Great spot to be in Bar Harbor!
We loved this rental! You are just steps from all the shops and restaurants, but since it's on a side street, it was very quiet. Erik answered any questions immediately and the pics on the site were spot on. Easy access to Acadia National Park. Would definitely rent here again.

Excellent Stay
First of all, Eric was a great host. The Loon Nest was an excellent stay for our first time in Bar Harbor. The property is just a short walk to all the attractions of the town of Bar Harbor and a short drive or bike to Acadia. After a day of hiking, shopping, and a big lobster feast this was excellent place to relax. Highly recommend.

Week in Bar Harbor
A well-maintained roomy apartment on two floors with a separate entrance and balcony in an older building. Both the living room on the 2nd floor and bedroom on the 3rd floor are good-sized and the separate kitchen has all that one needs to cook. Ideal for an extended stay where one wants to spread out. Location is excellent a few blocks from Main St and the free Acadia shuttles. The host was very helpful. We would readily return for an extened stay.

Perfect for exploring Bar Harbor and Acadia. The village green, restaurants, and shops are a short walk away, and the park entrance is less than 10 minutes away. The owner is very helpful and responsive and the apartment includes lots of maps and other information about the park.

A Great Week
We come to Bar Harbor every year. This was a wonderful place to stay--perfect location, close to shops and restaurants but at the same time very quiet (and with a shady balcony that was perfect for reading). And Eric was quick to respond to any questions. We had a great week.

We had a great time in Bar Harbor. The condo was nice and clean when we arrived. The location was great and very walkable to shops and restaurants. We had no hair dryer there when we arrived but Eric had one delivered that afternoon. He responded quickly whenever we needed to ask any questions or had any concerns.

This property is in a great location. Easy to walk to bars, restaurants, sight seeing. It does have lots of stairs to walk up and down. Neighborhood is quiet and peaceful. The instruction book needs to be clearer. Checkout time is not in book. It was confusing.

Good times at the Loon's Nest
This location is actually a great spot. You can walk everywhere in town. Two floors give guests lots of space, along with the private balcony. Easy walks to coffee shops and restaurants. Lots of retail shops too. The host was helpful and provided fast responses when needed. If you're ok with stairs then this is the place for you.

Great find in the heart of downtown Bar Harbor
We truly enjoyed our stay at the Loon Nest. The location is ideal and Eric (our host) had it stocked with everything one could possibly need! We would not hesitate to recommend it or to stay there again. One tiny thing: the pillows could be refreshed.

Great Location
You can't beat the location and Eric communicates very well through the entire process. We were able to walk to restaurants and it's only 2 blocks to the Village Green where you can grab an Island Shuttle into Acadia. Free parking out front and easy walk into town. The accommodations were as described but it is not fancy. Kitchen was adequate but we only cooked one dinner there and a few breakfasts. We left a few wine glasses as we couldn't find any. There is no a/c but a large fan that cools down the upper floor. We would not hesitate to stay here again given the location and responsiveness of the owner.

Eric was very responsive. He stayed in regular communication before and during our visit; providing helpful tips on dining and getting around the island. Not enough time in a week to eat and see all the attractions….a great apartment location to walk into town in 5 minutes. (Less on a bike). Thanks again Eric

Convenient Location
The unit is located walking distance from Bar Harbor restaurants and gift shops. It is also about a 10 minute drive to Acadia National Park. The dedicated parking spot was a plus as parking is at a premium in Bar Harbor. A tip for travelers - Best spots for Lobster Rolls and Lobster are Beale's, Thurstons, and Charlotte's. Avoid the Bar Harbor restaurants. The three listed are about a 20 minute drive from the unit but absolutely well worth the trip. The unit itself was clean, well furnished, and everything worked. We had no reason to contact the owner for any problems or issues with the unit. It was exactly as advertised.

Bar Harbor Vacation
We had a great experience with our stay in Bar Harbor. The apartment was clean and spacious. It was nice having the kitchen and living room on the second floor with the bedroom and master bath on the third floor. The location of the unit was outstanding being only a couple of blocks away from the center of Bar Harbor where all the stores, restaurants and bars are located. No need to drive anywhere except into Acadia National Park unless you take the free Island Express Shuttle Bus from the Village Green located two blocks away. Eric was an outstanding host staying in constant communication with any issues we had, which weren't many. The TV in the bedroom went out and he replaced it the next day. He provided all the essentials in the unit which really enhanced our stay. If we go back to Bar Harbor, we plan to stay here again. I would highly recommend staying at this apartment.
