And the owner, Ben, couldn’t have been more helpful! ##### Carl H. Séjour de 7 nuits en juin 2024 ### 10/10 – Excellent #### Ken B. 29 juin 2024 Points forts : Propreté #### Perfect The property was the perfect accommodation for our family reunion of 21 people, a mixture of adults and children. Our host, Ben Walter, put it over the top. The property is ideally located in the Schoodic Peninsula away from the hustle and bustle of MDI but close enough to be able to visit. But the beauty of the Captain's House is its proximity to so much more. Don't spend all your days in the National Park, explore the region and take full advantage of Ben's knowledge. The house is circa 1860s with interesting history, well appointed with everything you need. Our entire family enjoyed their stay. One final point, if you don't like being lulled to sleep by the sound of gentle waves hitting the beach and fresh ocean breezes then this place isn't for you! ##### Ken B. Séjour de 10 nuits en juin 2024 ### 10/10 – Excellent #### David F. 6 sept. 2023 Points forts : Propreté #### Great house, great area Enjoyed our stay very much. The house is definitely older but well kept and charming. The host was exceptional in his attentiveness to our needs and gave great advice on the area. The beach was actually the most interesting feature for the younger ones, which included wading and gathering of shells and small ocean wildlife. The trails around the property were not well defined and we did get lost a bit. The kitchen was really well appointed for cooking large meals. It seemed to have everything needed except fresh food, which is available at several markets in the area. The local people of the Prospect Harbor area were uniformly friendly with a definite country feel, which is quite a contrast to the nearby but unmistakably touristy Bar Harbor. We had 18 staying in the house and there was plenty of room. The access to the recital hall was also a huge plus as it is a gorgeous room for having live music. The Schoodic Peninsula was a great outing and allowed for a beautiful rocky walk along the ocean point. Would definitely consider revisiting again! ##### David F. Séjour de 7 nuits en août 2023 ### 10/10 – Excellent #### Steve M. 17 août 2023 Points forts : Propreté #### Truly special property Wonderful late 19th century home, very charming with essential amenities for a group as large as ours. We've traveled to many different destinations for family vacations throughout the eastern seaboard and lake front cottages over the past decade and can say this was a personal favorite. 200+ acres to explore with clearly marked trails on the property left us wondering why we'd even need to leave the schoodic peninsula for the larger park and tourist mess inside and outside or Bar Harbor. A variety of wildlife and flora greeted us on our hikes, and while we didn't catch a glimpse of any moose there was plenty to discover. Couple the woods with the beach directly across the street and the proximity of the fresh water pond for kayaking and you have a great location to appreciate the natural settings of eastern Maine. The children enjoyed perusing the library and vintage picture books--my daughter even dipped her toes in her first Shakespeare readings. The kids put on a brief theater performance at the conference/banquet hall and serenaded us with piano tunes. Some hangups we've experienced in the past while traveling with a large (18 person) group were alleviated by plenty of bathrooms/showers (each room has a private bath) and commercial range/oven, coffee maker etc. Plenty of utensils/dishware and a well stocked pantry of spice/storage made our meals much less stressful. The host, Ben, was a pleasure to work with and we thoroughly enjoyed the home baked pie on arrival! ##### Steve M. Séjour de 7 nuits en août 2023 ### 10/10 – Excellent #### Laura H. 23 juill. 2023 Points forts : Propreté #### Historic home This is a large historic house. It fit our large extended family nicely. We were so happy to be on the quieter Schoodic side of the National Park. Bar Harbor was great to visit but the Schoodic Peninsula was perfect, ##### Laura H. Séjour de 7 nuits en juillet 2023 ### 10/10 – Excellent #### Paula M. 20 juill. 2023 Points forts : Propreté #### A magical stay be the sea This old house by the sea was our delightful home for a week. There was plenty of room for all 24 of us and so much to do in the area. Ben greeted us our first night even though we got in rather late and gave us so many wonderful suggestions - we didn’t have time for them all but definitely plan to come back again and try some more. If you want a modern place with huge bathrooms and doors that don’t stick, this may not be the place for you. But if you want a great place with plenty of modern conveniences - good Wi-Fi, great water pressure with plenty of warm water for everyone and a well equipped kitchen - you will be in for a magical treat. Thanks Ben! We’d love to come back! ##### Paula M. Séjour de 7 nuits en juillet 2023 ### 8/10 – Bien #### Sharon J. 4 oct. 2022 #### Maine getaway This spacious New England home offers a great location on Schoodic peninsula. It is an hour drive to Bar Harbor or the other side of Acadia National Forest which is a bit of a trek. The house has an ample kitchen and a great space where everyone can eat together which was one of the best parts of the house. The beds were comfortable. Each bedroom had a bathroom attached, but some of the showers were small. The decor was in keeping with house, but the family room/living room had a lot of dust in it that anyone with allergies or asthma would we affected. The owner and property manager were easily accessible for problems or questions. This house met our needs so that 7 couples each had their own bedroom and bathroom. Thank you for a great Maine adventure! ##### Sharon J. Séjour de 7 nuits en septembre 2022 ### 8/10 – Bien #### David T. 12 sept. 2022 Points forts : Propreté #### Nice trip to Maine Property is nice but needs some updating such as bathroom in bedroom next to kitchen needs better light and larger mirror. Also doors are old but some need to be sanded for better closure. ##### David T. Séjour de 7 nuits en août 2022 ### 8/10 – Bien #### Sudhakar R. 6 sept. 2022 Points forts : Propreté #### Vacation in coastal Maine Beautiful location of an old historic house. Wonderful views from the bedrooms which were adequately furnished. The showers were disappointing however . Showers were small and some were not very clean. It’s a old house and the associated issues were not surprising. The house was more than adequate for our family of 11\. Mr. Walter was very helpful and prompt in addressing a water leak during our stay. We enjoyed our stay in that part of Maine. ##### Sudhakar R. Séjour de 7 nuits en août 2022 ### 10/10 – Excellent #### Patrick T., Medina, Ohio 14 août 2022 Points forts : Propreté #### Great place for a family get together We had a very nice stay. Ben and Shawn were very available when needed, very prompt to respond to requests and excellent to talk with. The beach is across the road as others mentioned, wasn’t a problem for us, however keep an eye on the little ones. The cars move fast. Ben had fantastic recommendations, we tried many of them because we wanted to avoid all the hustle and bustle, every last recommendation was spot on. The house was built over 200 years ago, so you need to keep that in mind. Rich in history I am sure. We talked many nights around the dining room table about what life would have been like on the property in the 1800’s. We really enjoyed ourselves! Thank you for the fantastic hospitality. ##### Patrick T. Séjour de 7 nuits en août 2022 ### 8/10 – Bien #### Ronald S. 9 août 2022 Points forts : Propreté #### A week of cool breezes The location of this property was perfect for us. We wanted easy access to a sandy beach and proximity to Acadia and natural areas. We loved having seafood on the wharf in the nearby village without crowds. Our grandchildren played in the water and on the rocks endlessly . The 9-bedroom house has a large, restaurant-style kitchen with 3 fridges, which accommodated us well. The house is old and thus can have problems old houses have, but the owner is responsive. We sometimes experienced interruptions with internet service, which could be due to the provider. We felt the location and surroundings made this a good choice for being outdoors in the best of coastal Maine. ##### Ronald S.

