Great house right outside Acadia Natl Park
We loved staying at this well appointed darling home with ideal location for exploring Acadia (3 min drive to the entrance) and a quick drive or half hour walk to charming downtown. Really appreciated the comfy beds, fresh new linens/blankets, and new appliances. Minor concern that there was no deadbolt on the front door or door to the basement that could be accessed by caretaker or owners, but neighborhood felt safe overall. Would definitely stay here again!

Fall Trip to Acadia
The house was very clean and well stocked. Jane was very accommodating and gave us access to the garage so we could store our bikes. Communication with Jane was excellent! The neighborhood is quiet even though the houses are spaced closely together. The house was located minutes from the park entrance and downtown Bar Harbor. We were even able to ride our bikes into the park in less than 10 minutes.

Family oriented vacation house
We just spent 5 days at this property with adults and 2 children, ages 1 and 3. Aside from the bedrooms being upstairs, everything was really great! Clean, well equipped, lots of room, easy to accommodate the age ranges and interests. Including a great washer and dryer in the downstairs and a piano in the "office" which is a second family room.

Last minute end of summer vacation trip
We had a great stay but too short of a trip. But overall, had a great stay. Lots of room for my wife and 3 kids. We could walk in to town and get food, ice cream, etc. Communication was easy with fast responses from the host.

Family vacation 2024
Great place. Very clean and convenient to park and town. The only problem for our group was having just one girl grandchild who was 18. She needed her own space and w 3 16-20 yr boy cousins it was difficult w sleeping arrangement for her. It meant buying a blow up mattress and finding a special space all her own. But we worked it out to her satisfaction.

Perfect location
Our family of eight visited Bar Harbor for a long memorial day celebration. The home is well appointed with all of the amenities needed for a great vacation. Plenty of room to spread out and kitchen was well stocked. The location couldn’t be any better whether it be getting to town, Acadia, or all other points of interest. Neighborhood was very quiet plenty of parking in the front of the home for four cars. Host was very responsive to all questions and any issues that we had with the home. Would definitely stay at this home again, if in the area.

Acadia Hiking Vacation
There were 6 of us staying and it was a very clean and comfortable vacation home! We drove to Acadia everyday for hikes. It is conveniently located and close to the park and restaurants in Bar Harbor. It was a 20-30 min walk to downtown, so we drove some and walked some. We had fun at the Reels pizza place where you could watch a movie while eating pizza. It was a great vacation and the house had plenty of comfy beds, showers and space.

Nice stay
The property looks like it’s been recently updated. It’s also clean and has all the amenities. Check-in was easy. The location was great. We appreciated the umbrellas, washer/dryer, and extra blankets! (JFYI the bathtub was out of order). The only con is that there were A LOT of check out instructions and pre-cleaning to do (10 bullet points worth).

Location, location, location! Perfect spot for Acadia, Bar Harbor, and surrounding location(s).
Wonderful property and perfect location. Chih-Hao, owner, was a delight to interact with! The location is very walkable to Bar Harbor, less then a kilometer from downtown. It’s close to the grocery store for supplies too. Acadia Nat’l Park is a 15 min drive away and we strongly suggest you watch a sun rise there. The property is exceptional and clean. Make sure to bring you slippers. It quiet too, we all slept like babies! The treats and water were a wonderful surprise, thank you Chih-Hao! The Martland’s had a great time!,!
