Surrounded by tall trees, the space is reminiscent of dwelling in a luxurious tree house! Enjoy brilliant stars on a custom stargazing bench, relaxing on a walkout deck off the master bedroom, or sitting on the private covered front porch. The spectacular bathroom is the showcase featuring a one of a kind breathtaking tile creation. As you sit in the jacuzzi tub you will be swept away into a vision of Frenchman's bay featuring the elusive Orca whale. Not your average run of the mill vacation rental. Words can not describe what it has to offer.

Great getaway!
The very sweet and conscientious owners made our trip destination extremely comfortable, as they stocked the kitchen will all necessary appliances and equipment. The location of the rental is perfect for walking to the town of Bar Harbor, or driving to locations outside of town. Overall, would give this a 10 out of 10!

Excellent Bar Harbor Week
The three bedroom apartment was upstairs, private, and cool at night with cross breezes. The air conditioner was on when we arrived (a hot week), which was a nice touch, but we did not need it in the morning or evening or overnight. Just a few blocks from town, and a few miles from Acadia, the neighborhood is leafy and quiet. The owners (right downstairs) respected our privacy all week and were friendly when we met up two times in the backyard by the separate entrance. We hope to be back. It could not have been much better.

Great Location, Clean, and Comfortable
We loved our stay here. The location is excellent—10 minute walk to downtown Bar Harbor and 10 minute drive to Acadia National Park. The place was clean and comfortable and had a well stocked kitchen. The beds were comfortable, the decor was warm and inviting; there was three porches/balconies we had access to as well! We would definitely stay here again.

This VRBO was perfect for our stay in Bar Harbor! While a lot of stuff is closed in the winter, it was close to everything we wanted to do. The space was clean and a good size for our family of four. Would love to stay here again when we visit!

Wonderful place in a quiet neighborhood - away from the crowds in Bar Harbor, but close enough to walk to shops and restaurants. Everything was as advertised. Our only suggestion would be to add a grab bar in the bathroom tub.

Perfect spot in Bar Harbor.
This home is on a quiet street across from a wooded park. close walking distance to main street and all of the shops and restaurants. Spacious rooms and everything we needed was there. Hiking trails nearby that take you right into Acadia Park. Strong WIFI, cable t.v., full kitchen, plenty of hot water for back to back showers. 2 Out door seating areas (decks). Cant miss with this property.

Great, cozy home with everything a family needs
The home was very clean and cozy and we enjoyed having the park so close for our toddler to play. Easy walk to downtown/water front for coffees, food, shopping. Very responsive home owners. If anyone has mobility concerns, they should be aware the apartment is upstairs and climbing into the tub for a shower is a big step on tile, so take care. It was a great spot for us and I would stay here again.

Pre-season Acadia
Stayed in Acadia before season started. The property is conveniently located, comfortable, and a terrific place to enjoy Acadia NP and located on a quiet street with off-street parking which would be even more desirable during peak season. The kitchen is large with all of the conveniences of home, although there is plentiful dining in the area if you don't wish to cook. This was an ideal setting and location for a family trip.

Great Home & Hosts
Our family just stayed at the home for the second year in a row. It is super clean and well designed. The location is great-short drive to Acadia and very close to downtown Bar Harbor (you can walk or drive). The hosts are there if you need them but allow for plenty of privacy too. We love it and plan to come back again next year.

November in Bar Harbor
Long weekend in Bar Harbor. Property is cute and very convenient to downtown Bar Harbor and Acadia NP. Lots of little details in the space kept the kids intrigued. Plenty of supplies in the kitchen. We had 5 people taking showers and we never had an issue with hot water running out. Owner responded rapidly and was nice enough to suggest things to do. Enjoyed our stay and will definitely consider this property in the future! Thanks for a great (and much needed) retreat!
