This was our second time staying in Janice's house. It is spacious, clean and comfortable, and Janice is a great host. The location is perfect for getting to the Hulls Cove Visitor Center for hiking and Bar Harbor for shopping and dining. I hope we'll be able to return for a third visit!
We loved our stay in in Janice's lovely cottage. It is even nicer than described. It also has a small private deck , of which don't believe is in the description. The cottage is very roomy and immediately feels like home .It's very convenient to Bar Harbor and most Acadia entrances. There is a great brewery that has tasty BBQ about one mile away. Also a cute market and a good pizza shop close by.I can't wait to come back!!
This house was very roomy and spacious, well stocked and the owner, Janice was a pleasure to work with. No issues whatsoever. Will definitely stay here again!
Perfect spot to act as our base of operations for our exploration of central Maine for the week. Comfortable, had everything we needed. Peaceful. Beautiful forested property. Highly recommend and DEFINITELY would return to same place for a future visit!
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this comfortable and spacious property. A lot of thought has gone into providing all of the things you need to make your stay convenient. I was especially happy with the variety and quality of the kitchen equipment. It made cooking easy.
Note that our stay was 5 weeks, and we could have been happy to stay longer.
The location is convenient, and there is a great pizza place very close by.
We just spent a wonderful week at this property. As other reviewers have noted, the house is very spacious, clean and comfortable. Even more important, its location is ideal--about 10-12 minutes from the Hulls Cove Visitors Center if you want to get info or hop on a bus to a hiking trailhead; about 15 minutes to Bar Harbor, less to S.W. Harbor or N.E. Harbor. Janice, the owner, is extremely responsive. We already booked for next year, so that says it all!
When you walk in the front door, this property feels like home. This home is perfect for 2 couples or a small family traveling together and is located in an ideal location from Bar Harbor. The recent addition of AC to the home made it all the more comfortable. We would definitely stay here again! Thank you, Janis! :)
Property was in a perfect location for easy access to all the Mount Desert Island attractions, especially Acadia National Park entrance. The house was very comfortable, kitchen very well equipped and in a pretty country location. It was so quiet at night I got the best sleep Iâve had in weeks. Beds very comfortable and bathrooms very spacious. Owners responded immediately when we had a minor issue. Iâll stay there again if we ever go back to Acadia.
Janice's home is spacious, airy, and clean. The home is full of thoughtful touches that show Janice cares about her guests' experience. Highly recommended! We have already booked for next year,
We loved the location! We like to get up early for sunrise and hikes, go back to the property for some rest and lunch, then back out again. We were so close to everything in Acadia, it was easy to relax here between events. We cooked some meals ourselves, but we were also close to takeout places. It was so spacious for just the two of us, but it was much more affordable than smaller places further away. A great stay!
This house is in a great location to explore Acadia and Bar Harbor. Just minutes to one of the park's entrances and 15 min to Bar Harbor. There is plenty of comfortable seating in the living room, and the kitchen was well supplied. We really enjoyed our week in Bar Harbor!
This house has everything you need, and nothing you don't need! Comfy beds, lots of space, great kitchen, wonderful outdoor space, and most of all, a personable & professional host.
As lovers of both Bar Harbor and the quiet side, we found this property to be perfectly situated mid island. It was quiet, cozy, and comfortable. Plenty of comfy seating, whether unwinding after a hike or reclining to read a book on a rainy day. Ample room, strong Wi-Fi, nice backyard space with grill. This really was a home away from home.
House was perfect for our stay. Very convenient to Acadia and Bar Harbor. House is clean, spacious & comfortable. Beds were sooo comfortable! Everything you need is provided. Janice is so easy to get ahold of if you need anything.
Very comfortable and convenient location for our interests in Ellsworth and Hancock County. We did Bar Harbor too, Seal Harbor North East Harbor, Bass Harbor, Bernard, South West Harbor, and Seal Cove Brass Era Auto Museum. Lots of places to see.
Kitchen well stocked with pots pans, dishes and utensils for cooking in. We also ate out, but breakfast in.
We believe place could be a bit cleaner but by end of season needing a complete deep cleaning, and as I understand many places were short on workers and cleaners this year.
House had everything we needed, and a great location on Mt. Desert Island
We had a great experience staying at this house. This house is in a country setting with 4 other houses on the same driveway. Rooms are very spacious, and kitchen is well equipped.
We were 10 - 15 minutes to Bar Harbor, Acadia and other small villages on the island.
I would definitely stay here again.
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this peaceful house located so close to Acadia National Park! The house is spacious and has a well-equipped kitchen, comfortable living room and large bedrooms. The location was convenient to tour all the different parts of Acadia, and we felt like we really got to know the island. It was great to return to this house after a long day touring the island. Our kids enjoyed the space also.
It's a nice, quiet wooded area. After a busy day of hiking, shopping, cycling, come home to a restful home with everything you need provided. Just bring your suitcase and relax!
