Off the beaten path…
Overall enjoyed our stay here and the views are amazing. It is not at all near a “touristy” area so be prepared to drive for sites and Bar Harbor/Acadia access. The house is older and definitely in need of some maintenance and repair around doors and windows. We were disappointed there was no direct beach access too. Also there is no king bed as stated in the description, only three queens. The tap water and ice taste terrible so bring bottled water! This would be a perfect place for a quiet vacation and visit to Maine and we did find some good local restaurants that were cute with great food and service,

Stay at cracking cottage
Beautiful setting, house is roomy and clean, such fabulous views! I fell asleep and woke up to the sound of waves, my favorite! The property is a bit off the beaten path but everything is easy to get to as long as you don’t mind driving a bit. The property manager was super responsive! Overall great stay, thank you!

Cozy with amazing ocean views
Perfect spot for our family of four. The property had everything we needed for a relaxing week away. We made the trip to Bar Harbor to shop and hike Acadia trails. There were also a few amazing restaurants just a quick drive away (highly recommend The Treehouse Seaside Grill in Winter Harbor). After a day of exploring we took advantage of the many board game available then were lulled to sleep by the soothing sounds of ocean waves.

Amazing Property!
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this property! I do not believe the pictures do it justice! As a sidenote, everyone fell in love with the shower on the main floor! We had to fight over who got to take a shower there. The water pressure was amazing. The location was a little away from Bar Harbor and the main Acadia national Park, but that’s what we strive for. There was no traffic going to the park, but it was a solid 45 to 50 minute drive. We do plan on returning!

Beautiful home in a peaceful, gorgeous location
Visited in late June with our family and absolutely loved our stay. The property is beautiful and quiet - we loved having the windows open all night and enjoying the fresh air and sounds of the ocean. All bedrooms and bathrooms were well appointed, clean, and comfortable! The kitchen is incredibly well stocked and we made use with big family dinners on the patio. Loved the grill + fire pit as well. The surrounding area is very quiet - but we took a quick + easy hour drive to visit Bar Harbor and Acadia a few times as well. Schoodic Point is minutes away. The host was very communicative. All around we highly recommend! Bring a book, some games, and prepare to relax in a beautiful setting.
