About this property

Oceanfront Cape with dock on Bass Harbor

  • Homeport is a classic oceanfront New England farmhouse in Bass Harbour just minutes from Acadia National Park. Overlooking a working harbour with fishing boats drifting by, this peaceful retreat comfortable accommodates six guests with three bedrooms and two baths. The ground floor features a king bedroom with a private bath and walk in tile shower. A well equipped open concept kitchen and dining opens to a living area with beautiful views. Upstairs are two additional bedrooms, one with a king bed and one with two twin beds sharing a second full bath, making the home ideal for families or couples travelling together. A spacious deck at the front of the house faces the harbour and is the perfect spot for morning coffee or unwinding after a day exploring the Island. Guests can watch fishing boats come and go, and enjoy the kayaks and row boat available for your use right from the property. Located just 3 miles from the shops and restaurants of Southwest Harbour and about a 30 minute drive to Bar Harbour, Homeport is an ideal base for exploring Mount Desert Island.

Everything with the property was perfect and in a great location right on the water. The host was very responsive when communicating when my wife forgot her coat there and even shipped it back to us. Will definitely stay here again when we return.

Lovely Quiet Place on the Quietside

We really enjoyed our week in this lovely, quiet place. The views were amazing, the deck was perfect. The inside was very clean and nicely decorated. We slept like babies. We spent a lot of time on the water - a tour, the ferry to Swans Island ... hope to return.

Beautiful house and location

We stayed for a week. The house and location was beautiful. We used the kayaks a few times. We spent most of our time in Acadia NP (~35 minutes depending on which entrance you go to). Also about 30 minutes from Bar Harbor.

The Ideal Acadia Getaway

The harbor was such an unbelievable setting to take in from the back deck, especially at sunset. A five-minute walk to Thurston's made dinners very easy. We ate there every night. There are plenty of great hikes and sights to take in that are a 10-15 minute drive away and your main Bar Harbor and Acadia attractions are only 30 min away. Would definitely recommend staying here.

Quiet Side Gem

The property is lovely, with a bright deck overlooking a small fishing harbor. This perfectly equipped and spotless home hosted our quintessential Maine experience. The location is quiet, yet it's easy to access Acadia and Bar Harbor. We will definitely return!

Outstanding harbor house!

We all thoroughly enjoyed absolutely everything about this property! Location was fantastic! Just a short trip to Acadia National Park and Bar Harbor. Lots of hiking, great restaurants. View from the deck was wonderful! Kitchen fully equipped, great grill! The one and only thing we can mention are the twin beds in third bedroom....difficult to sleep on.

Simply Nice!

This property is situated on a quiet, working harbor in coastal Maine. The lobster boats, pleasure vessels and other boats are fun to watch. This property is very quiet and it is still close to the charming downtown of Southwest Harbor, and still a short drive to the attractions of Bar Harbor and Acadia National Park. You will like the house and the location. We certainly did!

Home Away from Home

This property was very clean, well equipped, comfortable, and the location was perfect. Stacy was easy to communicate with. Im sure there were many other properties in the area that we could have chosen for this vacation, but I can't imagine they could have been any better than this home. They even offer their guests live Lobsters to cook! Our thanks to the Stanley family. This vacation gave us a welcome relief from the Texas summer. Wish we could have stayed longer.
