I could not have asked for a better stay! The house was the perfect setup. Lots of space and super homey. Also walking distance to Hadley point - a locals beach spot. You can also walk to the campground across the street and take the island explorer to town for FREE! Great hospitality. Would love to stay again!

Our host Dave was very responsive and it was a great place to stay! Location was great as it was away from Bar Harbor to miss out on all the traffic but not to far. The accommodation was exactly as stated and perfect for a couple. Very clean, quite and comfortable. I would recommend and stay again if I have the chance to visit Maine’s coast again.

We spent 5 nights in Bar Harbor and highly recommend this VRBO. It's located very close to downtown and the park entrances, while having a beach and great walking/running areas all around.The property was exactly as pictured, spotless, and very comfortable. The kitchen was well stocked for baking and cooking - a huge plus for us.Above all, Dave and Anna were wonderful hosts. They were so helpful, generous, and kind. Hope to return again!

Perfect for our week vacation
We could not of had a more perfect place to stay for our week at Acadia. Convenient location, accommodations were as nice as advertised, very clean, everything worked great. A very quiet street and the beach had beautiful sunsets and great star viewing. We made breakfast every morning and bag lunches before setting out for a day of adventures. The hosts, Dave and Anna are very friendly and do a great job

Quiet place in a great location
We enjoyed our stay here. It is walking distance to a nice beach area, with beautiful sunsets. The apartment is part of a larger home, with its own entrance, etc. It is in great condition and well maintained. We saw the owner, Dave, on our arrival, and he was available if we needed him, the rest of the week. We actually had no issues, so we didn't see him again. The house is in a beautiful wooded setting, with very few neighbors, so it is extremely quiet and has nice views of the surrounding trees, etc. There is a campground across the road, but we never heard any noise from it. All in all, we would definitely stay with them again!

Great Acadia Location
Quiet and comfortable apartment for a couple, conveniently located just a few minutes from the main Acadia Visitors Center. Kitchen is well equipped for preparing meals when you aren’t dining in Bar Harbor. We stayed a full week which was long enough to hit the Acadia highlights. Host was very responsive and helpful. We’ll book this VRBO again if we return to Acadia.

Couldn't Have Asked for More
Super cozy and great quiet location to serve as our base for a week as we explored Acadia and the Bar Harbor area. Dave & Anna were very gracious, friendly, and helpful. The apartment was just like home and we were sorry we had to leave. Highly recommended! This was our first time vrbo-ing somewhere that we didn't personally know the owners, but any fears we may have had were certainly unwarranted.

Perfect Stay!
Perfect stay and perfect host. From the first-time unlocking to the last day locking up our stay was very welcoming, quiet, relaxing and provided everything we needed. The bed was very comfortable. Another bonus, David provided wood for campfires on the beach which made for amazing times at sunsets. Just down the road are great restaurants too. This rental will be our first choice if we ever return to Bar Harbor.

Highly Recommend
We highly recommend this property. Very cozy on the inside and out. The king-sized bed is very comfortable, there are cozy spaces for sitting inside and out, a fully equipped kitchen, nice bathroom, and very clean throughout. Dave was very kind and offered us the use of two bikes and there were two bag chairs in the closet. This is a great location for visiting Acadia National Park, including Schoodic Peninsula, which I highly recommend. I would definitely stay here again!

Terrific Location and Fantastic Hosts
From our initial booking, Dave and Anna made us feel welcome! The apartment is located on a quiet road that leads down to Hadley’s Point where campfires are permitted, and a kayaking company launches multiple adventures throughout the day (highly recommend!). Amazing sunsets! It is the perfect location for daily adventures into Acadia and Bar Harbor. Dave and Anna provided thoughtful touches for our stay that made our return to Acadia memorable!!

Truly Excellent
This was one of the best extended accommodation stays we have had anywhere in the world. It was genuinely flawless. The accommodation is two floors separated from the (charming) owners' home by the laundry room. But it looks out into the garden and beyond to the woods giving the sense that you are enjoying a secluded woodland stay. We were greeted by three deer in the garden on our arrival and saw a mother and fawn on the eve of our departure. On arrival Dave gives a comprehensive welcome and throughout our stay he and Annie responded immediately to any requests we had, and indeed discreetly checked if we needed anything more. The split level accommodation gives two living spaces if one needs to work. The kitchen is well- equipped and the washer and dryer are big and effective. The shower and TV both function just as you would wish. The heating/air conditioning was very effective. The front door operates on an easy electronic keypad so there is no need to worry about remembering keys. The bed is one of the most comfortable super-kings we have experienced - and we have literally been in tousands worldwide! From the accommodation you can walk down to the beach in five minutes - we witnessed wonderful sunsets and beautiful starlit nights there. It is a ten minute drive to Acadia National Park and fifteen to Bar Harbor with all that has to offer (we recommend the Thirsty Whale). If you really need a Walmart there is one twenty minutes away in Ellsworth. Six stars!! We'll be back!

Perfect getaway
We had such a wonderful stay. The property was lovely and exactly as pictured/described, super clean, a great location, and a short walk to a beach for the most beautiful sunsets. The host is outstanding—kind, helpful, and great with communication. The area is quite beautiful, even in the off season. We cannot recommend this property enough! If/when we return one day to Maine, this would be our first choice of where to stay.
