Check-in was a breeze. Door code to use made it easy. Beautiful and spacious house. Kitchen was very well stocked; had everything we needed. Plenty of towels and pillows. Beds are comfortable. Spacious deck and big yard. The shoreline access was easy, and a great view. Itâs a nice bay for an easy kayak ride. Would recommend for a large group!
The house was very spacious for a large family. The kitchen was fully stocked with dishes, and needed supplies which was really helpful. It was very clean. Lots of games and movies to choose from. The host was very responsive to my questions.
Our stay was fantastic. The house was amazing with more than enough room for 15 of us! We are a group of friends that do photography together but are not "super close"! The house provided enough space for us all to be comfortable and have privacy. The deck, yard and waterfront were beautiful. There is no A/C but fans for each room were included. The only issue I had was the list of "chores" upon checkout, sweeping, vacuuming, stripping all the bedding, starting laundry....we paid 1,400 in fees, I would not expect to have to clean the house.
We stayed here for a weekend to attend a wedding at Bar harbor ⊠beautiful house , quiet, little far to Bar harbor 40-45 minute drive .. a/c would be great but did cool off throughout night ⊠overall this house was 5 stars ⊠wish we could of stayed at the house longer to enjoy the grounds!
This is a lovely property that is very well kept. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in the house. We were a group of 10 moms with 2 kids 6 and under and we had more than enough space to enjoy and not feel cramped and on top of each other.
Very nice for a large group with a great location close to both parts of Acadia (Mt Desert Island and Schoodic Peninsula). Our group of 10 adults and 3 teenagers had more than enough room. We loved the game room and the kayaks
5 sisters 2 sister/cousins and 6 daughters annual gathering. Perfect place to get together, plenty of space for everyone. Not enough paper towels and toilet paper for 13 people even though rental says holds 14
I celebrated my 30th birthday with my family and my partner's family. There was ample space for all of us to be together and spread out around the house. There are kayaks that are shared with the other properties by the water and we had our own fire pit. Plenty of space for cooking. Shawn was very responsive to our needs as they came up during our stay and was very helpful. We would definitely book this place again if we all end up in the Acadia area.
House was great & perfect for all 12 of us. Hostess was great with communication & responded quickly. The is no A/C. It was not a deal breaker. Our last day was in the 90s. It was hot but managable. There was a breeze with the windows open & fans in every room. About 30-45 mins from Bar Harbor & Acadia. Great location to be outside of the hussle & bussle of the attractions. Walk down to the water is beautiful & there are kayaks to use. Great house to rent.
Perfection for lots of people near Acadia and Bar Harbor
For our 50th anniversary we decided to take our entire family to Acadia. I researched every lodging option for a group of 13. This house sounded perfect. And it was! There was plenty of room for all 13 (8 adults, 3 teens, 2 kids). Everyone had a room with a door. The house was immaculate. The kitchen was packed with everything we could possibly need or want. The showers were wonderful and we never ran out of hot water. The linens were plentiful and if good quality. We used the grill daily and the fire pit once. WIFI was decent and there were so many TVs with a Roku in each.
The location was great for Acadia, provisioning, and seeing the area.
We had a great time. Thank you Shawn and Christine.
This house was amazing for our party of 8 (4 children + 4 adults). Lots of room for everyone, beds were comfy, house was VERY clean and located very close to shops for groceries. Hosts were quick to answer any questions we had. Only thing I would mention is that to get to the water you do have to walk past the house between this house & the inlet, so if it also has guests, you are walking down their driveway & through the edge of their yard to get to it. Not a big deal but they may wonder why you're walking down towards their rental :) I put this comment just for other renters as we were confused & had to ask the Hosts as we didn't want to go the wrong way. But overall the stay was amazing & we will certainly consider this location again should we go back to the area. Thank you!!
I wouldnât say the house is a new build, but it is spacious and comfortable. Very well stocked game closet which the kids appreciated. Well stocked movie room which was also nice. We think that a 10 am checkout is a bit early, especially for large groups with children. And we had an issue with hot water.
It was a spacious home and a comfortable enough place. It does not necessarily give a homey feel but does have plenty of games, books, and kitchen supplies which was very helpful. As most places in Maine, it does not have AC and windows need to be left open. The majority of the time it was at a reasonable temperature.
Although the house is close to the water and you can see glimpses of it from the house, I wouldn't classify it as waterfront. You need to walk down someone else's driveway to reach the kayaks and water's edge. It never became an issue with the neighbors though.
