Wonderful home!
This spacious and well-kept home was comfortable and convenient for our family! Right in the heart of downtown southwest harbor, a few doors down from delicious breakfast and other shopping/food. We would definitely stay here again!

Great house!
The house was so cutely decorated and very comfortable for our party of 5 (one toddler, one couple, and grandparents; the rooms were separated with the primary with king and its bathroom w walk-in shower perfect for the grandparents, then the other king and the bunk room with the tub/shower bathroom on the other side of the house). Would definitely recommend! Southwest Harbor was a super cute little town. Several businesses weren’t open yet but the places we did pop into were all welcoming. We got sandwiches at Little Notch Bakery (highly recommend) and did a lobster tour with Sail Acadia (great for all ages in our party).

Comfortable getaway
Property was very much as advertised - very spacious and attractive. I visited with my three kids (7-14) and we had more space than we needed! Beds were comfortable, as was the furniture in the basement family room. Location was great - about 15-20 min (with no traffic) to downtown Bar Harbor, and close to lots of great hiking trails. We were there off season, so it was very quiet, and not too many local businesses were open yet, but there was great coffee and some amazing blueberry turnovers right up the street at the Silent City/St. Druex coffee shop and great breakfast and ice cream at the Quietside Cafe. Plenty of other places within walking distance that would be open in the summer season too. Property management was very responsive when we initially had trouble accessing the WiFi - got us sorted within minutes. Overall a great stay - would have loved to have been able to stay longer!

Family vacation
Overall it worked. The neighborhood had some seedy people walking around which we weren’t thrilled about. The house had a very eclectic decor. The basement had a weird odor to it. Kitchen could have been better equipt.

The place was great and location perfect. The lock is tricky and one must put numbers in very slowly and wait for light to flash with each number. Otherwise you must start over. It took three tries. Also internet s doesn’t work some of the time. We had to reset it about five times. And it is not easy to get in touch with Turn Key. I waited on hold for fifteen minutes. But overall it is a great place for a stay in Acadia. I would recommend it highly and stay there again myself. Just little issues to work through!
