Perched on a granite ledge in the historic village of Hall Quarry this 2+ bedroom house looks over Somes Sound and Acadia National Park.

Beautiful house overlooking Somes Sound! we loved having breakfast on the porch watching boats and birds! convenient location, quiet but 10-20mins to hiking trails, Bar Harbor, 5mins from SW Harbor. Host was very accessible, responsive. This is our 2nd time staying at this place, we'll be back.
Large bright home with plenty of comfortable seating inside and out. Many upgrades to the home, beautiful water view and access to the National Park is very quick. Lots of hiking choices from hard to a stroll.Ocean dips are close or beaches not too far-sand or rock. .
Wonderful property for six people. Very good location with a beautiful water view. Excellent seating inside and outside for everyone to enjoy summer in Acadia. Excellent hiking nearby and rock beaches for easy access to the ocean at all tides. One family member has mobility issues and had no issues getting around indide and out.
Very quiet. Deer munching on apples in the surrounding grass and field. Beautiful view of the water! Home well furnished and included lovely plants-some of which were flowering. Property manager was very helpful. We'll be back!!
The house was very cozy. The view is beautiful. It was close to Acadia and Bar Harbor. There is only one shower available. There is a full bathroom with a double sink and shower. The second bathroom is a half bath with a sink and toilet. We made it work for five adults. You have to go through one of the bedrooms to get to the third bedroom with a daybed and futon bed.
We absolutely loved the idyllic setting on the quiet side of MDI. Highly recommended for families that want to enjoy Acadia but not necessarily spend much time in Bar Harbor.We enjoyed a great week of hiking, biking, and sea kayaking, all within easy reach.
Such an amazing view, we ended up spending every morning on the deck just looking out and sipping coffee. The house itself has a lot of mid century charm and is very comfortable. The neighborhood is quiet and cute and fairly convenient to Southwest harbor. A bit of a drive to bar harbor.
Our seven night stay was so comfortable and cozy. Beautiful views of Somes Sound from deck, living room, kitchen and master bedroom. All beds were very comfortable. Neighborhood was quiet with deer walking through yard most evenings. Wi-Fi worked and we used our AppleTV brought from home to stream movies. Easy access to Bar Harbor, Acadia and Park Loop. We can’t wait to return!
When you get out of your car, the view just knocks your socks off, and the same view is available from many windows inside. The house is very private and is comfortably furnished and, except for the lack of a dishwasher, has all the modern amenities. The owner is very nice, and accommodating. I would definitely go back again.

Spring Cleaning
The home is spacious, comfortable and spectacular views from main living areas. Grass had not been mowed and owner said it was due to so much rain. We would have enjoyed using the grill but no propane. There was mouse dirt all throughout the kitchen including inside the oven, on dishes and in cupboards. Obviously no one did spring cleaning. We had to wash everything before using. You need more practical bowls and cookware. To say the kitchen is fully stocked is not a fair representation of what was available to use. T.V. not working on arrival and to say you don't know what to do isn't an answer. Your remotes all needed new batteries. This should be checked before your guest arrives and also not hidden for us to have to look for. Towels and linens very nice. Better warn folks not to use that back deck. When you tell folks there is a grocery store near by please give the name and or address. We went the wrong direction in search of the closest "market." Beautiful area and very quiet.
This is the first time we stayed in this area - usually stay in Bar Harbor center. This was very central to all locations and hiking and was nice discovering restautrants in Southwest Harbor. the view of the Sound was amazing!
Bobby was very helpful. We had a glitch in our plans and she was very helpful.
We had a great stay. The neighborhood is very interesting. The views amazing and the house was much bigger than we thought. A great family house. Thank you Bobby.

Awful Experience
1. Lights in living room didn’t work
2. TV didn’t work - my husband had to go in the basement to check circuit breakers
3. No hot water
4. Awful communication with property owner
5. Dead mice and feces in basement
Property owner expected my husband to be the repairman on our vacation. Not happening. We left to rent a hotel after one night and now are fighting for a refund.
Also, you have to DRIVE to a boat yard to kayak, it’s not within walking distance.
Really enjoyed our stay. The views are amazing overlooking Stones Sound. The house was clean and larger than we anticipated. Great yard and deck and ideal location for exploring the island and Acadia National Park. Bobby the owner was responsive and a pleasure to deal with.
Quiet location with a beautiful view of sunrises and sunsets from the wrap-around deck, and convenient to all parts of MDI. Enjoyed the views of boats and wildlife in Somes Sound. We were even visited by a family of white tailed deer eating the apples in the yard. The gas fireplace was nice to come home too on the late October nights. Would love to come back! Thanks Bobby:)
We had a fantastic stay on this property, all the comforts of home! I especially loved the gas fireplace, it quickly took a chill off of us after a day of exploring the island on a cool blustery day! I definitely will be recommending this property to anyone interested in our trip to Mt. Desert Island.
Nous avons apprécié la localisation, la proximité des sentiers de randonnée, la vue sur le Sound, la compagnie des chevreuils, le potager où nous avons cueilli des tomates, et la propreté impeccable de la maison.
Great location, beautiful views of boats and water from living room and awesome rear deck, very quiet and secluded. Well maintained with all essentials. Perfect location in Downeast Acadia for visiting all parts of Park and quaint coastal harbors and towns. The owner was very helpful with recommendations for places to see and dine. Highly recommend this home for couples or family.
I rented this property for 1 week with my mom, 2kids and husband. We wanted a place with views and ability for my son to fish easily. The location is central to SW/ Acadia trails and close to Northeast and Seal. Its a great location for many hikes on the SW side and a short car ride to SW high street. The boatyard was a nice bonus for my fish loving soon who could walk down and cast for a couple of hours in the afternoon. Hall Quarry is a quite street but the main road is a bit tough for young kids on bikes so we rode to the carriage trails. The house it self has a grandma's house feel in the best way. We were comfortable with the room size and layout. My son stayed in the room that linked ours but it was very spacious and he loved having a water view. My mom and daughter enjoyed the other 3rd room and had a private half bath to themselves. It is a bit of a throwback but clean and perfect for our needs. Barbara was helpful and a perfect host.
