Good location, lots of rooms
My husband and I and our 3 young adult children and a friend stayed here in early-mid August. Somesville is kind of in the middle of Mt. Desert Island -- Bar Harbor side and the Echo Lake side are about equidistant. There are 6 bedrooms so everyone could spread out. The property is off what seems like a private road. Somes Pond is right outside, so our kids used the canoe to explore the pond. The fireplace was very nice to use on the one rainy day and a couple of cool nights.
The cons: Bar Harbor is overrun w tourists at this time, so demand outstrips supply at every turn (hotels, restaurants, and esp parking). You feel like everyone is trying to make a buck off the out-of-towners. So the price is high for what you get, basically everywhere. For this house, there are only 2 bathrooms, only one of which has a shower. The front door doesn't lock, and many of the windows don't either. We didn't have anyone come in and steal our stuff, but I kept worrying about that. The seat on the canoe was broken so my husband rigged one with a bungee cord he found in the barn. The kitchen faucet is old and splashes everywhere. The upstairs sink is the very old fashioned kind where one faucet has hot water and the other faucet has cold water, so you can't ever get warm water. The cleaners had not emptied out the ashes from when the fireplace was used before us, so we had to do that. There is no air conditioning, but wasn't an issue during the time we were there.
