"My husband and I spent a few nights at this tiny home in Acadia as part of our two week Maine vacation. I found the accommodations to be just as advertised. Everything was quite clean and the host was quick to respond to my text inquiries. The location is great, near several good restaurants, and easy access to the all the sights on the island.

Precipice Tiny House at Acadia Yurts

"We had everything we needed for a base camp as we visited a friend and of course spent most of our time exploring Acadia. This was the most economical place we could find and it was a score for sure. Hosts were on site most days and very helpful. Utilized the laundry facility where board games and extra kitchen items were supplied. Thanks for a great stay, we’ll be sure to come back! Cheers."

Charming cottage with grill, private deck, and stunning ocean views

8.6 out of 10, Excellent, (26)
"This property was conveniently close to Acadia National Park, Bar Harbor, and other area attractions. It was perfect for the six of us with three bedrooms, six beds, two full bathrooms, and a nice kitchen and living area. There was also a deck with a grill. Really, the only downside was a lack of air conditioning, which we could have used during our August visit."

"We were not aware of the drive into the property at night. That was a little. Concerning, But by morning, we were much more comfortable about where we were. When we drove into the driveway the first evening, there was a very large deer sitting in the yard and that’s what we drove into. Funny but also scary. It is a beautiful home and decorated very nicely and the rooms worked out great for my friend and I. Very well stocked with all you need for your stay."

"We are NOT camping people. This property was so wonderful that we got the full benefits of camping, while still retaining all the comforts of home. We actually used the word “home” a lot told refer to our yurt. The other thing we kept noting throughout our stay was how “thoughtful” every detail was. This place is high quality and truly awesome."
