Spacious and Beautiful!
This property was perfect for our group. We were a family of four plus one girlfriend. The “kids” had the lower level and we had the upper. Pictures of the property were accurate and current and the home was as spacious as it looked. We enjoyed the large, well equipped kitchen with great views of the cove. The lower level was perfect for cooking our lobsters and also watching the Pacers in the NBA Eastern Conference finals - go Pacers! Location was great. While there was a bit of a drive to some of our activities it was never more than 30-40 minutes. We enjoyed two “quiet side” restaurants - the Next Level Sports Lounge and the Harbor Table. We also found a couple of great birding spots and hiked a great trail to a fire tower. So, we didn’t have to leave the quiet side to enjoy ourselves but we did venture over to Bar Harbor for a Puffin Cruise and some great food as well as a hike up Penobscot mountain. We ventured down to shore several times and on the last day for a quick “polar bear” plunge. LOL. Overall, the house was a great place to use as our home base but also to enjoy as a destination. There is a tennis court (rackets and balls in the house) but would have enjoyed having access to pickle ball equipment instead of tennis. Would recommend this house to all, especially older family groups!!

Epic Sunset in a Rustic Setting
This home was spacious and located right on the bay! The sunsets were unmatched and the little rock beach on the property was a hit with kids large and small. Be warned that the wifi might as well be non-existent and it's rustic - so don't expect much cell service either. But if you want to unplug and soak up some water views, this is the place for you.

Overall the property was as advertised. Everything we needed i.e. kitchen dishes, pans, towels, etc was available.
The evening sunsets on the deck were fabulous.
If I had a suggestion I would say it may be time to upgrade the “sitting” furniture. Might also add a TV in the lower level.
Guests should also know you are definitely in the “sticks” which was fine by us. Not all may be comfortable with that.
Internet/wifi was spotty which we knew going in.
We enjoyed our time there.
Thank you

Compass Rose
The view off the deck cannot be beat. Gorgeous. The front door deadbolt does not seat properly. Disconcertingly difficult to open on arrival. Hit and miss on kitchen utensils and dishes. The twin bedrooms are for small children only. Box springs uncomfortable. Too short. 2 adults were not comfortable. Window treatment in master sliding door still absent although Vacasa said it had been addressed.

Hi Julie,
Thanks so much for reviewing your stay at Compass Rose. If you have a moment, please consider sharing your positive experience on Google. We'd greatly appreciate it!

Great view on secluded side
Spacious home with beautiful view of lake, sunsets and stars at night. Bring all the food you need cause hannaford grocery is about 30 minutes away in bar harbor. No pizza delivery either but can order and pick up about 20 minutes away. We found the king and queen beds to be comfortable but not the twins. So nice to have 3 full baths! We had new iphones on different networks and mostly had 1 bar. Wifi is spotty for sure. With only 1 tv, that’s on the small side, families might find it a challenge if tv is important.

Disappointing
When they say quiet side of island - they mean it! You will not be running to the store to get milk, it is a 20 min drive away. The place can certainly host a crowd of people. The view is very nice. It has a well stocked kitchen and the place was clean but... it is a mismatch of furniture (the couches upstairs could be cleaned), the four twin beds had mattresses that were so old (you could almost be sitting on the floor), there was only one ceiling fan in the living room and a portable fan in the master - it was so hot (some of the windows did not have screens), there was barely any gas in the canister for the BBQ (they said to call them to replace it but hard to do when you are in the middle of cooking dinner at 7 p.m.), also the yard was overgrown - no easy way to the cove except through weeds (which there are ticks!).

Lovely home in beautiful setting
This home is spacious and beautiful. The setting is gorgeous and peaceful. It was a great place to relax with family and disconnect. It was an easy and pretty drive to Bar Harbor, Jordan Pond and Otter Cliff. The beds were comfy and we had everything we needed to prepare meals. The view from the porches is breathtaking. The only issue we had was the listing says WiFi is spotty but it was non existent. It was fine on the days we didn’t need to work but on work days we had to drive to Dunkin’ Donuts to work. Not the end of the world but if you’re planning on working from this location think again. Cell reception is spotty, calls drops and texts may or may not go through. You cannot use your phone as a hotspot because of the secluded location. Overall, we had a fantastic time and loved the home and property.

