The place was perfect in everyway. We were a group of 10 and there was a space for everyone to find quiet time, each bedroom was nicely porportioned and the four bathrooms were positioned well. The home's setting was beyond expectations. Each night nature gave us a show of colors at sunset and each morning the call of the loons woke us. The house itself is well designed and decorated - it felt as though we were guests in a family home rather than a rental. All expressed interest in coming back!

This house was perfect for a week-long family reunion. It is so spacious and thoughtfully laid out that several families can have space to relax and common areas to hang. We loved the beautiful sunsets on the deck and paddling in the water. The host was very easy to communicate with and the caretakers were extremely responsive. The house is secluded and private but close to everything in Acadia and bar harbor. We absolutely loved our stay here!

Our family of 7 adults had an amazing time at this incredible property! The location was amazing; right in the middle of everything. The house is located on a quiet tidal cove with ever changing views and abundant wildlife. Several in our group took out kayaks every day and loved it! The kitchen was well appointed coming from someone who cooks, which helped us feel right at home. The rooms were sized perfectly for large family groups and everyone had privacy, which was nice as the first part of our week was storming and rainy. We played games, ate well as a group and enjoyed a roaring fire. We enjoyed hiking and biking, taking in all the area had to offer. We had some questions on our first day and both the owner and the caretaker were super responsive and helpful, but never intrusive. The house was impeccably clean and comfortable.We highly recommend this property! We will definitely be back!

We were 4 generations on a family vacation. The property was excellent: beautiful sunsets, plenty of room to spread out, included kayaks, paddle boards and life jackets. Excellent shore to scramble around on and view the tide pools. Full game closet for the rainy days, reliable internet and wifi.I communicated with Sam the owner a number of times, he was always responsive and helpful.

We just arrived home after our stay and amazing is an understatement. The house is the most well stocked VRBO I’ve ever stayed at, especially with things for families with small children. The location was perfect with a short drive getting you to several great places around the island. Definitely recommend. Pick this place for the sunset views alone.

Incredible Maine

We could not have loved this home more — with 7 adults and 3 toddlers, we all had our own space inside while nestled in an idyllic park-like environment. Kitchen had everything we needed for many family-style meals around the huge eat-in kitchen table. Communication with the owner and on-site caretaker was a breeze both before and during the trip, and they made sure travel cribs were available for the kids so we could travel without. Can’t recommend this home enough!

This is an absolutely beautiful location with a comfortable house and many amenities. Regardless of age or interests, everyone of us enjoyed our stay. The rocky shoreline was a big hit with our younger set, while the adults marveled at sunsets from the deck. We had easy access to Acadia; bird watching throughout MDI; a boat trip to see nesting puffins and playful seals; hiking to Cadillac Mountain to watch the to the sunrise; and a catered dinner on the deck. This was a very special vacation for all of us.

I appreciate Oleg's 4 star review, which I am confident would have been 5 stars had I not committed a VRBO rookie mistake. He and his group were gracious about my somehow not being aware they were coming! A late afternoon call from the caretaker said " some renters are here, reservation in hand." Oleg's wife and I talked and quickly figured out the solution. I put all 5 couples up for the night in a nice Bar Harbor Hotel, paid for dinner, and refunded 25% of their rent. I believe I atoned for my error. The linchpin of the recovery was the cleaner. She was able to deploy someone the next morning and and prep the house. Christmas bonus for sure. I do appreciate Oleg deducting only one star and not publicly shaming me for my mistake. Thank you Oleg. Thank you Tatiana. I'm delighted you enjoyed your time in the house.

This home was the perfect place to come back to at the end of a day playing on Mount Desert Island.

The Best Family Vacation Ever

This house was perfect for our family vacation in every way! The house was spacious, comfortable and beautifully equipped with everything we could possibly want or need. The views are spectacular from every spot on the property and the entire property is amazing! We had such fun kayaking, swimming, hiking, paddleboarding, cooking and playing games that we didn't need to go anywhere else. We did, of course, because there is so much to see and do on Mt. Desert Island and this house is perfectly situated for everything.Also, I can't say enough about our host, Sam! He was so welcoming, responsive and helpful! We loved this house and the surrounding property so much that we're all trying to make our houses feel the same way. An impossible task but we'll work on it until we have the chance to rent this house again!

