Spacious Home Central Bar Harbor, 2 bath 5 bedroom

  • Ledgelawn Cottage, an eleven room 1890 Victorian home on Bar Harbor's historic Ledgelawn Avenue, is steps from all the attractions of downtown and a few minutes from Acadia National Park. Stroll to the village green, restaurants and shops, theaters, free Island Explorer bus, tennis courts, playground, and Sunday farmer's market. Acadia Park entrances are a few minutes' drive away. Ledgelawn Cottage provides comfortable inviting spaces for gathering with family and friends. The house opens with a large sunroom, the perfect spot to relax over morning coffee and begin the day. From there, the first floor offers five spacious rooms, including a beautiful new family room just completed, with a gas fireplace, large TV, and queen-size pullout couch that provides a completely private first floor bedroom. There is a large well-stocked kitchen for preparing family meals, a sun-filled dining room with puzzles and board games to play around the big dining table that seats eight to ten guests, a reading room with books for adults and children, and local maps and guidebooks, and a large living room with television and lots of comfortable seating. The first floor also includes a laundry, half bath, and separate shower room with large walk-in shower.
    The second floor includes an office with two desks, a full bath with shower tub, and four bedrooms. The master bedroom has a king-sized bed. There is a bedroom with a queen-sized bed, a room with a double brass four-poster, and a room with two twin beds. A wooden toddler bed and a pack-and-play are also provided.
    Outdoors, there is a big back yard with a gas grill, two picnic tables, and large patio with seating for ten. The driveway holds up to three cars.
    Ledgelawn Cottage is a non-smoking, no pet vacation home. Dogs cannot be considered under any circumstances, regardless of breed, due to severe family allergies. We welcome up to ten staying guests (including children and babies), with a maximum of fourteen people on the property at any time.

Eight Sassy Sixties

We took a girls trip to Bar Harbor to celebrate our 60th birthdays. The location of this home was perfect. Quick walk to restaurants and harbor. The host is very responsive and provides a charming home with lots of character. We enjoyed our stay. Be sure to read the guest book as there are great recommendations for restaurants. 15 minute drive to Acadia National Park.

Fall family vacation

We had a wonderful stay here for our fall family vacation. The home has plenty of space for families and little ones, comfy beds, and a well equipped kitchen. Lots of useful maps/brochures of town, a cute little “library” reading area (with even a thoughtful kids library). The location is perfect for walking into downtown restaurants and shops. All very walkable. Julie was a friendly, helpful and responsive host. We highly recommend booking!

Downtown Bar Harbor

This house was extremely clean and centrally located. It had plenty of space for our two families of four. It’s also very close to the town park which our group went to many times to play tennis and pickleball. The one quirky thing to know is that the downstairs bathroom is split into two rooms - one with a toilet and sink, and one with a shower and sink. There is a full bathroom upstairs. All in all, it was a fantastic property which suited our needs very well.

Charming 4 bedroom Victorian in Bar Harbor - clean and well equipped.

A charming clean Victorian "cottage" located in Bar Harbor a short distance from restaurants & shops, and a very short drive to Acadia NP Loop road. Kitchen is well equipped. Four separate bedrooms as listed. Bath in upstairs main washroom. Shower adjacent to laundry room on main floor, and a separate 2 piece washroom on main floor as well- all in all charming and functions well.

Comfortable, classic home with excellent Bar Harbor location

This is an old, classic home that has been tastefully and thoughtfully decorated and furnished. Our middle son had his wedding ceremony in Acadia and reception in Bar Harbor. As such we had two couples (family) and three adult sons stay at the house. Plenty of spacious rooms for gathering, eating, or 'separating' for a quiet reads. The weather was 'sketchy' so we could not use the beautiful patio or back yard, but also cute and comfortable. Kudos to the owners on a lovingly tended home.

Great location for family reunion

We enjoyed staying at Ledgelawn Cottage for a sibling family reunion. We had plenty of spaces for gatherings as well as comfortable rooms for sleeping. It was a warm week in Maine, but the Victorian house had great ventilation with ample big windows and fans, and every evening got cool. We even ate outside one evening at the picnic tables and bugs were not an issue. Julie was very communicative and the house has so many generous extras. The kitchen had excellent appliances, more than enough dishes, and great pots and pans. And being able to walk into town during peak season was stress-free and festive!

Great location in a cute city!

5/5. This property is in a wonderful location - walking distance from shops, restaurants & bars. Very close to Acadia also!! How cool is that? It’s a safe little area as well. The house matched the listing with plenty of space. There is no A/C; however, that is common in the area for many of the homes given the climate. There are lots of fans provided and keeping windows open cools the place down a decent amount. The host is so kind and accommodating - I can’t say enough wonderful things about her. She will make your stay comfortable and stress free. We loved our stay!

Overall fine

This was a great, large house that was very comfortable for the seven of us. Tip for anyone who has never stayed in Ledgelawn Ave—sleep with earplugs so you can have the windows open (you need that w no AC) so the trucks don’t wake you in the morning. Also, there a couple details that I hope the owner can look into—there was a big lobster pot, but no lobster cracker, pick or tools. There were extra pillows, but no extra pillow cases. No big impact, we got our own stuff. Lastly, the driveway ledge is a bit high so we put down pebble bags to protect our car from scraping. Other than these little details, the house is great and we enjoyed our stay immensely. Definitely recommend!

We loved staying in Bar Harbor and the house is a gem of a find. You can not beat the location, everything in town is walkable including the grocery store and bike rental. The new addition room is great for family time. We sat on the front porch every night. I will certainly recommend this place to anyone visiting MDI.
