This is the gateway to Acadia National Park (Bar Harbor is about 30 miles) and 14 miles in the opposite direction is the Schoodic Peninsula entry to Acadia. This is known as the quiet side of Acadia, which offers breathtaking views as well as a ferry to Bar Harbor, to avoid traffic.

At night, you have unobstructed views to watch for shooting stars. THE LOCATION The Historic village of Sorrento was developed as a summer community for the wealthy in the mid 1880s. It is now a true hidden gem in Down East Maine. A very desirable, secluded community offering spectacular views of Bar Harbor and the mountains of Mount Desert Island. Sorrento’s 9 -hole public golf course is a rare jewel on the rugged Maine coast, echoing the more storied layouts of St. Andrews and Royal Troon, Scotland. The open, links-style course offers exquisitely manicured bent grass greens and stunning views of Flanders Bay. Bring your kayak (or rent one) and explore the densely forested Preble Island -- located directly across the harbor -- known for its cobble beaches and roosting eagles. Or discover the many nearby islands. Other local activities include biking, boating, fishing, and bird watching. Coastal Maine Vacations requires a rental contract to be signed at the time of booking.

Jul 2, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Very peaceful This property worked very well for our family of 5 as a quiet alternative to staying in Bar Harbor for our exploration of Acadia. It’s very convenient to the Schoodic Penninsula portion of the park, and we really liked that less visited part of the park. The town of Sorrento is very peaceful, and it was nice wandering down the waterfront in the evening. The deck view from the house is lovely, and I spent a wonderful afternoon out there reading and enjoying the wearher. Our only complaint about the property is that the mattress in the second bedroom really needs an upgrade. The master, daybed in the master, and the futon in the basement were all very comfy. ##### Jennifer M. Stayed 4 nights in Jun 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### David G. Aug 29, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### A Great Getaway The house was very nice overall. It was a very good location to be able to access Acadia/Bar Harbor (about an easy 50 minute drive around the Mt Desert Narrows, Frenchman's Bay and their numerous tributaries and coves) while at the same time enjoying the nestled seclusion of Sorrento. There is a little market nearby that we did not notice until near the end of the trip (Dunbars) that is stocked with most of what you need for a good week's worth of meals to include adult beverages. The town's streets and roads provide ample ways to exercise safely. Very friendly and quiet location! One caution I would provide is that the shower off of the main living room is fairly small and very, very slippery. Be very careful when using it. That bathroom is also tight in space overall so it can only have one person using it at a time. Otherwise a great location especially if you want to be a bit further from the hustle of Bar Harbor but able to easily take a day trip there or to the National or local State Parks. ##### David G.

Oct 26, 2024 Liked: Check-in, communication #### Pleasant but needed some TLC We were excited to be in Maine, for our first time in Acadia National Park. The house was charming but needed some TLC, the front was full of leaves and everything was overgrown, quite hard to use the yard. The BBQ was quite dirty and no brushes to use to clean it. The kitchen was well appointed, except the portable dishwasher did not have any instructions, so we did not feel comfortable using it. The kitchen, living area and bedrooms were comfortable and pleasant. We did not use the lower level sleeping area. The view every morning was fantastic! The outdoor seating area over the garage was very nice, it could use a power wash. Overall, we enjoyed our stay and with a bit of TLC this place could be fantastic. ##### Elizabeth Mochen P.
