Maine Family Vacation

Great property! Close to Bar Harbor and Acadia. Suggest Whale Watching Tour and sunrise at Cadillac Mountain. We also kayaked on the river right behind the house. Lots today in the area. Enjoyed having a place that was central to what the family wanted to do. Owner kept in touch and was very responsive to our requests. Would go back again!!

Family vacation

The house was great for our family of 6 adults and 2 children. Loved being on the lake. View was fantastic. Made use of the kayak and loved seeing the bald eagle flying about. Not a far drive from Bar Harbor and Acadia National Park. And also enjoyed Ellsworth.

Wonderful Accommodations!

We picked the more centralized location of Ellsworth for our Acadia/Bar Harbor touring on our first trip to Maine because Bar Harbor is pricey and crowded. This house was more than we expected it to be. The views are stunning and the deck and outside areas are very nice! As this place was mid-stay for our tour, the access to a washer and dryer was welcomed. Would definitely stay here again!

So good to relax

Rented this property for myself and 4 other coworkers from across the country while we in the area for training. While we put in very long days at work, it was so good to come back to a place that felt like a vacation. I don’t get that kind of feeling from staying in hotels, which I stay in frequently, so this was a treat, especially with the quiet location and amenities of the property. Will definitely look to stay here the next time we get together in this part of Maine!

Maine house on the water

The property is very private, surrounded by woods. The home was perfect and full of windows overlooking the river that wrapped around the point. The pictures do not do it justice. There is plenty of room to relax indoors or out. Bar Harbor and Acadia National Park are nearby as many other local destinations. We enjoyed sitting around the fire pit and kayaking just out the back door. The host was very attentive and easily available to contact, if needed. Staying in this home and the beautiful spot it’s on was in and of itself a retreat. We hope to return.

Amazing property

From the moment we step in to the house we knew we had made the right decision. The view of the river was fantastic. We discovered an eagles nest across the river and watched it catch fish a soar up and down the river. The house was equipped with everything we needed we highly recommend this property to anyone traveling to the Bar Harbor area. The next time we visit Maine, we will definitely stay there. It was a pleasure speaking with the owner. He also sent a list of places to visit and the best places to eat

Yearly Fall Excursion with Close Friends

We are four couples that have traveled together for years. This is on of the best homes we have ever stayed for our fall vacation. The owner was very quick to respond to any questions we had. The property is secluded along a quiet river with impressive viewes. There is plenty of room both inside and outside the home. Acadia National Park is a short drive away with amazing views and trails for all levels of hikers. And don't forget, this is LOBSTER country. Visit one of the many lobster pounds in the area.

Family Trip to Maine

The house and property were fantastic. There was plenty of room in the house for everyone to enjoy, especially the great room. The back patio was awesome to sit and relax. Very quiet and excellent views of the river. For those that went paddle boarding on the river, they were greeted every day by a curious seal. Great place to stay!

Awesome Large Family Home

For our group of 10, the spacious layout of this property was awesome. Jonathan was most helpful right from the early stages of booking. Thank you. A couple of items that would have been helpful in the property description: no AC, & no blinds to keep out early morning sun One member of our family is wheelchair bound so the entrances were challenging, but with a couple of strong family members we were able to make do. Once inside great. Many thanks.

Family Gathering

We had a fabulous visit to Maine and Acadia National Park. The home was in a perfect location and was peaceful setting. We saw seals swimming in the river and tracked bald eagles flying along the shoreline. The owner communicated well and the property accommodated our party of 10 nicely! We would definitely stay again if we return to Maine. If you are looking for activities, sign up for the Cadillac Mountain sunrise tour and e bike on the carriage trails. Once of our best activities ever on our annual family trips.

The home was wonderful. Lots of space for family of all ages to enjoy. The rooms were wonderfully prepared- comfortable beds, plenty of blankets, as well as items to enjoy. There were books, puzzles, and games for all ages. The pool table was enjoyed. We definitely plan to return in the future, The view was absolutely gorgeous. Also very close to Acadia and lots to see. Again a perfect place to disconnect and recharge while connecting with family & friends

Ellsworth Cottage on Union River

Our stay was amazing. We enjoyed everything it had to offer. There were 8 of us staying for a family vacation. The home is in a beautiful private spot on the Union River and still very close by to everything at the same time. We spent most of our time in Bar Harbor and Acadia National Park. Thanks so much for allowing us to vacation here. We had a blast!

Great memories made here!

A wonderful place perfect for large families! A short drive to Acadia and Bar Harbor. Well equipped kitchen if you’re cooking in. Our favorite spot in the evening was around the fire pit- a nice glass of wine, listen to the birds and watch the sunset. There was even a bald eagle right across the water- beautiful!

Excellent Downeast Experience

Having grown up in Maine, I had a pretty good idea of what Maine was all about. This property, however, showed me Maine’s beauty like I had never seen before. The views of the river are spectacular. Waking up to a view from the apartment was a real treat. It was a beautiful place to spend quality time with my family. Everything we wanted to do was within a 40 min. drive. We biked the Carriage Trail in Acadia. We went fishing on Branch Lake. We also mountain biked some great trails in the Wildlands in Orlando. This property was the perfect jumping off point. The pool table was a lot of fun as well.

About the host

Hosted by Jon Fanburg

Host profile image
We lived in this beautiful home for 10 years before moving to Portland, Maine because of our jobs. I won't sell the home because I LOVE the home and location. We have shared the home with over 100 happy renters over the last ten years - just check out the great reviews.

Why they chose this property

True tranquility made us buy this house. Large rooms with high ceilings and big windows make you feel like you are part of nature. At night, you can see the stars from you bed. An added perk is being only 20 minutes from the hiking of Acadia National Park. But you don't even need to travel that far, as seals, osprey, and bald eagles hang out along the river's edge out back of the house.

What makes this property unique

LOBSTER - I LOVE IT. I use to park my boat out back and go check the traps each morning. For those without a boat, you can buy it fresh within 10 minutes of the house (both cooked or live).
