    Great house to relax as a family and make day trips to Acadia and Bar Harbor . Plenty of space for a family to play and spread out . Right on the water so water lovers can kayak and return to make fire right on the banks of the Skillings River.

    Barb S from Burlington, NJ recommends this vacation rental

    We arrived in a downpour and had an issue with the digital lock. Called the manager, who immediately answered, and our issue was solved.
    Our dogs had a great time in the fenced yard. The sun porch is great, we had breakfast out there everyday! The kitchen is very well stocked. The only thing that would make it better would be a king size bed instead of a queen! Other than that, I would definitely recommend this property and we are actually thinking about renting it again next year!

    Natalia B from Schwenksville, PA recommends this vacation rental

    Charming , clean, equipped with everything that you might think of. Located on a shoreline. Unfortunately house itself is 55 minutes away from majority of trails in Acadia National Park
    We had a power outage in the last night of stay because of storm and management was rude over the phone, but it was 7am on Sunday, so not a big deal, she did sent a follow up message few minutes later apologizing.
    Overall happy with my stay anyway

    Ted M from Urbana, IL recommends this vacation rental

    A lovely home in a beautiful setting with flower garden, mature forest and lots of yard and deck. Homes nearby are far enough away it feels like you’re by yourself on Mt Desert Narrows. So interesting to see the tidal currents ebb and flow in the narrows. The kids loved the bunk beds, s’mores at the fire pit, horse shoes, sun room and enjoyed coming over each morning to wake up Grandma and Grandpa in the garage loft. Property manger was exceptional - very responsive; made check in / check out easy! A great place to stay in Maine near Acadia!
