Aug 24, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, location, listing accuracy Disliked: Communication #### Great Location Close To Everything This home is in a great location within short distance from the main Acadia entrance and close to Bar Harbor. The house was perfect for two families to share comfortably and was quiet and beautiful. I was not happy with the amount of constant texts and messages from the host however. When on vacation we like to take it easy and relax, not easy to do with three small children to wrangle. The host was texting me often about getting her maintenence person into the house (two days during our 1 week stay) and I felt pressured that we should leave and get out and about early and often, plus an early morning phone call and text about the garbage going out, which we had already done. Our trip would have been more enjoyable without this disruption, otherwise it was a great place to stay. ##### Kristin B. Stayed 7 nights in Aug 2023 ### 8/10 Good #### Cynthia I. Aug 12, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, location, listing accuracy #### Spacious park like setting great for families The main house layout and amenities were great for our family and we enjoyed the large kitchen, deck, living room, and yard. Extra towels, beach towels, umbrellas, jackets, and head lamp and so many extra touches made it feel like a home away from home. Two of the 4 beds in the main house were very soft and sagged in the middle and that made for less than ideal sleeping for some. The lower unit that another family member rented for part of the time was very musty and would have been hard to hang out in if we had needed it for that. Given the musty smell, it was a very high price to pay in my opinion. The trip left on a bad note as the host messaged me just after we left about 2 things that had just broken as we were leaving and I had not yet had a chance to tell her as the grand baby was crying in the car and it wasn’t yet check out time. The message implied I had hid the broken items from her. The cutlery drawer that collapsed as we were leaving was likely not the first time it broke as the pressboard was stripped and we couldn’t fix it. It was very obviously broken and no effort was made to hide it. A small plastic window tab also popped off when I went to close the window upon checking out as we left them open the entire time. I found the host’s tone upsetting as I always disclose if something breaks and take responsibility. I would not have minded if she had just asked about them rather than assuming they broke earlier in the week and we were trying to hide it. ##### Cynthia I.

Peaceful country setting but minimal drive to downtown Bar Harbor and Acadia Nat’l Park for everything you need to do and see. Home was clean, and extremely well stocked- kitchen, and linen supplies were endless, plus books and games galore! You won’t be sorry for renting this spacious home ! ##### Annette T.

Aug 11, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy Very nice well maintained house and close proximity to both the visitor center of Acadia Park and to Bar Harbor. Tree view from the deck was terrific. The addition I would recommend is to put TVs in each bedroom as only the one master bedroom had a tv. ##### Philip A.

It was the perfect setting and size for our reunion of two families and a great base as we explored Acadia NP and Bar Harbor. ##### Blaine O.

It was a great location to Bar Harbor and Acadia, with lots of food options and things to do nearby. Great outdoor space and nice interior. ##### Colleen G. Stayed 7 nights in Jul 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Donald M. Aug 3, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy We had a great stay at this spacious home near the mainland and a few miles to the Acadia Park entrance. The house was a wonderful hub to explore the park, the town of Bar Harbor and more distant lobster pounds. A big plus is that the house is on a large (dark at night) and quiet lot (about 13 acres). It is away from bar harbor noise and allows for bird watching and hearing nature. The house is modern, well lite, and extremely clean. The kitchen is large and well equipped allowing us to cook all breakfasts and a few evening meals... a real cost saver! The multiple ceiling fans kept the house cool. The deck is large and contains multiple comfortable chairs and an outdoor table, a gas grill, and a gas fire table. There is a washer and dryer... all allowing for a comfortable stay. A three-ring binder provides tips on the area and ads/ pamphlets. We had the pleasure of meeting the owner and enjoyed our conversation. We would staying again if coming back to the area! ##### Donald M. Stayed 7 nights in Jul 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### James P.

Great location to Acadia and Bar Harbor. The house and property are absolutely beautiful and peaceful; we even had the opportunity to see the biggest buck in the woods surrounding the house! We enjoyed the beautiful sunsets from the deck. Kellie thought of everything a family would need while staying there; the amenities were perfect. Would love the opportunity the next time we visit Maine to be welcomed back to Kellie's peace of heaven! ##### James P. Stayed 3 nights in Jun 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Kelly L.

It is quiet and private and the views from the deck are so serene, we had plenty of deer grazing and the birds chirping made us open a bird app to identify the sounds. The house is well equipped with all amentities, the kitchen is well stocked with all supplies. We traveled with our 2 sons and they were thrilled to be able to pick their own room and have their own space. Every nook of this property is comfortable! ##### Kelly L.

The house is located a convenient short drive from the national park. It is in a quiet neighborhood which makes for a good basecamp for both hiking and visiting Bar Harbor. The house has plenty of sleeping space. The master suite has a large jacuzzi tub to relax after hiking. It rained during our stay but the deck seemed like a perfect spot to unwind after a busy day hiking. ##### Jonathan N. Stayed 5 nights in Sep 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Catherine A.

It was close to all the Acadia National Park destinations we had planned. A favorite spot in the house was the deck. We ate our suppers together outside. It was beautiful. ##### Catherine A.
