The house is secluded but the steps lead right down to the bay. The house is a rustic cabin with 2 bedrooms. The bedding is very comfortable. The bathroom is small but the Rinnai placed right above the shower provides for plenty of hot water. The views of the bay from the deck are killer. We had the pleasure of meeting the owner and it was clear he cares about his guests and will address any issues should they arise. Great house! ##### Joydeep H.

The cabin was just as described, cozy, comfortable, and clean, the consummately perfect place to rusticate on Mount Desert Isle. Take a book, enjoy the views, and make the most of one of the best National Parks in the eastern United States.

We had a wonderful stay in his clean, rustic cabin. The seaviews were beautiful. It is located high above the beach, where you can explore interesting tidepools and collect the most delicious fresh mussels for dinner. The kitchen was well equipped for gourmet cooking. The beds very comfortable with skylights above, where you can see a million stars at night! It is six miles from downtown Bar Harbor and close to all parts of Acadia National Park. The cabin has a rustic charm. The bathroom is basic, but there is a good supply of hot water. There is a firepit in the woods right outside. We will definitely stay in this lovely cabin again! ##### Sylvia A. Stayed 5 nights in May 2023 ### 8/10 Good #### MICHAEL M.

The host is the next house over and responds very quickly to questions and requests. 3. The sky lights in the bedrooms are a nice touch. Improvements: 1. The bedding and sheets are stained and need to be replaced. 2. The couch needs to be replaced. It seems really old and is not comfortable. 3. The cabin is aged and could use a freshen up throughout on the inside and out. ##### MICHAEL M. Stayed 8 nights in Aug 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Christie m.

It was wonderful working with Peter, the owner. Great communication. Cozy rustic chalet with modern amenities. Very clean and comfortable. Location is great for easy access to Acadia National Park and Bar Harbor. Amazing views from deck for sunrise and sunset from the private shoreline . Private shoreline access via steps for exploring tidal pools during low tide and abundant quantities of mussels , fresh to pick and steam and enjoy on the deck. Watched lobster boats going our early am from deck. Saw eagle in trees right off deck and watched lobster boats in the bay. Relaxing on the deck and enjoying the views of the bay was definitely a highlight for us! We will be back! ##### Christie m. Stayed 5 nights in Jun 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Linda M. Jul 3, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Family summer vacation This was the first time we visited Maine, and Maine did not disappoint. Spruce met all our needs and Peter was the perfect host. He was quick to answer all my questions/ texts as well as fix the outside deck light. The house had everything we needed to make our own meals and hang out at night playing cards. Also having a house on the beach was a great way to spend time fishing or walking or just sitting Spruce is in the perfect location to Bar Harbor, Acadia, National Park, as well as the surrounding areas. We loved our dinners from Mainely barbecue, as well as Sweet Peas. C-Rays lobster was the best around. I highly recommend Spruce to anybody visiting the Bar Harbor area and wanting to wake up every morning to hear the ocean waves on the beach. I am sure we will return one day and hope to stay at Spruce again. Thanks Peter and team for ensuring a wonderful vacation. ##### Linda M. Stayed 7 nights in Jun 2023 ### 6/10 Okay #### Lisa K. Nov 3, 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Modest cabin with good location The spruce chalet is a modest, rustic cabin in a great location on the water, near Acadia. The doors to bedrooms and bathrooms do not provide full privacy, as they do not close well and have gaps. Mattresses in room with bunks were very uncomfortable. The cabin was dark and needed additional lighting-difficult to even play cards in the evening. No heat in bedrooms (chilly at night) and cabin seemed to lack insulation. Only had two rolls of toilet paper for a week stay. Location allows for convenient tide pooling opportunities. Overall, great location, but cabin was not as nice as expected. ##### Lisa K.
