It was very well stocked. Small living space but comfortable and the screen porch gave some extra lroom. We enjoyed ping pong and the fire pit right on the property. Plenty of good places to eat in a very short distance. There is some traffic noise as it is close to the main road but it was quite quiet at night. ##### Mike P.

The listing says location close to bar harbor and Acadia park but it took atleast 25 mins to get to both the places. The location is in Mt Desert island which is atleast a 10 mile drive from all the main locations. I hope they change it to reflect it accurately in the listing.
