First time in Bar Harbor
This was our first visit to Bar harbor and Acadia National Park. The house was perfect for our family. It was so convenient and we could walk everywhere. It was so clean and very well stocked. We had everything we needed and then some. The host was so accommodating because we had to come a day late due to a hurricane in Florida. We will definitely be back.

Location! Location! Location!
This was the perfect place to stay for our week in Bar Harbor and Acadia. There is a grocery store right across the street. The Sand Bar/Bar Island is just 2 blocks away and is a must see for tide pooling and hiking. There is a great restaurant literally less than 5 steps away for breakfast, lunch or dinner.It was really good! Kim was very helpful throughout the stay. The house is stocked with everything you need. We have stayed in rentals when this hasn’t always been the case.You are sure to enjoy your trip when staying here!

Bar Harbor and Acadia adventure
Great property for a visit to Acadia NP and Bar Harbor. There were 6 adults and we all loved the location of this house. You can’t get a better location. A grocery store that you can walk to…a restaurant across the street. Shopping and many restaurants just a short walk away. The house is super comfortable and is stocked so well with everything you need. We all agreed that we would go back. Communication with the owner was great.

Nice Little Cottage
Den in back of the house was very nice - bright with skylights and quiet. We spent most of our indoor time there. Location is great, in that it’s just off Cottage and 1/2 block from grocery store. However, new construction on the street feels overwhelming, which is too bad for all the properties on this short street. The rest of the house is pretty small. King and queens barely fit in the bedrooms. Further, wood stairs are a bit steep and are very squeaky and loud. The baths and kitchen were fine, but really need an update…look like they haven’t been touched since 1970s. Communications with owner were pretty good, but written info in house was often contradictory.

This home was everything that we wanted for our Maine visit. The house was clean, comfortable and had all the amenities needed. It was perfectly located to walk to local sites, restaurants and shopping. Easy access to Acadia National Park as well. Kim was great to work with and we highly recommended their home for your Bar Harbor visit. We will be back!

Family Vacation success!
Aysgarth Cottage was perfect for our family vacation to Acadia. The house is super close to the park and walking distance to the grocery store for hiking snacks and restaurants for breakfast/dinner. The house was very clean and comfortable for our family of 6 adults. Kim was very responsive and left clear instructions. Our only complaint is washing/drying the linens before the 10am check out time is very tight. Even making sure towels were done the night before, waking up, packing, broom cleaning, and taking out the trash, left us down to the wire trying to switch the second load of sheets to the dryer to get out in time. Considering the cleaning fee, it'd be easier to get out at 10am just stripping the sheets. Overall happy with the stay!

Great location and home
This property was everything we expected it to be. Everything was within walking distance and had something for everyone to do. The house was clean and well kept. The host checked in on us just to make sure we had everything we needed, and let us know about all the information that is at the house to help us plan our days. This was our first time visiting BarHarbor and we all had an amazing time. Can’t wait to come back and stay here again! This house is in the perfect location if you want to just park your car and walk, which we did a lot of! Thank you for opening your home to us!

Great property-heart of bar harbor!
Outstanding well equipped home walking distance to everything in bar harbor, but just far enough away! Property is settled into a quiet street minutes away from shopping, shore path, and bar island sand bridge. Awesome roof deck, sleeping areas and tons of space in the living areas. Quick drive to ANP loop road and everything the park has to offer. Property manager was excited to let us know about many of the great hikes and activities in the park and bar harbor, including awesome restaurant 15 feet away from the front door….the black friar. Best meal we had all week! Vrbo only has a five star rating, but we give this location and th open communication with property owner 12 stars. Thanks for an awesome visit!

Lovely cottage at normally quiet end of bar harbor
Roomy and comfortable this 3 bed/2 bath home was very comfortable for our week in Bar Harbor. East walking distance from everything we wanted to do in town, very close to grocery and many good close by restaurants. Great beds and terrific water pressure in showers. Location ideal for spending time in Acadia NP. Our only complaint which the owners of course can’t control was the noise from the massive construction project directly across the street. It started every morning during the week at 7am. Guessing it will be completed later this year and then it won’t be an issue.

Pros & Cons
The location was great, walkable and close to everything. The owner was very easy to work with, responsive, friendly and accommodating. However, the house is in need of a deep clean. The carpet is stained, and furnishings are very tired and worn. If these things don't bother you, then I would recommend the house just for the location. We made do, but it certainly wasn't what I was expecting based on prior reviews.

Great location. Easy walk to downtown and nice grocery store. Smallish bedrooms as it is an older house, with comfy beds. Outdoor area is a picnic table on driveway. Appreciated that Host called to see how things were going. Requiring us to wash and dry the towels before we left was a little unusual. Overall we enjoyed our stay.
