The property was clean and we loved all the deer in the yard each day! We enjoyed our stay. Tina was very receptive when we sent a text asking a question. It was spacious which was good since it was two families traveling with two children under two.

Perfect Place To Stay for Acadia Visit

Our family of 6 were very comfortable in this home. It had all the amenities we needed and the host was super helpful with local tips, etc. It is a short, easy drive to local attractions. Also a short walk to the nearby lighthouse. Peaceful property to relax inside or outside. Would definitely recommend!!

Great location and wonderful house

The house was away from the crowds but close enough to be convenient. It was perfect for our multifamily group and really felt like we were in Maine. The house is in a quiet area with lots of woods and away from any crowds, but easy to get to the activities and places we wanted to visit. It was the perfect balance of the what we wanted for our Maine trip. It was family friendly, spacious, clean, and comfortable. Would definitely stay there again on our next trip.

Great for a family vacation!

Came up with our family of four plus my mother, great house with lots of room for everyone to have their own space. The porch is beautiful and we really enjoyed just sitting out enjoying the sounds on the quieter side of the island. There was even a family of deer who came through several times. Short walk to the Bass Head Light and right on the Island Explorer route.

Had a wonderful stay

Tina was the ideal host, helpful and communicative. We had a great time staying here. There was plenty of space for our grown family of five. It is a perfect spot for reading and relaxing, playing cornhole or basketball, watching the birds and wildlife in the yard, and as a base for for exploring Mount Desert Island. The house was very clean and comfortable and the free park pass was a nice touch. The Hansens store is close by for provisions, and Gotts is just a minute further (they also have pretty good pizza). We were only there for a few days but already have many good memories from this trip!

Best place ever

This property was clean and well maintained. There were five of us total and the place was big enough that we all felt comfortable. The kitchen was well stocked with pots, pans, plates etc. Out of our five day stay we cooked in 3 nights. The beds were very comfortable (which can be a vacation breaker) the outside grounds were well maintained, and we even saw deer every day and a mother deer and her fawn playing in the yard. We were about 30 minutes from Bar Harbor which was just right for us. We can't wait to go back again and stay longer.

Very comfortable, restful house in great location

This house was perfect for our family group of 6 adults as we visited Acadia. Just minutes away from Bass Harbor Lighthouse, Wonderland Trail, great lobster restaurants. We enjoyed being on the "quiet side" if Mt Desert Island. But all the sights on the other side of the island were an easy drive and we were able to visit them, too. Loved the backyard firepit/chairs, bedroom configuration, well equipped kitchen. Everything was spotlessly clean. We visited during a spell of particularly hot weather and we did appreciate the house's fans. If you come during hot temps, you may wish to consider bringing additional small fans for comfort. We highly recommend this house for an Acadia visit, particularly since the host provided use of a park pass!

Peaceful, spacious retreat

Great rental! Our family of 5 had plenty of room to relax and we had everything we needed in a lovely setting. The house was clean and well stocked. There is plenty of deck space and we enjoyed sitting outside to enjoy the peaceful backyard. It was nice to be so close to the lighthouse and a few easy trails (Wonderland and Ship Harbor). The Seawall picnic area is close also and a nice place to take in the view. While the drive to other popular Acadia spots is about half an hour, that was fine with us and we were glad to be staying on the quiet side of the island away from the crowds. There are some good restaurants close by- Archie’s was the best for amazing lobster rolls and a nice setting! We had good communication from the owner and everything was smooth! We will recommend this place to others.

Comfortable and spacious

We very much enjoyed our stay here -- the house is spacious, clean, quiet, and exactly as described. We loved roasting marshmallows over the firepit and sitting on the back deck, either with the birds for coffee in the morning or watching the sun set over the trees in the evening. We love the quieter side of the island and hope to be back!
