Rating
This home was the perfect location for getting around the island being centrally located to everywhere we wanted to go.
We loved the home a little wood stove, and the firepit by the water was absolutely wonderful. Also the home is located in a very good place close to Acadia. There is a station close that would have pizza sandwiches etc made it very nice if we were out late in the park. The game room was wonderful. We had a great experience here!
Great spot for a group trip! The house had plenty of space, the deck and firepit were perfect for hanging out, and we had a blast playing Ping-Pong upstairs. The location was super convenient for Acadia and Bar Harbor, and the waterfront views were beautiful. Kayaking and spotting seals in the bay was amazing. Only small downside was that the kitchen didn’t have many spices, but honestly, that didn’t bother us. We’d definitely stay here again.
Pretty much everything
This house was so spacious, and worked great for a family or group! Back deck, waterside fire pit and seating we're wonderful!
Nice accommodations in a great location!
