The view of the lake is great with really nice sunrises. 2\. 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 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### Kim H. Jul 14, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Great launch pad for MDI! We had a great stay at Spruce Chalet! The view of the ocean from the deck is just gorgeous, any time of day, any weather. There are steps right out the door down to the beach, and the kids had fun looking for sea glass and shells. The chalet itself was the perfect size for our family of four and dog. It had a nice selection of books, an open floor plan and a small but mighty kitchen with everything you need to make a good meal. It has a sweet, cozy feel, and is also large enough so it felt like we could have some quiet space too. Sweet Pea’s, just down the street, is a great restaurant (with adjacent winery and coffee shop), and an outdoor covered deck overlooking the farm. It’s dog friendly, too! The chalet is about 9 minutes to Bar Harbor, and about 5 to the Hulls Cove entrance for Acadia. We often drove into town, parked in one of the lots, and took the free Island Explorer bus into Acadia. There is also a route that stops close to the chalet (Hadley point campground). We were able to pack a lot in—Cadillac, Gorham, Thunder Hole, Sand Beach, Jordan Pond House, and Eagle Lake. We took a day trip to the Cranberry Islands too, went on Lulu’s Lobster boat, and caught a movie at Reel Pizza. It was nice to have a place to relax at the end of the day that was just far enough to feel remote, but close enough to be convenient. Peter was very responsive when we had any questions, and is knowledgeable about the area. We’d definitely stay here again! ##### Kim H.

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. Thanks to Peter for his exceptional communication. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 5 nights in May 2023 ### Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > - [Sea Cliff House Motel](https://www.expedia.ca/Portland-Hotels-Sea-Cliff-House-Motel.h1367216.Hotel-Information) > - [Spillover Motel and Inn](https://www.expedia.ca/Kingfield-Hotels-Spillover-Motel-And-Inn.h10340894.Hotel-Information) > - [The Colony Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Portland-Hotels-The-Colony-Hotel.h26416.Hotel-Information) > - [Homewood Suites by Hilton Portland](https://www.expedia.ca/Portland-Hotels-Homewood-Suites-By-Hilton-Portland.h1973046.Hotel-Information) > - [Portland Sheraton at Sable Oaks](https://www.expedia.ca/Portland-Hotels-Portland-Sheraton-At-Sable-Oaks.h11961.Hotel-Information) > - [Friendship Oceanfront Suites](https://www.expedia.ca/Portland-Hotels-Friendship-Oceanfront-Suites.h12486242.Hotel-Information) > - [Black Point Inn](https://www.expedia.ca/Portland-Hotels-Black-Point-Inn.h921432.Hotel-Information) > - [Inn By The Sea](https://www.expedia.ca/Portland-Hotels-Inn-By-The-Sea.h1542725.Hotel-Information) > - [Anchorage Inn and Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/York-Hotels-Anchorage-Inn-And-Resort.h9317652.Hotel-Information) > - [White Barn Inn & Spa, Auberge Collection](https://www.expedia.ca/Portland-Hotels-White-Barn-Inn-Spa.h528547.Hotel-Information) > - [Island View Inn](https://www.expedia.ca/Camden-Hotels-Island-View-Inn.h2211937.Hotel-Information) > - [Best Western Merry Manor Inn](https://www.expedia.ca/Portland-Hotels-Best-Western-Merry-Manor-Inn.h15845.Hotel-Information) > - [Vacationland Inn & Suites](https://www.expedia.ca/Bangor-Hotels-Maine-Coast-Inn-At-Vacationland-Inns.h27000971.Hotel-Information) > - [DoubleTree by Hilton Hotel Portland](https://www.expedia.ca/Portland-Hotels-DoubleTree-By-Hilton-Hotel-Portland.h8166.Hotel-Information) > - [Waves Oceanfront Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Portland-Hotels-Waves-Oceanfront-Resort.h15041235.Hotel-Information) > - [Comfort Inn & Suites Scarborough - Portland](https://www.expedia.ca/Portland-Hotels-Comfort-Inn-Suites-Scarborough-Portland.h2213298.Hotel-Information) > - [Dunes on the Waterfront](https://www.expedia.ca/Ogunquit-Hotels-Dunes-On-The-Waterfront.h920934.Hotel-Information) > - [Tru by Hilton Portland Airport Area](https://www.expedia.ca/Portland-Hotels-Tru-By-Hilton-Portland-Airport-Area.h18952854.Hotel-Information) > - [Comfort Inn South Portland Airport](https://www.expedia.ca/Portland-Hotels-Comfort-Inn-Airport.h27041.Hotel-Information) > - [Black Bear Inn, an Ascend Collection Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Bangor-Hotels-Black-Bear-Inn-And-Conference-Center.h15765.Hotel-Information) > - [York Harbor Inn](https://www.expedia.ca/York-Hotels-York-Harbor-Inn.h1635507.Hotel-Information) > - [Grand Beach Inn](https://www.expedia.ca/Portland-Hotels-Grand-Beach-Inn.h10615598.Hotel-Information) > - [Ogunquit - The Milestone](https://www.expedia.ca/Ogunquit-Hotels-The-Milestone.h1060087.Hotel-Information) > - [Alouette Beach Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Portland-Hotels-Alouette-Beach-Resort.h1973032.Hotel-Information) > - [The Edgewater](https://www.expedia.ca/Portland-Hotels-The-Edgewater.h2041428.Hotel-Information) > - [Ocean House Hotel & Motel](https://www.expedia.ca/Portland-Hotels-Ocean-House-Hotel-Motel.h59944363.Hotel-Information) > - [Fairfield by Marriott Inn & Suites Portland Maine Airport](https://www.expedia.ca/Portland-Hotels-Fairfield-Inn-By-Marriott-Portland-Maine-Mall.h701.Hotel-Information) > - [On the Beach Motel](https://www.expedia.ca/Portland-Hotels-Old-Colonial-Motel.h15408476.Hotel-Information) > - [The Beach House Inn](https://www.expedia.ca/Portland-Hotels-The-Beach-House-Inn.h1277367.Hotel-Information)
