Central Bar Harbor Location

My wife & I had a very good stay at this very nice apartment in very close walking distance to all the main attractions in Bar Harbor. You get your private little parking place included which is a big plus in this location. Kitchen was great for preparing any meals we did not eat out. Location is just all around perfect for both Bar Harbor & Acadia National Park!

Great location

Rental is on the small side and in need of some updating. With that said, it's in a great location and when you go to Bar Harbor you will likely be spending most of your time outside anyway!

Location!

We could walk to everything in this lovely little town! It was very convenient! The property has basics for the stay. We could have used trash cans in the restroom and in other rooms. A little more cleaning could have been useful. The owner was very responsive. If you are light sleeper like me, and there are tenants above you, be aware, you can hear every step and even conversations. We tried to spend more time outside and it was perfect because the location is 1 minute to everything!

Literally the best possible location

Easy walk to the waterfront, village greens/parks, restaurants and everything you’d want to see in downtown BH. And it’s pretty quiet for such a central location.

Perfect spot in Bar Harbor

I stayed here in March with friends and plan to return this summer with my family. It was within easy walking distance of the harbor, shops, and restaurants. It's a comfortable, clean, and quiet place to stay and the owner couldn't have been more helpful. Kids and adults enjoyed Reel Pizza for an evening combining a movie and pizza. There are several cute places nearby to grab breakfast or indulge in lobster rolls. We can't wait to enjoy it in the summer too.

Why they chose this property

Be together or be independent. Maybe a Wednesday to Wednesday rental or the traditional Saturday is what you need so you can take advantage of lower airfares? Let us know and we will try to help. You don't have to do a lot of driving once you arrive there are free propane buses (not sure they are running this year) about two blocks away or bike into the park. You have probably driven long enough. A small family can travel together and easily have flexibility of being in the Village. Small beach for little tiny kids is next to the Bar Harbor pier ( about 1 1/2 blocks away) See the many things going on in Bar Harbor Chamber of Commerce site and I could give you my recommendations after you arrive.

What makes this property unique

You receive 20% off at Ambrosia Cooking School while staying at the property.
