Serenity place. Relax in a semi rural setting 18 mile from Acadia National Park
Open floor plan, updated, with new floor and trim, new comfortable furniture, gorgeous view. Accomodates four with two bedrooms (1 Queen, 2 twins). Full deck in front and small deck in back. Everything is new. It is in a wooded private location tucked just off a residential area, just a 1/2 mile from beautiful downtown Ellsworth, and just 18 miles from Acadia National Park. There are many vacation destinations nearby. You will have the run of the house. Come and enjoy. This is double wide trailer, about ten years old, but now completely renovated.
The full-size kitchen is fully stocked with eating and cooking utensils. It does not have specialty items such as a double boiler, but it has plenty of basics. We have a coffee maker for pots of coffee and k-cups. [Bring your own coffee]. We have A/C in the main room and fans in the bedroom. Bring or buy bottled water. The well water is potable, but well water does not agree with water your used to in other regions sometimes. The gas fireplace is non-functional for safety and cost issues. The enclosed deck is bi-level and large with chairs and tables. The abundant wildlife, dear, fox, turkeys, etc. are at no extra charge. Enjoy Maine.
Before departing, please: 1. Wash up dishes 2. Place trash in white bags, and place white bags in the trash receptical on the back deck inside the large black bag. 3. Sweep the floor. 4. Placed used towels and sheets in a pile on the bedroom floor. (The floor is vinyl so damp towels wont hurt the floor) 5. Check to see nothing was left. 6. Let me know of any problems. Safe travels

Really liked the location. The surrounding town had all the extras we wanted. The proximity to Acadia was very convenient. It was nice to have a place away from crowds to kick your shoes off and just relax.

Nestled in a quiet wooded area, the cottage is comfortable and clean with WiFi and Roku. Kitchen is well stocked though I would suggest a toaster oven be added. Overall, it was a lovely place to stay a few days (or weeks). I’d book it again.
Owner great communication & providing information to make our stay enjoyable. Property guiet & relaxing. The only suggestion I have for improvement is the mattresses probably could be a little better otherwise everything was fantastic!

It was a nice stay. Had a nice deck on the front. Nice inside well appointed.
We were quite comfortable in the house surrounded by trees (with gorgeous colors in Oct.) and delighted to find that Ellsworth is the perfect starting point to all places on the coast and Acadia National Park.
We very much enjoyed our stay; basic, clean, great host, near to Acadia National Park, the Maine Coast as well as Bangor. Ellsworth is a neat small town with lots of local non- franchise eateries, LL Bean outlet and even a Wally World (Wal Mart). We would stay there again.
The property was convenient to Bangor, Acadia National Park and Bar Harbor. The house was clean and comfortable. Steve was a very responsive host, and we enjoyed our stay.
It was a great stay at Steven's property. The twin beds might need a new mattress/topper, but the master bed room was excellent! It was close to Bar Harbor and Acadia and we had the best meal at Helens Restaurant. Would definitely come again!
Greatly enjoyed our stay. The home was large, clean and comfortable. Every consideration was taken as to our comfort, kitchen was well stocked and exactly like our home kitchens. Beds were great, bedding top notch, large decking was very inviting. This was one of the best Vrbo’s we’ve ever stayed at.
The house was comfortable and in a very quiet neighborhood. Convenient to Bar Harbor and Acadia National Park, and Ellsworth was a hidden gem of great restaurants and shops! Plenty of space for our party of 4, and everything we needed for amenities.
A true blessing to enjoy the sights, sounds, and abundance of early fall in Downeast Maine. This comfortable home served as home base for our vacation. It was clean, easily accessible and affordable.
Thanks for a great time.
Property was as listed. Convenient location to various Acadia National Park locations--halfway between the Bar Harbor and the Schoodic Penninsula. The house was easy to find and in a quiet neighborhood. Would stay at this property again.
We had a wonderful stay at Steven's quaint home in the woods. He was very helpful and responded to our questions quickly. Acadia National Park and Bar Harbor were stunning.
Everything was as advertised - nice property, super quiet area. We travelled to Acadia National Park each day, about a 30 minute drive. The house was clean and well kept. No complaints at all.
This really is a good “home base” for Acadia National Park. Drive isn’t bad and plenty of places to indulge in lobster. The place had everything we needed, was cozy and well kept. Love the extra touch of leaving the Maine blueberry jam! I’m hooked!
The house was very clean,had everything we needed, a nice quiet location too. Steven was very quick to respond to any questions we had. Would definitely recommend it!!
Nice accommodations! Very roomy and quiet. Out a little but no problem getting around. Host responded quickly! Only stayed 3 nights but was a good visit to the area.
Great location just outside Ellsworth and near Acadia NP. Owner was very responsive answering my questions. All four of us loved the unit. We may be back next summer.
Easy to acess, seemed to have about everything we needed, We cooked everynight, plenty of dishes. pans and bakeware. A washer/dryer would be nice,, but Eden's laundromat was clean and not too far away.. Easy drive to Acadia, enjoyed our trip.
