About this house rental
Nestled in Sullivan, this charming house for $245 per night is a great choice for your next vacation. Huge spring sale-No min stay. Cozy,comfy,off beaten path but very close to lots of things—15 min to Ellsworth, Acadia National Park starts at the top of the street and you’re surrounded-it’s all over (it encompasses Mt Desert Island, Bar Harbor & Winter Harbor). It’s about 20 min to Winter Harbor, Schoodic Point, Hancock Point, Lamoine, approx 20-25 min to Mt Desert Island & another 10 min from the beginning of the island- all depending on traffic- to Bar Harbor, Cadillac Mountain or the visitor center- so many cute places along the coast, tons of cute towns, art, antique shops along route 1... This is an old house, not a fancy house, but to me & most people a very cozy & magical house. I want to reiterate that this is our house, it is old, we LOVE it but it’s not perfect in every single way. If you’re looking for perfect please go to the the Ritz Carlton where you can expect perfection & demand a refund if you aren’t getting it. I’m not striving for perfection here, my goal is a cozy comfy peaceful escape from the world. The windows are old & I don’t want to update them for convenience, I love the old windows, etc. I have a few fans & now 2 new air conditioners to use if you wish but the house is not a brand new modern house with every modern convenience. For me it’s about nature, simplicity, peace & quiet. If that’s what you’re looking for then you have found it. However, the kitchen is fully stocked & very easy to cook in, there’s a microwave, toaster, blender, pretty much every device. There’s also Hulu, Netflix, Max PBS & Amazon Prime on both the upstairs & downstairs TVs. The kitchen & baths are updated & all appliances are new. Beds, bedding & furniture are new, clean & comfy. *PETS* i don’t particularly want dogs in the house -as the homeowner as it’s more wear an tear, BUT I understand that we love our pet children & want them with us on vacation. There is an additional pet fee because I like to keep the house extremely clean & it takes my housecleaner a couple of more hours to clean after dogs have come. A few people have snuck in dogs & then I need to spend extra hours & money on cleaning which is not fair. I’ll send you double the cleaning bill if you choose to sneak your dog in without registering them & paying the pet fee which helps pay the cleaning bill & is also necessary for the insurance policy if your dog happens to destroy something. Please reg your pet & pay in advance. 🙏🏻 Or lmk you’ll be leaving check or cash in the cash box if you wish to avoid Vrbo taxes and fees. You will be charged if you decide to steal cords from television, towels, bedding, kitchen equipment, batteries, laundry detergent, etc… Most people have been lovely but a few people think it’s OK to take whatever they want. Please don’t do that. This is my home & I’m trying to make it nice for you. Im renting it out so my kids & I have the opportunity to keep my great-grandmother‘s house in the family. Please be gentle & thoughtful & be a good person. Thanks for agreeing to these basic rules.

We had an enjoyable short stay at this lovingly cared for older home. The owner communicated easily, regularly and clearly with us through the VRBO app. The home was well equipped, and had everything we needed.
The home is relatively close to Bar Harbor (about 35 minutes by car) and to Acadia National Park (roughly 40 minutes). Dining and shopping near the home are somewhat limited, although we did find some places we liked a lot.
We enjoyed exploring the towns of Ellsworth (20 minutes) and Hancock (15 minutes), which were both quaint, un crowded, and thoroughly tourist-friendly.

This place was a dream from the moment we booked. Everything went extremely smooth and there were no hiccups along the way. The home is everything and more! Old farmhouse charm with modern amenities! This home is extremely clean, and the decor is wonderful. Plenty of beds for your family and a ton of board games to entertain everyone. Finish off the night with a bonfire and s’mores! The neighbors were friendly and kind and our host Holly was the best!

The location is not convenient, almost one hour drive to the National Park. There were some of spiders by the bed side. Floor is unstable and noisy especially in the living room. The house needs TLC.

Holly's house was very quaint and served our group well, with more than enough beds and common areas. We were able to commute easily to Acadia while there.

Our family spent a weekend in this lovely Franklin home for a family birthday party. The house and grounds are beautiful and the location is quiet - but convenient to all the beauty, hiking, kayaking etc.. offered in the Acadia area, Beds were comfortable, communication with Holly was spot on and everything was as advertised. Looking forward to our next stay at our new home away from home as our daughter, son-in-law and grandaughter also live in Franklin. Thank you Holly!!!
5.0
The house is quite charming and we really appreciated the fact that it was truly a "home" and not a generically furnished rental. Holly was very communicative and I found her description quite an accurate one. Apple maps takes you to the other end of the road, so don't be surprised if you have to drive a few extra miles to find the address! Enjoy!

This renovated classic was perfect for our two day trip to Acadia National Park. There was Duncan’s nearby for groceries and a sandwich, and located close to Ellsworth for restaurants . It was about 45 minutes to the park but what a beautiful relaxing drive! The mattresses and pillows were great and we all slept like babies after our hikes, sight and lobster feasting! Stay here- you’ll have a good time!

