Great Property

If you are looking for a pet friendly property with views this is for you. The house was very clean and the kitchen is very well stocked. Had a little issue with the batteries being dead on the code lock but the management company was very responsive and told us how to get in!!! I would definitely rent again!

Very large house/property, everything you could need

Overall, the property was very large, and there was plenty of room for many people. The views in the back were lovely! The house was very clean on the inside, and I have to say it had the most well stocked kitchen of any home I have rented. Also, they gave more than enough towels, which is always appreciated. The few downsides I could mention would be that the garage side of the house needed a power washing, given it was the first impression when pulling in. Also, the garden/yard seemed overgrown, and those were the first things we saw. But, those were just minor things, and overall, the house was very nice and we got comfortable quickly!

Very clean inside but needs work outside

We enjoyed our time at this property. Pretty good location to get to Schoodic Peninsula and Acadia. Though, getting to Acadia is a little far if that is your emphasis for your trip. The inside of the main house was very clean. Seating could be greatly improved. The furniture in the sunroom was almost unusable they were so uncomfortable. The kitchen needs some work. There are two lazy-susans, one of which almost fell on the floor when I tried to open it looking for a pot. Outside needs a lot or attention. It looks run-down and overgrown. You have to wind your way around bushes and plants to get to the front door. With Maine's tick problem, we were very careful to not touch any of the plants. The "garden" looks like it has not been touched in years. There are 4-5 falling-down wooden structures on the property. Just not appealing. Getting to the water is a problem. It is down a very steep hill over tree roots and decaying wooden stairs. The bench at the water front is overgrown with weeds and totally not usable.

Solid rental that fit our family

Although the location is a 35 minute drive from both sides of Acadia, it fit our needs and price range as a family of 6 with a dog. The home was well equipped and the rental agency was very thorough with communication. The back lawn access to the Narrows was lovely. Plenty of outdoor chairs. Kitchen materials were sufficient. The bathroom had a difficult time drying out after a few showers, even though there is a vent fan. The water was plenty hot. We did need to burn a candle often due to slight animal smells when returning to the house daily. Overall, it was what we expected from reading previous reviews.

Retirement Retreat

This was a wonderful property to relax in after retiring. We have been visiting ME for over 20 years but always on MDI. Sullivan was a great location; things to do close by but not too far to drive to Bar Harbor. Our plan is to retire and this home was a great way to glimpse what that might look like for us!

Amazing Location

The kids went straight to the water and before we even checked out the house, plans were being made for our next vacation here and renting this property. Waterfront property, fire pit, beautiful garden, completely fenced in yard for the pups, separate sleeping quarters above the garage for those who want to retreat from the kiddos, we had absolutely nothing but great things to say about this property. We will be back!

Rating Details: The property manager was more than helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was more than happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Charming , clean, equipped with everything that you might think of. Located on a shoreline. Unfortunately house itself is 55 minutes away from majority of trails in Acadia National Park We had a power outage in the last night of stay because of storm and management was rude over the phone, but it was 7am on Sunday, so not a big deal, she did sent a follow up message few minutes later apologizing. Overall happy with my stay anyway

So amazing that I wish I could keep it to myself!

We had the absolute BEST time here. The property was immaculate & exactly as advertised. There were no surprises at any point with billing, check-in, check-out, etc. The location was PERFECT for visiting Acadia & is relatively close to stores & takeout, but definitely feels remote (which we LOVED). We were even able to get an emergency doordash order of groceries we needed for a dinner we cooked during our stay. Oh! I almost forgot to mention that for those who enjoy some of the darker things in life, there is a beautiful cemetery next door! We were delighted to find it during our first chance to explore the property. Most importantly, we were able to bring our adventure-dog with us & she felt right at home here; it was nice to see her rest easy after long days of adventuring. TL;DR; The entire process was smooth sailing from start to finish, with incredibly accommodating hosts, & I fully regret that I didn't book for longer. We can't wait to make this our yearly vacation spot!!!

Things owners could not help- Hurricane Lee and the barrage of acorns on the metal roof that kept us from sleeping. Otherwise- Very convenient to both parts of Acadia and the sunsets over the narrows were absolutely gorgeous. The multitude of stars were spectacular.
