Great Place, Great Location

We've often stayed at the Bar Harbor Inn for an oceanside view, but that's becoming crazy-expensive. We decided to try a Vacasa via VRBO, and we were very happy here. This has ample space, a well-stocked kitchen, two bathrooms, and a nice sitting area. It's a three-minute walk to the shore path, with some nice benches to sit and enjoy the view. Most everything on the main street in BH is walkable from here. This'll definitely be an option when we return to BH!

Great Location, good stay.

The Albert Meadow property is in a great location. We could walk anywhere in Bar Harbor in 5-10 minutes. Also, the parking spaces were great. The house is very spacious with a large kitchen, dining area, and living room. Everything was spotlessly clean. The bedroom is tight, and the bathroom off the bedroom needs more shelving. However, the second bathroom was very nice. We also enjoyed afternoon snacks on the deck and stargazing after a 2 -minute walk to the shoreline. A very nice stay.

The unit is spacious and well furnished for an extended stay. The location is perfect, so close to Main Street and a very short walk to the shore path. Good cable and internet. Owners were very nice and easy to get in touch with. Parking was easy, which can be a problem in Bar Harbor. Definitely recommend!

Lovely Painted Lady in Bar Harbor

This listing was for the first level, left side, of a beautiful Victorian-style house right off of the green. It was perfect for our stay in Bar Harbor. A quick walk to everything you could need.

Perfect location, lovely property

Spacious home, comfortable furnishings, and one block off of Main St. Great restaurants and spectacular hiking/views. Free public transportation to hiking trailheads. Only suggestion is to have an instruction manual for the property's HVAC system and TV/Wi-Fi.

Clean and Very Convenient

After initial confusion in locating the property and parking, our stay was delightful. The rental was clean and perfect for a couple. Easy walk to so many locations in town and on the shore path. Highly recommend this property.

Perfect , perfect, perfect

I can’t stress enough how perfect this location was for us. We hiked Acadia several days, and it was a 5 minute drive there. The condo is right around the corner from Main Street in Bar harbor. We walked to all the shops and restaurants plus down the shore path many times. The condo is very clean and beautifully furnished. Plenty of linens and towels along with paper products were supplied. They even provide nice soaps and shampoos if you need them. Two bathrooms makes it even more perfect. You won’t regret staying here if you come to Bar Harbor. Plus, the best ice cream shop is right up the street on the corner. I would definitely stay here again!

Great flat in great location in Bar Harbor

My wife, our 13yr old daughter and I stayed here for 5 nights. The flat is is in the first story of a 2 story commercial house. Everything was exactly as advertised. The place was very clean and well-equipped. You can't beat this location in Bar Harbor just off of Main St, a short walk to lots of shopping and great restaurants, and a short walk to the waterfront. We did have an issue with the circuit breaker tripping on the power strip for the TV and modem/router. This caused our WiFi service to be intermittent for a couple of days. The local team replaced the power strip however so this shouldn't be a problem going forward. All in all, highly recommended - we would definitely stay here again!

Wonderful property

This property is extremely clean and the location is fabulous. 3 minutes and you’re walking the shore path. 2 minutes and you’re walking down Main Street with shops and restaurants all around. The property is also spacious for 2 people and we loved having the luxury of a second bathroom. We are retired and rent a lot of properties. I would not hesitate to rent this one again.

Long Weekend in Bar Harbor

We spent a long weekend at this house. It's just down the street from the lovely Shore Path, walkable to schooner and sightseeing tours and ferry to Nova Scotia. Just around the corner from the very busy main street, teaming with tourist shops and visitors. While the house was well equipped, we did not have control over the heat, and Vacasa was unresponsive to messages and texts sent with questions about that and other things.

Wonderful and spacious apartment in the center of Bar Harbor

We loved our stay! The apartment was immaculate and spacious. The location is right off of Main St in Bar Harbor, but the apartment was very quiet. There’s a lovely outdoor deck with a small table. We hope to return.
