Perfect location
This home was perfectly located to walk to all the stores, restaurants and bars in Bar Harbor. It was equally well located to go into Acadia multiple times during our stay. All the amenities you need are here for cooking, laundry and playing games. We had a wonderful stay.

Fall Girls Trip to Acadia
This home 2 blocks off Main Street in Bar Harbor and close to Acadia National Park was perfect for our needs. We hiked during the day and spent mornings and evenings in Bar Harbor. The Shore Path was beautiful and very close to the property. Plenty of bedrooms and bathrooms for everyone and extra space in the sitting and living room areas. One suggestion is the Hideaway Lane sign was very difficult to find in the dark when we drove in and the gravel drive had several potholes. I would return to this property if coming back to this area.
