Elizabeth and Robert are wonderful hosts, and we loved the personal touches they provided. Fresh flowers and herbs greeted us in the bright kitchen upon arrival. We immediately felt at home and could not have asked for a better experience. We loved the central location as we could easily get to wherever we wanted to go on the Island.

Aug 15, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Beautiful Property and Great Location This house was great and had everything we needed to make our stay comfortable. Kids ages 11/9/5 enjoyed the house. They loved the little loft area in the bedroom for some quiet time and a little secret hideout. Kitchen was great for cooking our lobster and seafood dinners. We love to cook and the kitchen was well equipped. Outdoor space was relaxing and it’s own little retreat. We enjoyed the fresh blueberries on the property. Location was perfect for easy access to Acadia, Bar Harbor, and lake access for paddle boarding. One of our best vacations to Maine yet. Thank you for letting us stay at this beautiful home. ##### Jane M. Stayed 7 nights in Aug 2023 ### 6/10 Okay #### Charles D., Santa Cruz, CA Aug 21, 2018 #### Very nice house; Right next to a very busy street. Everything the other reviews say about this house are true: It is very well decorated, the furniture is all new, it is clean and the owner is delightful. However, the one thing not mentioned (and why I gave it a three star review) is that it is right next to a very busy street, and so you constantly hear traffic noise from a steady stream of fast-moving cars, which are all about 10 feet from the entryway to the house. This is less of a big deal at night than I worried it would be - the noise from the box fans (there is no AC) pretty much drowns out the traffic noise. But, it is definitely an issue, and it makes sitting outside (there is a lovely lawn) much less pleasant than it otherwise would be. I also was frustrated because I was not warned of this. There is nothing in the description warning about traffic noise, and when I spoke to the owner on the phone before renting, and specifically asked if there was anything I should know about the house, she never mentioned the constant noise from the traffic. So, it is a nice house. But if you are looking for a quiet vacation (which, given that this is on the 'quiet side' of MDI, might be a goal), this might not be the house for you. ##### Charles D.

Stayed 6 nights in Sep 2023 ### 8/10 Good #### Richard S., Chesterfield County, VA Aug 8, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Convenient to all things MDI and Acadia NP This older ‘farmhouse’ is well maintained, well appointed and very comfortable. Everything about the property is charming. The owners live in the attached “carriage house” and are absolutely respectful of guests’ privacy. You have full access to the beautifully landscaped yard with solo stove for evening fires, comfortable chairs and picnic table for alfresco dining or relaxing. I would give this property 5+ stars except for one problem issue. The property is located on the main road to Southwest Harbor and traffic whizzes by at 50+ mph resulting in considerable traffic noise. During the warm summer nights when you need to leave windows open, we found the level of traffic noise to be disturbing until midnight and again starting up early morning (5 am). On cooler nights, when you can leave the windows closed, and using the “white noise” machines provided in each bedroom, the traffic noise would not be an issue. Other than this one concern this place is 5+ stars all around. ##### Richard S. Stayed 14 nights in Jul 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Kate H.

So easy to access Acadia. Cute farmhouse with beautiful yard. We loved the fire pit! Owners were great. Gave lots of good recommendations for hikes, restaurants, things to do, and secret spot for sunset. Perfect fit for our girl’s weekend. ##### Lettie P.

Desert Island We loved the location of this house, easy access to all activities on MDI. Comfortable, well equiped farmhouse with nice furniture. Didn't seem like a rental at all! Yard was huge, we enjoyed the grill, firpit, outdoor furniture and played games in the yard. Only negative was the road noise but everything else made up for it. Apparently this has been a busier summer than usual. Recommendations from the hosts were great. Elizabeth was helpful, answered questions and we enjoyed a visit with her the last night. ##### Meg R.

It's a lovely old farmhouse, well-equipped with what you need, and the owners are prompt and thoughtful in their communications. The house is close to a busy road, which can make it a bit noisy, but the backyard is a wonderful refuge. We would gladly stay at this home again. ##### Andrew C. Stayed 7 nights in Jul 2021 ### 8/10 Good #### Diana M. Sep 16, 2020 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication Disliked: Listing accuracy #### Retreat The property is charming. The backyard is gorgeous, and there are several outdoor seating options. There is a nice working grill and a fire pit also in the yard. The owner is delightful. Their house is attached to this property. My only problem is the listing for 7 adults. This property is great for 4 adults and a couple of kids. The kitchen is small, the downstairs bathroom is small. The third bedroom is very tight. The house looks larger in the photos than it really is. The other problem is that it is directly on route 102 which is a very busy road, and the road noise in the master bedroom will get you up early. ##### Diana M.

I was not bothered by traffic noise but others in my party were not used to it. ##### Susan M.
