Perfect to explore Down East Maine!

My wife and I and 2 hounds spent 2 wonderful weeks at this property. It was so clean and comfortable and had everything we needed for our stay. New appliances and very well stocked kitchen. Great communication when needed. We would recommend to 2 couples or small families looking for a central location to explore, Acadia, Ellsworth, Schoodic Point, Petit Menan, Machias, Milbridge, and beyond. R and J Butcher

Our favorite place to stay

This is our 2nd year renting with the owner, we love the house and location. The house is so clean and stocked with enough towels, kitchen necessities, and other things you might need while staying. They even have a grill, outdoor fire pit, outdoor lounge chairs and a patio table. With 2 cottages on the property they are far enough away from each other for privacy and sit back far enough from the road.

July, 2024 stay

The house was extraordinarily clean and comfortable. It was very quiet at night. The location is great for exploring Schoodic area. Driving times to other areas of Acadia and to Bar Harbor are quite reasonable. I would definitely recommend this property for a small (3-4) group.

Great VRBO experience

The house we stayed at was in a wonderful location. Only about 30 minutes from Schoodic Point and 40 from Bar Harbor and the other side of Acadia. It had all amenities and the host definitely had a mind for details. She thought of everything. Great spot out back to sit by the fire and make s’mores. This was the best VRBO we have ever stayed at. If you want a higher end experience for not a lot of money, stay here. We also had the opportunity meet the host/owner and she was very pleasant. Great vacation!!

Lobster Chairs

Charming house that seems like it was just recently built. Nice layout, well stocked kitchen, great outside seating, good quiet location. It's difficult to think of any negative to this house. I suppose the only suggestions I have are flip the bathroom door latch bolt so the door closes properly. Also, there are many fine, affordable toilet papers that are septic tank friendly.

Weekend in Maine

This house is the perfect fit for those who are looking for the comfort of a home that you will not spend a lot of time at. Yet it is perfect for those who would spend a lot of time there. Easy drive to Acadia National Park. Tidal Falls is right down the road. There wasn't anything that the owner did not think of. Plenty of Towels, hand towels, and wash clothes. They provided all the essentials for our length of stay. It should be noted that the coffee maker is a Keurig. Upon our arrival there was a handwritten note to us with a jar of Blueberry Jam and a Dog bone for our boy. The only suggestion that we have is to provide a stick vacuum to run on the floor for those who are coming with pets. Thank you for a great weekend stay.

Perfect location not far from Acadia

This location was perfect for my family in one house and my parents in the other house on the property. We enjoyed meeting in the evenings for fun around the fire pit (firewood and fire-starter paper included). The house was clean, spacious, and about 30-40 min to Acadia. It was about a 10 min drive to Ellsworth for shopping and dining. Do not forget to bring your own toiletries (shampoo, conditioner) and coffee capsules, since these are not provided.

A Quaint Stay

My family and I had an amazing time at this home! It was clean, well organized, the fire pit was amazing, (they left us wood ) and there was some treats left for us in the kitchen! Tiffany was super quick with communication and very helpful. I highly recommend staying here! The house is a perfect location for a various entry points for the park. I highly recommended you stay !
