Love this happy house

The house was so comfortable and beautifully decorated. The kitchen was nicely stocked with dishes and cookware. We loved sitting on the porch at night. The location was great for visiting Acadia and adorable little towns. Just down the road was a great trail through the woods, a really fun and easy hike right in the neighborhood. The property owners were very helpful. This was a favorite getaway!

Perfect For Us

We came from western NY to celebrate our 47th anniversary. The home was spotless. Beds and other furniture were all comfortable and all appliances were operational. Living in the same sort of 1890’s house throughout our marriage, we fully appreciated what it must have taken to renovate this house so beautifully. The location was convenient to all that area has to offer.

This property does not disappoint! Rustic yet modern with all the conveniences you’d expect. Make breakfast in the beautiful kitchen before you head out for the day to explore and relax at night in climate controlled comfort. Our family of five (4 adults) would happily return. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Beautiful, peaceful home

We loved our stay and found the home to be perfect for our needs! Our teens’ only complaint was that we didn’t stay longer! The way the light comes through the kitchen in the morning, fully stocked kitchen, clear directions on how to use everything, and thoughtful touches made it even better.

Home Away from Home

This was our first trip to Maine and this house was a perfect place to fit the vision we had of a small little cabin in the "woods". We absolutely loved not only the aesthetic of this home, but the personal touches the owners made to make us feel like we were at home. We would love to come back to Maine with our kiddos and fully plan on staying here again, as well as share this with anyone planning to visit. We highly recommend you check this place out as well...you won't be disappointed.

Charming Scandinavian 2BR post-and-beam home

Beautiful remolded home with rustic barn beams ceilings giving a romantic charm. Modern updates in the bath areas and a large soaking tub to relax in. The kitchen and dining area has new appliances and large table to enjoy meals. The new washer and dryer is a major bonus when traveling. We loved our stay and relaxed on the couch watching TV after visiting near by Acadia National Park and Bar Harbor during the day. Jenn & Soren are were very helpful and communicated with us in a timely manner. We had all the comforts of home and more. We will definitely keep them in mind for future stays!

A gem in beautiful Maine

What a great place to stay! The interior was so relaxing and comfortable! The bed was great! Loved the color scheme throughout the house. Nicely decorated. The bathrooms were beautiful! Everything was sparkling clean 😊👏! The location was nice and private, but the drive to Bar Harbor and Acadia National Forest is only about 20 miles with lots of pretty scenery along the way! Ellsworth had some great restaurants that we absolutely loved! Jenn & Soren thank you for sharing your lovely house with us. You made our first trip to Maine that much more enjoyable.

Beautiful place; good location

I was pleasantly surprised to find such a nice place late in our search. S&J have done a wonderful job creating a clean, fresh and inviting space to stay, although we weren’t here too much…out exploring Acadia all day! I loved coming home to soak in the deep tub after a strenuous day of hiking/biking. Spacious kitchen that well stocked and lots of “extra touches” like scented bath lotion, laundry detergent supplied and fluffy towels. We liked being equal distance from Schoodic Peninsula and the main part of Acadia. Grocery stores and DT close if you need things. Note: it is close to Rt. 1 (main road) and so you do hear road traffic noise if that kind of thing bothers you.
