadia!

Wonderful place to stay

We really enjoyed our stay. The owner provided all basic needs (paper towels, toilet paper, etc.) which was awesome because we traveled from PA to ME and we didn't have to pack these items. The house was in a great location and a nice size for our family and friends. We hope to go back sometime.

Enjoyable Vacation Rental

My husband and I, along with another couple, thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the Sea Captain's house. The house was clean and well stocked with everything we needed. The location is great as well, very close to downtown Bar Harbor and Acadia National Park. And communication with the owner was excellent! I highly recommend this vacation rental!

Wonderful stay. Perfect location.

My family of 10 (grandparents, parents, kids) stayed here and had a wonderful time. The house was more than big enough and is in a great location to downtown and the park. The kids had plenty of room to play inside and out. The kitchen is a nice space. All amenities are in great condition.

Wonderful property and comfortable amenities

We had 8 adults and 1 toddler. Location was very close drive to downtown Bar Harbor and yet away from the large crowds. House amenities were plenty, house was clean, large and very good condition. 2 1/2 bathrooms a major plus. Owner was available to help and very friendly. Would stay here again for sure. Only concern would be if it’s hot and humid, no air conditioning. Thanks Trish.

Perfect location

We stayed here for a family trip to see Acadia Mountain and experience Bar Harbor. The house was very accommodating for our party of 8 adults. It had everything we needed including coffee filters and laundry pods (it’s the little things that impress me the most)! We never felt cramped and everyone had their own bed, as I had 4 adult children staying with me. Close to the mountain and trails as well as downtown Bar Harbor. House was clean, had plenty of towels and pillows, and kitchen had everything needed to cook meals. Loved the chickens and ducks that roamed around the yard too!

Hidden Gem

The house was plenty big and accommodating. Three of us were celebrating our upcoming 60th and had a blast. The rooster crows on time at 5:30 am and is the best alarm you could have. We did have a few days of rain which kept us from enjoying the deck but we did get a couple of days enjoying it. The house was so clean and had very nice toiletries. It was well stocked. Thank you to Trish Ropp for letting us enjoy your home.

Great Family Vacation Spot

Perfect vacation spot, tucked away and private enough for the kids (2-9) to play outside and ride their bikes. The location is also close enough to Bar Harbor and popular hiking spots in Acadia. Added bonus was the close location of Hull's Cove . The kids loved walking there during low tide and playing in the water. If you go during July 4th you can even see the fireworks from Bar Harbor! The house while older is well maintained, charming, very clean and well stocked. Trish has added a lot a small touches that were very conveient for our stay. There were extra towels, dish towels, paper products, soaps, primary seasonings and well stocked kitchen supplies. Trish was very accomadating during our stay and easy to communicate with. This is definitely a place we would stay again
