Strawberry Delight!

Beautiful home, clean, comfortable, so many little extra’s to make our stay wonderful. 15 minute walk to all of Bar Harbor’s activities and attractions. Short drive to the visitors center and Acadia, recommend just parking there and using the free bus system to get to all of Acadia’s attractions. This is a perfect place to stay to enjoy the area!

This is a quiet neighborhood and shady house on the edge of town. We all had a lovely stay here. The public works yard down the hill was a bit noisy.

Great Stay

The house was located in a perfect location just outside of town, close enough to walk to all that Bar Harbor has to offer and far enough out to be nice and quiet. All communication was very smooth and any questions we had were promptly answered. It was a wonderful experience for us having this stay be our base to explore the island!

An excellent place

This place was excellent. A quiet setting, yet close enough to downtown to walk, if you’re inclined. The kitchen and living room area are especially nice, and the kitchen was well equipped. The living room furniture is new and comfortable. There are many thoughtful decorative touches inside, and even pretty flower gardens outside. Good showers and washing machine/dryer. One of the very best rentals we have stayed at.

Perfect house, quiet and walkable to Bar Harbor

This house exceeds our expectations. It is on a quiet street, Strawberry Hill Road, about .7 miles from town, an easy walk to the waterfront and the Bar Harbor stores and restaurants. There were 3 spacious bedrooms and an extra room that we used as a study but could be an additional bedroom. The kitchen, dining areas, and seating areas inside and out were spacious and perfect for our family of six. I highly recommend this property.

Great place to stay!

We LOVED our stay here and would definitely come back any time! Easy to walk or drive to town, and super close to a few different entrances into the park. The house is adorable, spacious, and was perfect for our small group of friends! The host was super responsive to a few questions we had, and we felt right at home.

Cozy Cottage in an Ideal Location

We were in town to explore Acadia Natl Park and also run the MDI races and this location was perfect. Close to town and also quiet and secluded in the trees. Everything we needed (and more) was at the house and our family of 6 slept comfortably in the 3 bedrooms.
