About this property

Cozy Dog Friendly House with Deck, Firepit & Fast WiFi in Heart of Bar Harbor

Nestled among centuries old pines in the heart of Bar Harbor, Devilstone Cottage Estate’s Guest House offers a unique retreat within easy reach of Acadia National Park. Available year-round, this home is built on the site of the carriage house for one of the original mansions dating back to the town's emergence as a vacation spot in the 1800's when the Vanderbilts and other notable magnates first started visiting. Boasting a private deck and outdoor seating with a firepit, this two-story Cape Cod style home connects to the Shore Path making for an easy stroll to restaurants and shopping in town.

The interior features a living room with a vaulted ceiling that opens to the second story. A master bedroom with a king bed and den with sofa bed are on the ground floor while two more bedrooms are upstairs. The ground floor bedroom features an en suite bath with a large soaking tub and stall shower. A second, full bath is shared between the den and the rest of the household. The upstairs master bedroom also features an en suite bath. A fourth, full bathroom is also located upstairs.

The kitchen is fully stocked for home cooking and meals that can be enjoyed either at the six-seater dining tables inside or out on the deck. The living room offers a cozy place to unwind and gather for family movie nights on the large, smart TV.

In the evening, gather around the firepit, listen to the pine trees sway in the breeze and watch as the stars come out.

Delightul

The cottage had everything we needed for our family. The privacy for the location on the tiny island and access to the city were perfect. It was a wonderful location that provided great access to Acadia NPS.

Weekend in Bar Harbor Nov 2024

Had a great time at the Guest Cottage. It was well appointed with amenities as described in the listing and was clean and exactly as the pictures showed. It is a short walk to Main Street shops and restaurants and a short drive to Acadia hiking trails. We enjoyed it very much!

Fabulous Acadia trip

The Devilstone Way cottage was perfect for our short visit to Acadia NP. Dog friendly, easy walk into town so no need to find parking and very close to Acadia. Totally worth the price- many thanks to our generous host

Grandma comfort - prime location

This house was located in a perfect location from everythign you would want when visting Bar Harbor. Restaurants, shops, the park and so much more. It is crazy clean, beds are comfy and showers are hot with great pressure. While it isn't the most updated inside, it gives you the feel of cozy comfort of grandma's house, and honestly, the world needs more of that! The property manager was amazing, responsive and helpful. We loved the area so much and will come back and stay here again! THANK YOU SO MUCH!

Bar Harbor Adventure

We picked this house for the location and it did not disappoint! Within walking distance to everything you need in Bar Harbor (restaurants, shopping, grocery store). We were even able to walk to Bar Harbor bike shop and rent e-bikes to ride into the park. Avoiding car traffic in the park was a big plus! Next time we come we would love to stay at the big house (Devilstone Cottage) which has spectacular grounds and is right on the water.

Retirement Teip

House was perfect for our needs. Close to the shore path for morning walks. Great location to park the car and walk to town for shopping and meals. It is also conveniently located to one of the entry’s to Acadia. I found the owner very easy to reaching and very responsive to any of my questions. The house had everything we needed in the way of appliances/utensils, towels etc. We were extremely happily with all aspects of our stay.