Séjour de 7 nuits en juillet 2022 ### 8/10 – Bien #### Kate S. 26 juill. 2022 Points forts : Propreté #### Big family get together We had a wonderful week at the sea captains house. The house itself is big and well appointed for a large group like ours. The restaurant style toaster and coffee maker were a big plus for breakfast! The bedrooms and bathrooms are a bit shabby and could do with an update but they suited our needs just fine. Ben was helpful with information about the area and left a lovely cobbler for us on the first night. He stopped by the house more often than most rental hosts I’ve had in the past. The nearby beach is stunning with lovely rocks to climb on and tide pools to explore in addition to swimming. I didn’t realize when we booked that it was across a road which made it a bit trickier to just let the kids roam. But the natural beauty of the place more than made up for it! As a heads up, one of our guests was in a wheelchair and while there is a ramp into the house, it was a pretty tight squeeze getting around inside the house and the porches were a step down which made them a hard to navigate. This was ok for us because we had a lot of people to help with lifting the chair in and out but it’s something to keep in mind if accessibility is an issue. Overall we had a nice week in a beautiful part of Maine. ##### Kate S.

Beautiful views, easy to get to hiking & biking. Loved that everyone had their own bathroom! ##### Maryann D. Séjour de 7 nuits en juillet 2022 ### 10/10 – Excellent #### Donna S. 13 juill. 2022 Points forts : Propreté #### Wonderful place for family reunion The location of this place was great for the activities we wanted to do nearby. It is a beautiful property with an old farm home feel. We loved all the bedrooms each with their own bathroom. The kitchen had an abundance of dishes, glass ware, and utensils, great for our large family of 14\. While some of the cupboard doors and kitchen drawers were hard to pull open because of age. This didn't pose a problem for us. The industrial gas stove was had multiple burners and huge oven, plus it had a grill we could use on top of it. There was a large dining room table. The living room had multi seating. The side porches had several chairs for enjoying the views. There was a separate building that was a wonderful library. Do note the bell windchime by the door entering the library. It is locally made at a shop about 10 minutes away. There is another smaller one located near of the entrances inside the house. There were plenty of parking places. The owner was very nice and responsive to all communications. He even came over and put up a croquet set for the kids to use. He also provided a list of activities we could do while in the area which was very helpful. Our whole family loved the beach! Both for swimming and exploring. We loved climbing the rocks on both sides of the cove and finding little creatures and rock treasures in some of the pools. The picture of the property was taken from the rocks to the side of the beach cove; thus, it doesn't show the road that needs to be crossed to get to the private beach. This road is paved and there isn't a lot of traffic on it. However we were surprised the private beach wasn't directly on the property per se. We actually drove by the property the first time driving to it because the picture didn't show a road between the house grounds and the road that we had to cross to get to the path to get down to the beach. I almost gave 4 stars to the accuracy of the online listing. But because the walk wasn't far, nor difficult, and the beach and rocks were truly wonderful for the whole family, I decided to give the five stars for accuracy of online listing. Our family loved being here! Thank you!! ##### Donna S.

The location was wonderful and the 14 days of ideas was super helpful. We all helped devour the delicious berry rhubarb pie. We left some food we didn't use hopefully you can give it to someone to use ##### Jane W. Séjour de 7 nuits en juillet 2021
