We had a great time staying at "acadia escape"! It was the perfect place to come home to after a day of hiking. My husband and I worked remotely and we both had plenty of space for our laptops and monitors. The location is SO convenient to the main streets of Bar Harbor but it's also in a quiet residential road -- the perfect combination! We couldn't be happier with our time there.

We stayed a week-our second visit The owners were there to welcome us and to let us know that they or their representatives would be available for questions or problems The house is commodious and has too many thoughtful and considerate features for me to list Thoroughly clean-beyond any vacation house that we have rented. Plenty of parking, so you are able to walk everywhere in town. Hard wood floors, An excellent kitchen, gas grill, outdoor or indoor seating

Acadia Escape is a beautiful older home located within walking distance of the downtown shops and restaurants. We were glad to have off-street parking available, as parking in Bar Harbor can be a challenge. Augie and Maryellen were wonderful hosts, checking in with us shortly after our arrival. We enjoyed our stay and would definitely choose Acadia Escape again in the future!

Really nice stay. Perfect location smack dab in the middle of town. It definitely has a vacation cottage feel. Older, but charming and kept up nicely. Lots of space for everyone, and a really nice big backyard with off street parking. Highly recommend!

We had a wonderful time at Maryellen and Augusta’s home. It was a great location and we could walk everywhere in town. We were also very close to Acadia National Park, which was amazing. They were wonderful hosts and I most definitely will stay here again. I can’t wait to come back.

We had a wonderful time at Acadia Escape. The best part was the location to town. We walked everywhere and utilized the island explorer throughout most of our stay to get into the park. The house is pretty simple and basic, but we weren’t there most of the time-we were out exploring the island.

Came back for second stay at house with 4 adults and two teens. Fantastic location to walk to town and still be on quiet street. House is just as advertised. Easy access to Acadia which is amazing at every turn.