Nice house, absolutely no internet or cell connection
The house location is in a quiet area on the west side of Mount Desert Island. It is about a 25-minute drive to Bar Harbor but some of the smaller towns like Tremont and Southwest Harbor are quite close. We liked the quiet and privacy.
The kitchen was very well-stocked, which was much appreciated.
We had a couple of significant issues:
1) When we arrived, the internet service was completely out. The property manager, Vacasa, made only a token attempt to fix it, which failed. There is almost no cell service in this area either. It was very difficult or impossible to look up places to visit, etc. To navigate with Google maps, we just had to get in the car and start driving and eventually it would pick up. We didn't expect to stream movies, we just needed to be able to do some travel research and we could not. Vacasa offered us a tiny refund for this inconvenience.
1a) When Vacasa came to try to fix this, they somehow changed our door code. We had to call them to get a new door code assigned.
2) While you probably can't expect air conditioning, you should be aware that the upper level of this house gets very hot during the day if it is hot outside. We did travel during an unusual heat wave. They provided a single box fan. The lower level did stay cool all the time.
3) As of our stay, there were no curtains in the master bedroom (the deck is right in front of this window) or in the ground floor bathrooms. This seems like an easy fix for privacy and to keep the sun out.

Lovely Mt Desert stay
We really enjoyed staying at the Compass Rose. The house was lovely, the kitchen well stocked and the views of the water were gorgeous. We enjoyed being able to walk down to the small private beach to watch the sunset. We had a group of 7 ranging from 9-75 and everyone was very comfortable. As mentioned in the other reviews, the wifi is basically non-existent and the cell service very spotty. But we did not mind as we were enjoying the time being offline in Acadia. There is no AC but with Maine’s mild weather and the fans we were never uncomfortable. There are not curtains on every bedroom window so if you are sensitive to a bright room in the morning choose your room wisely. Overall, we would absolutely recommend and would stay there again!!! Such a peaceful and beautiful space!

Great place, great vacation, some clarification needed though...
First and most importantly, we loved the house. It was clean, GORGEOUS view, no neighbors nearby, and is a literal stone's throw from the water. Can't recommend it enough.
One issue: the wifi is nonexistent, which feels misleading considering the listing describes it as weak. We didn't get a signal all week.
I'll reiterate that we had a blast this week and that none of the issues listed above would, in and of themselves, preclude us from coming back to this property. What WILL stop us from coming back is Vacasa.
Vacasa manages vacation rental properties for those unaware, meaning the owner isn't involved and the communication goes through Vacasa instead. Normally this wouldn't be a huge issue, but on our second night we lost power, then the water shut off the following morning.
Long story short, there were two numbers provided - one turned out to be a wrong number, the other was the Vacasa guest services line. I talked to two different people, one when we initially lost power and another the next morning. I was informed by morning person that the night person didn't log ANYTHING from the 30 minute call, and the morning person also told us that, after I requested a refund so we could take my child and aging parents elsewhere, there was nothing they could do regardless if the power came back on, because they don't offer refunds after the start of the trip. I'm out of characters, but I steadfastly refuse to stay at another Vacasa-managed property.

Lovely if you want quiet surroundings and a beautiful view. Groceries and activities are far. Would have been a real plus if the house had a kayak or paddle board.

Beautiful location
Everything in the house was just as described. The location is wonderful. Beautiful views of the ocean and islands from the deck. The house is on the less busy side of Mount Desert, and it’s very quiet and peaceful, while still being very close to all the Acadia attractions, restaurants and grocery stores. We had a great week with lots of hiking, seafood, and beautiful scenery. The one thing that could have made the stay better would be blinds or shades in some of the bedrooms. The master in particular had no shades on the windows or sliding door. This created privacy issues, and was unpleasant when the sun is rising just after 5 am. Other than that, the house is wonderful.

Clean, comfortable, very enjoyable!
Our family of 8 ranging in age from 70 to 7 all very much enjoyed our stay. The house was meticulously clean. All paper products and toiletries were supplied. We appreciated that there was no automobile noise and very limited boat noise. The sunsets, seen through the trees were gorgeous.
We spent a lot of time on the lovely deck. An A+ vacation for everyone.

Love the Quiet side of the island
This lovely home made us feel welcome from the moment we first walked through the front door. The view was amazing. The views were breathtaking and the two porches with the gentle breezes made watching the sunset a nightly event. The home was very comfortable and well equipped for all. I can’t imagine a better location to spend a few days exploring nature, food, and quaint shops. Definitely a wonderful stay for everyone.

Comfortable stay with dramatic views
A very nice home in a magnificent location. the home was well laid out and kitchen was well stocked. Master bedroom was very comfortable with plenty of towels and bedding throughout.That said, furniture was a bit tired and downstairs beds "well used". The downstairs oven went into a fault code resulting in a beeping warning when we tried to use it and when we consulted the manual, the same code had been circled by someone, indicating that this had been a recurring issue. Otherwise, our group had a comfortable and enjoyable stay.

Great place to stay
The house was large enough for eight adults to spread out and was furnished nicely. Watching sunsets from the back deck was amazing. Whoever uses the master bedroom should be aware that there are NO curtains or blinds on the double glass doors leading to the large back deck, hence no privacy from anyone on that side of the deck. We asked our companions to please not go to that area. We all had a great stay here and would rent again.