Vacation Perfection

We have been fortunate to rent a number of vacation homes all over the world and this was one of our favorites. The location of the home could not be better. Directly on Somes Sound, it is in the middle of Mount Desert Island and close to restaurants and shopping in Bar Harbor and the numerous attractions of Acadia National Park. We also kept busy at the home site itself with kayaking, swimming (the water is much warmer here than on the coast), paddle boarding, nature walks, and enjoying the picturesque sunsets on the deck overlooking the water. The caretaker was helpful, attentive, and available for our needs. The owner was very quick to respond to messages and questions. The spacious, well maintained home is a perfect blend of modern convenience and rustic comfort. It is obvious that the family cherishes the home and we are grateful that they shared it with us.

Amazing property on Some Sound

This home sits on the kind of land you can no longer buy. It is on 15 choice acres right on Some Sound with magnificent views from almost every window. It is roomy and comfortable with the patina of age and lots of character. You can tell it is the well-loved house of an extended clan who gathers here each summer. It reminded me of my grandparents’ home, in all the best ways. It is not cutting-edge or fancy but it is very lovely. We enjoyed every minute of our mid-October stay. Taking their boats out on the water was a particular highlight of our stay. Sam was my main point of contact from the family and he could not have been nicer or more responsive. I would highly recommend this home.

The perfect Acadia vacation rental

The property exceeded my family’s expectations and provided the perfect location to enjoy all that Mt. Desert island and Acadia have to offer. The rooms are comfortable and provided ample space for everyone to spread out. The kitchen was perfect for cooking and allowed for our large party of 10 to eat meals together. The kayaks allowed us to explore the sound and hunt for schools of mackerel in the morning. The large deck and wooded property were perfect for bird/nature watching, including waking up to the sounds of loons each morning. Samual was incredible to work with during the booking process and was very responsive to all our questions during our stay. He clearly enjoys being able to share a place he and his family love with others. In addition, Garrett (the onsite grounds keeper) provided quick, in person help when needed. My family has a long, multigenerational history visiting the island, and we had a truly wonderful and magical week that meant a lot to everyone.

Great Gathering Spot

The house is just as it looks in the pics. You can tell from the minute you walk in that there have been a lot of fun times had here. The location is amazing and the view from almost every room is spectacular. We had several fires out on the point as the sun set over Somes Sound, which I will never forget. The owners were easy to work with and the property manager was great. We did use Chef Greg one night, which I'd highly recommend. Having said all this, there are some rustic elements. This house is a grand old dame, but she's probably due for a facelift, particularly when it comes to the bathrooms. Don't hesitate to book this place. We are a family of 8 that created some priceless memories here that we will never forget. Thanks to the Hargraves family for sharing this treasure with us.

Come see for yourself what makes Small Cove Point so special! Commissioned by our grandfather in 1961 and built of native pine, Small Cove Point is where our entire family gathers during the month of August to reconnect, unwind, and just have fun amidst the spectacular beauty of Acadia National Park and its environs.

This is a property used by all 14 of us in August: 6 kids, 7 adults, and 1 grammy split between the Main House and the Cottage. We bring our dogs, one of which sheds fur mercilessly. (No, we do not allow pets, no matter how sweet, well trained, or well behaved. This is non-negotiable and based upon past experience).

It is clean, well-cared for, and well equipped. The furniture and upholstery are updated regularly, including recent mattresses, sheets, blankets, pillows, and towels. We also installed a modern HVAC system in 2021: each room has individual heat and A/C controls. It is a wonderful house, a wonderful property, and a wonderful place to be. While you may find clues that others have been there before - a finger smudge on a window for example - please know that everything is clean, tidy and squared away.

The cleaners are thorough and use antibacterial products. Yet you may come across a dog hair in the living room, mismatched silverware, Tupperware without a lid or a chipped china plate. You may also find canned goods, an unopened box of quinoa or gluten-free spaghetti, a bottle of hot sauce, maybe a half bag of perfectly good coffee. Help yourself.

We work hard to ensure that this well-loved and well-used home is well maintained. Please remember that while you are a paying guest you are a guest nonetheless. I will work hard to correct any deficiencies.

Voici pourquoi l’hôte a choisi cet hébergement

Where else can you be on the water and surrounded by granite mountains? There is plenty of room to spread out: in the house, on the property, and throughout Acadia. Take a swim in front of the house, watch the wildlife and boats from the deck, take a hike in the Park, a stroll through Northeast Harbor, a water taxi to Isleford (Little Cranberry), Great Cranberry, Swans Island or Frenchboro (Long Island).
