Close to Acadia

Great apartment very close to restaurants and a short drive to Acadia. Great to be so close but away from the crowds in Bar Harbor. We had everything we needed, and excellent communication with our host.

Very comfortable

We really enjoyed our stay. The apartment was spacious and comfortable. The bed and bedding were great! Place was very clean. Close to a small grocery store and coffee shop. You could hear traffic from the main road but otherwise it was quite. I'd stay here again if we every come back.

Great spot!

A gem of a find! It was well appointed in the kitchen, very clean, comfortable beds, lots of towels, plenty of space for 2. I appreciated the hosts' welcome email with ideas of places to explore and restaurants to try. There was even a basket with maps and more information. It's far enough away from the bustle of Bar Harbor yet easy enough to get to aspects of Acadia National Park quickly.

This condo was so conveniently located very close to Acadia National Park and Bar Harbor. It was very large and SPOTLESS. The owner, Tim, was very helpful and gave us numerous suggestions for things to do around the area. It's also walking distance to a supermarket and mini golf, which was a lot of fun. The condo is located right on Main Street so there is some car noise if you're sensitive to that type of thing but we were out most of the day, so it wasn't an issue for us. Would highly recommend staying here!

Fantastic Three-night Stay

This is an exceptionally comfortable rental, close enough to Acadia N.P. and Bar Harbor but just far enough away as to provide some relief from the crowds. The apartment had all the home-away-from-home necessities, including a fully stocked kitchen, separate dining area, very comfortable bedding, cozy living room area with a large TV, etc. The unit was immaculately clean upon my arrival and everything was in good working order. Tim is an outstanding host and was highly communicative with clearly articulated check-in info, house details and area recommendations. I would recommend this property without hesitation for any travelers seeking a one-bedroom accommodation. Hope to return in the future!

Nice sized place!

Decent place to stay as long as the noise from the busy road in front of the place does not bother you. The unit had everything we needed with the exception of ice trays. That’s so minor but I like ice in my water bottle when I’m packing up to go and is an easy fix. Pillows, bed, sofas and blankets were all comfortable which is the most important part! Owner was friendly and welcoming.

Unit not shared during check in

This is an apartment/unit in a building with 4 rental options. The unit number was not listed in the checkin email/ details and cell service was nonexistent (Verizon is my carrier). We had to just guess which unit based on cars in the assigned parking spaces and then try door codes. Would recommend adding the unit number clearly to the check in details

Convenient

The location is convenient to Southwest Harbor and Acadia, though you cannot easily walk to town. The house is on the main highway, so you are near but require a car. The unit is on the second floor, spacious and comfortable. The only downside is, again, the proximity to the highway. Open windows don't work due to the noise. The owner is extremely accommodating.

Southwest Harbor Accommodation

This was a very convenient location for accessing Acadia National Park and it was a very comfortable place to stay. There were plenty of cooking utensils in the kitchen. There was a minor amount of traffic noise. The line of site for leaving the property could be improved if the neighbor trimmed their tree.

Perfect stay....

Great property, wonderful hosts. Clean, cozy, and just a short distance from groceries, shops, lighthouses, & restaurants in Southwest Harbor. With easy access to Acadia and an easy drive to Bar Harbor, the peace and quiet found here is perfect...away from the chaos of Bar Harbor. Rent a bike in town and you have all you need.

Spacious place for two on the "Quiet Side"

Place was very spacious for two people. Clean and sufficiently appointed for us. Had to set up a fan to get the cool air from the A/C to the bedroom, but not a big deal for us. Don't understand why they don't put a sofa bed in the living room and allow more people to stay, such as a teenager who doesn't care where they sleep. Folks downstairs in unit 1 said our footsteps made a lot of noise, but we were just walking normally in socks. I think the engineered flooring needs some sound deadening below it.

Wonderful rental!

We enjoyed our stay here very much. It was nicer and much larger than expected from the pictures. Everything was clean, comfortable bed, large living room with multiple sofas, well appointed large kitchen and dining area. It is less than a mile from Southwest Harbor and easy access to Acadia. I would definitely stay here for future visits to Acadia area.

Fall Road Trip

Great location, clean and had everything we needed. Power outage happened, but the owner had a generator and didn't miss a beat! He kept us informed of progress of the work being done by the town until power was restored. Close to trails and some really great restaurants. Very pleased

Our research indicated that the property was close to a busy road and that was true. We kept the bedroom windows closed at night and didn't have a problem. The location was very good and it was easy to reach anywhere on Mt Desert Island. It would be nice to have A/C in the bedroom; the fan there was not very functional. The host was great and we enjoyed our stay. Much better than staying in Bar Harbor !

Clean and easy drive to Acadia

The property is as listed. Note that it is in a multi unit building. Be sure to be receive your unit number prior to check in. We were not given the unit number, but a phone call to Tim fixed that problem. The building is on Main Street but was not loud. Easy 15 minute drive to Acadia. If you want to catch the free shuttle to the park, the walk to the stop is over a mile but there is a municipal lot in downtown SW harbor in which to park to catch the shuttle. All and all, great place to stay.

Nice place with no worries!

On the quieter stay of the island so depends on what you are looking for. Was easy to get around the island to see different places and get to Acadia National Park. In our unit there were a couple of beach chairs and beach towels which were nice to have and we took them to Echo Lake Beach very close by and much less busy than Sand Lake. Asked a couple questions of the owner and he was very responsive. Place was very clean and well stocked. We would recommmend staying here without question!
