During its first 15 years, Fern Way welcomed hundreds of guests and now you can experience it for yourself! Fern Way is our own family's personal home during the winter so it's full of warmth, love and amenities to make you feel right at home. We manage multiple homes within a few miles of Fern Way, including the Club House right next door. The Fern Way home offers a unique combination of modern amenities and rustic charm. Nestled in the woods on Mount Desert Island, this home is designed to blend seamlessly with the surrounding natural beauty. With a spacious open floor plan, post and beam details, and a large kitchen perfect for cooking family meals, Fern Way is the ideal retreat for a large group or family gathering. A gently curving driveway through the woods leads to the quiet 10 acres that surrounds Fern Way. The attractive exterior is Adirondack style live edge siding, complemented by cedar posts supporting an entry porch overlooking the large lawn. Entering the house, two French doors lead you into a large open floor plan allowing for ease and comfort of a large group or family gathering. The large kitchen is ideal for preparing family meals with ample counter space, appliances and gadgets, a stunning custom banister in maple and a soaring two story stonewall that defines the sunny living area and the screened porch with dining table and futon couch is the perfect spot to start your day with coffee and end it with sunsets through the trees. The large master bedroom with a king bed is located upstairs as well as a bedroom with a queen bed, a bedroom with two twin beds that can be converted to a king if desired, and a full bathroom complete with a jetted tub to help ease tired muscles after a fun-filled day exploring Acadia. Downstairs is a bedroom with a queen bed, a bathroom with shower, and the screened porch with a new futon, which can be used as an extra bedroom or by those wishing to sleep in the fresh air of the Maine woods. You get the whole house, 10 acres of woods, and all the fresh air you can breathe. Located in the heart of Mount Desert Island, Fern Way is no more than 10 min from all the attractions Acadia National Park has to offer and just a short walk to Long Pond, one of the best swimming and boating lakes on Mount Desert Island, as well as the secluded hidden treasures on the “quiet side” of Acadia National Park. From Bar Harbor and the breathtaking Park Loop Rd to Bass Harbor and its famous lighthouse, you’ll spend more time exploring the wonders of this lovely island and less time getting there. Within just two miles of the house are three wonderful swimming and boating lakes, several spectacular hiking trails, beautiful Somes Harbor, and just up the road, Beech Hill Farm, the only organic farm stand on the island. The Island Explorer is a free propane fueled island wide bus service. The nearest bus stop to Fern Way is in the village of Somesville, 3 miles away. Adam and Jen have a deep love and understanding of the natural beauty surrounding the Acadia/Mount Desert Island area and are dedicated to the vitality of the people of Mount Desert Island. We live here year round and are raising our kids here. Thus, each year we donate a portion of our proceeds to local organizations devoted to sustaining the beauty and well-being of the Mount Desert Island area and people living here. First and foremost we are dedicated to helping families and friends spend quality time with each other and want your vacation to be memorable.

One bedroom and bath on the first floor, and three more on the upper floor, including one with two twin beds, so can easily accommodate 3 couples and two kids. It is also just a quick drive to Acadia National Park and Bar Harbor, so perfect in that regard as well. To top it all off, Jen (owner) and Kristen (manager) are attentive hosts and extremely accommodating.

The area was quiet and conveniently located (a short drive to the park and Bar Harbor). The house itself is clean, spacious, organized, serene (nature themes of wood, stone, plants), and had all the kitchen supplies we needed for light cooking.

Sep 29, 2014 #### GREAT VACATION SPOT If you're having trouble deciding where to stay on Mount Desert Island, Fern Way is the perfect choice. You can walk to the swimming beach and boat rentals on Long Pond, and are really at the crossroads of the island -- you can easily reach Bar Harbor, the Park Loop Road, and the "quiet side" attractions. The house is very comfortable and well-equipped, and our family of six had plenty of room to spread out. It's even prettier than in the pictures, and we enjoyed eating in as much as eating out. Jen and Adam are excellent hosts and will answer all your questions. ##### Brenda H. This review comes from a trusted partner site and has not been verified. ### 10/10 Excellent #### jordan p. Aug 8, 2018 #### Wonderful spot in the Quiet Side My family of four loved our stay at Fernway. Jen, our host, was so kind to be sure we knew everything we needed to know for our extended visit on MDI. The kitchen was very well stocked and even had bonuses like travel coffee mugs and kids’ plasticware. Our young children loved playing in the yard for countless hours and we all enjoyed the screened porch immensely. The futon on the porch was a dreamy spot for reading and naps! We loved the location - away from the chaos of Bar Harbor but close to Acadia and close enough to make a trip into Bar Harbor when we wanted. The memories we made at this house will be cherished for years to come! ##### jordan p. Stayed 14 nights in Jul 2018 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Roger C., Annapolis, MD Aug 1, 2018 #### Wonderfully maintained, best stocked kitchen and facilities of any rental we have ever done Fern Way is a great place to stay, peaceful, and quiet. You are surrounded by woods and nature. The kitchen has lots of dishes, great appliances, and plenty of spices for cooking. They have lots of anything one would need, towels soap, shampoo, toilet paper, paper towels, etc etc etc. You can sit on the screened deck and hear the loons at night. Wonderful. Jen is great too. She came by to welcome us and always answered promptly to questions. I can't say enough about the place. This is the second time we have stayed there, and we will certainly stay there again the next time that go to MDI!! ##### Roger C.

