Great Access to the Island

We really enjoyed our stay. The location made it easy to access all parts of the island for hikes and sight seeing with a comfortable place to return to.

Central

The house was perfect for our family. It was clean, very comfortably furnished and provided all the amenities you could wish for. It was centrally located and easy to access the park as well as all the towns. We were able to bring our dogs which was a huge plus

Awesome!!!

Great location on MDI for all the things we love to do. The market store in town Hill was a great asset with super friendly people there. The home was comfortable and the kitchen setup was absolutely amazing if you love to cook. Highly recommended!

Great location!

We loved that the location was close enough to Bar Harbor to run into town for food, a few drinks, etc but far enough away to be a quiet retreat. It was a great spot for hiking wherever we were headed on the island. The house was totally equipped and a great spot to relax for our pup too. The master bed was super comfortable, which is so important after a long day of hiking.

Great house

The house was bigger than it appears in the pictures. Our family of five had plenty of space and the location was excellent as every trail and the downtown area had multiple ways to go get there.

Great place for our Acadia/Bar Harbor stay

Jim and Annette's place was clean and the space was as pictured. The kitchen was well stocked, possibly the best VRBO of any I have stayed in. We loved being able to bring our dog who also enjoyed the yard. The location in regards to BH/Acadia is great. Beds are soft, and it is close to major road causing more traffice noise than anticipated from the photos. Overall I would recommend.

Family vacation in Maine

Came with our adult children to celebrate our 40th wedding anniversary. We ebiked in Acadia National Park, enjoyed downtown Bar Harbor and ate all things seafood. It was a wonderful time. The home was a wonderful place for us to relax and enjoy each other’s company.

Nice Quiet Home Close to it All

Wonderful home for a family vacation! We loved how quiet this house was but that it was close to Acadia and Bar Harbor without having to deal with the traffic. The house itself had everything we needed and more. We thought it was larger that the pictures showed. We always enjoyed ending our busy days eating dinner on the deck then playing games around the fire. We hope to rent this home again next time we are in town.

Family Getaway

Lovely house on quiet street off very busy road. Twenty minutes to Bar Harbor, but great takeout nearby. House is big, clean with very soft beds. Nice outdoor deck and porch, big well-stocked kitchen. Communication with owners was minimal.

Very good location close to the park and harbor

The house itself was very neat and provided many of the necessary provisions for a comfortable stay. Would stay again in future trips to Mt Desert island.

Cozy, comfortable home away from it all, but close enough to everything you could want in Bar Harbor and Acadia. Jim is a master lobsterman and delivered our holiday dinner.

2nd Visit

Had such a great experience last year, came back again. Very clean home, has everything you'd need in a rental. Hosts are kind and responsive to inquiries. Close to enjoy all Acadia has to offer but without the craziness of Bar Harbor. Quiet street, great pizza place within walking distance and other great restaurants close-by without that intense-touristy feel.

Lovely Home

Probably our favorite house we have stayed at on the island. The house itself is gorgeous with a lovely huge porch complete with a super cool fire pit! The house was stocked with everthing you would need and was very clean. The hosts were very responsive and extremely helpful. The location of the house is perfect. It's private but all necessities and of course Acadia are only a short drive away. Plus, our dogs were allowed to stay with us which was amazing. Could not have asked for a better home base for our trip!
