Place was in the BEST location- we walked everywhere. Beal’s Lobster Pound was our favorite restaurant. We loved having coffee on the deck & watching the boats in the harbor. The neighbors were so kind, lots of wildlife (deer in the front yard!) The perfect getaway after hiking in Acadia everyday!

Communication with the host company was fantastic. Better than I’ve ever used. Check in was very easy. The owner was next door and lovely. The kitchen is well stocked and very practical for cooking. It’s an easy walk to the heart of Southwest Harbor.The only problem was the sofa bed. The mechanism is worn and uncomfortable. I slept with the couch closed with our exercise pad on it.

Acadia trip

We were told the house was 18 minutes to blackwood's campground where our family was camping. It was 30-35 depending on traffic. A little disappointing. We tried to use the grill and could not find the electric cord or where we could plug it in. I texted and no one replied. I asked the home owner and she couldn't find it either. Just letting you know to fix for next renter.