We loved staying at this home. It was spacious enough for our family of 7 and so comfortable and sweet! It was minutes from Tidal Falls which our family loved! We drove into Bar Harbor/Acadia several times and it was an easy drive. We loved our stay! Thank you for sharing your home with us!

Nice old house convenient to Acadia. Comfortable beds and clean place. The location is quiet and rural - a 20 minute drive to the nearest town. Be careful on the steep stairs.

I booked this property for our family of 7 while we visited Acadia. It was exactly as advertised. Clean, comfortable, and full of charm! We had everything we needed. Holly was very helpful with providing information about the area. I felt that it was a great location for exploring all the different parts of Acadia. If you are looking for comfortable home away from home, this is the place for you!

Maine Getaway
The house was charming. It had everything we needed. It was a good size for 4 adults and a toddler. The house is away from the busyness of the main tourist areas, which was peaceful and calm after sightseeing and such during the day. Holly was a great host, she communicated in a timely manner before our trip and during our stay. We only had one issue. The whole country was having a problem with a heat wave and so did Maine. There was a bit of an issue with the heaters on the first floor, but it got worked out. We were cool during the night, which is all that matters to me. I highly recommend this cottage for your Maine getaway!

Cute farmhouse
The property is just perfect! So much charm, lots of thought put into decorating, furniture arrangements and use of space. There were 6 of us, the youngest being 17 and there was more than enough space.
Holly was attentive to each email I sent before and during our stay (sorry for being a pest) and even got us in there a couple hours early.

Charming Farmhouse
I couldn’t be happier with my stay at this perfectly charming farmhouse. It slept 6 adults comfortably and had everything we needed and more. The decor was lovely. The house was close to Acadia and Barr Harbor so day trips were easy. We enjoyed this special property so much that we hope to come back.

Perfect Getaway for a Small Group
This was my second time using a rental property on a trip to Maine. Everything was exactly as described. We really enjoyed our stay. Nice comfortable farm house with all the amenities that you would need.
You can get to Bar Harbor in about 40 minutes and there are other nice quiet spots also within reach.
Highly recommended!

We really enjoyed our stay in Franklin. The house was great and with everything inside.
It's 30-40 min away from Acadia but perfect to rest after hiking.
Holly gave us a lot of information about groceries and restaurant around and was very reactive to answer our questions.

Beautiful old farmhouse in convenient location. Bedding was so comfortable and everything was clean! The home was so cute! Our only problem was the water. It had an odor and we didn't feel comfortable drinking it although it was probably safe. This home has everything you need and the owner was very responsive.

Yellow House
We really enjoyed our trip. We didn’t get to stay at the house very much because of so much time sightseeing! This house would be great for a family with kids. We had two couples and 2 single adults. One couple had to sleep in separate rooms. It wasn’t a big deal for us though.

Cozy retreat

This was the perfect location for our home base while exploring the beauty of the Acadia region. Holly was friendly and responsive. We would gladly stay here again. Thank you!

A wonderful place to return to each evening after exploring Acadia National Park. The dining room table is a great place to play games. We enjoyed the character of the home and how it is decorated. The beds were very comfortable and the kitchen had everything we needed. The house is updated and still retains its original character. Holly provided timely communication. She shared recommendations with us on things to experience in the area. Her suggestion of visiting Winter Harbor was something we all enjoyed.

My partner, son, and I came up for family wedding festivities nearby toward Franklin, which led us to this cottage…it was perfect for us! We loved the farmhouse feel, with a combination of traditional and new style touches throughout. We had everything we needed - plenty of space, very comfortable beds (and way more than we needed) and the all important second bathroom….and even laundry. The location was a blessing for the multiple wedding events nearby, but also as a launch point for the areas great attractions. Thanks Holly for sharing your awesome cottage!

This was a very quiet, cozy home that is off (but not far from) the beaten path. The home had a lot of character from the woodwork to the wavy glass windows...love it! A convenient location to jump off to Schoodic or MDI with some of the best coffee right up the road at Dunbar's. We would definitely stay here again ...and yes, there are wild turkey in the back yard.

Great little farmhouse, had everything we needed. Kitchen and bathrooms recently redone, nice washer/dryer, firepit out back. Wifi was great, streaming services on TVs. Five of the six beds are twins, master bedroom has an amazingly comfortable king. Nice towels provided, board games for the kids. It really had everything we needed and made us feel like our comfort was important!

I appreciated the updated kitchen and baths. The house was very thoroughly cleaned. Holly was super- helpful and easy to contact. It was about a 45 minute drive to Acadia/ Bar Harbor and about 30 to Schoodic. Thanks Holly for sharing your space with us.