The house was everything we expected and then some. We had eight adults that were very comfortably housed and the living area was wonderful for family enjoyment. The house was spotless upon arrival and everything works! We found that the setting was excellent even for small children. It is convenient to all parts of the island. There was plenty of parking. Our host was readily available. We didn’t actually need them for anything because they were so well prepared. If you need a location that can house eight adults on Mount Desert Island you couldn’t find a nicer home. ##### Kevin B.

Great location with beautiful front porch sitting area and netted outdoor patio. The owner, Jen, is very friendly, easy to reach and responsive. Enjoyed our vacation and we all had a great time at this "home". ##### Jaydeep P. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Scott Dyer O. Feb 27, 2019 #### Perfect :) We loved Fern Way as our base to explore MDI. We've rented many homes in many places and this one was stuffed with every imaginable household item you might ever need. We didn't bake any bread in the bread machine but we also didn't want for a good pot or pan or quality knife, that's for sure! One of the drawbacks of some rentals is the lack of 'stuff' that you really need from day-to-day. Not Fern Way! The home was spotless and we got off to a perfect start w the hand-written note from the Owner and a jar of blueberry jam awaiting our arrival. The location was great - just 15 minutes or so to Bar Harbor and similar to Southwest Harbor and also the primary access to the park loop. The house was very private, which allowed us to just do us and get away from the busier areas of the island. Though we didn't see any moose in Maine we enjoyed the porcupine we nicknamed "Spike" as he/she enjoyed nibbling something tasty for hours in the front yard. Would definitely stay here again. ##### Scott Dyer O. Stayed 3 nights in Oct 2018 ### 8/10 Good #### Elizabeth L. Sep 23, 2018 #### Perfect place for a weekend getaway! The Fern Way house is a beautiful home! My family and I had a wonderful stay while exploring Maine. I was a little disappointed the house isn't right on the lake! The pictures were a little deceiving, but the drive is only 10 minutes away. Jen was a great hostess. She was very accommodating and responsive to any questions. ##### Elizabeth L.

This beautiful house was quiet and had all the amenities you’d need. The hosts’ attention to detail is impeccable - we used their bug spray to rid ourselves off of bugs for hikes. If you’re looking for a family home with great access to Acadia this is your house! Thank you Jen and Adam for a wonderful weekend! ##### SHEKHAR S.

There are big rooms, nice kitchen with everything in it, beautiful dining room and living room for everybody to sit together. There is a great porch and garden outside surrounding by the woods.

Oct 29, 2017 #### Home Away From Home Fern Way was a perfect home for our family of 8\. The property is surrounded by lush, green forest; quite a change from the Arizona desert! The kitchen is fully-equipped for meal prep. The screened porch area and large dining room table provided opportunities for great family meals and conversation. The bedrooms are spacious and the beds are very comfortable. I especially appreciated the use of the washer and dryer, saving us $400 in checked bags fees! The front patio provided the perfect setting to enjoy our early morning coffee. The space around the home is peaceful and quiet. Jen provides a box with pamphlets and maps of the highlights in the area so you don't miss anything! Acadia National Park is close by and a must-see. Thank you, Jen and Adam, for a most accommodating home away from home. ##### Sandra R.

Jennifer answered all our questions, providing useful suggestions and making planning our 3-generation family trip a breeze! Excellent value and wonderful memories! ##### Nicole H.

Oct 20, 2017 #### Family reunion We stayed at this wonderful home for a family get together in August. It was perfect for our group. The house has a great common area and large table for family dinners. We used the gas grill several times. The house is in quiet, park-like setting, yet only a short drive to many activities. The owner was very responsive and made us feel welcome. We would definitely consider renting this home again. ##### maria s.

We stayed here recently with another couple from Western Mass and this place is absolutely fantastic! We love the outside and inside charm of this beautiful home that feels “country” but also modern and unique. I wish we could transport this house back home with us. The peace and quiet in the evening and night is incredible. In addition, if you ever need local advice from Jen, she has all the best answers! Need a small hike, not overly populated; she knows a few places to send you. Need a restaurant that suits your palate, she has great suggestions. Jen knows the island like the back of her hand. Jen and Adam have thought of all your needs. Everything in the home is perfectly addressed. If not, she is only a phone call away. We are repeat customers and will be back again soon. Thank you again Jen for another wonderful experience! ##### Jim J.
