The house was a very nice home on a secluded road which made it all nice and quiet. This was a retirement gift trip for my parents. Overall everything was really nice. The only issue is the house has inadequate heat for the size and openness of the home. Though it was an issue the first couple nights the property managers were very nice and brought by space heaters to ensure my folks stayed warm through the chilly nights. They still enjoyed themselves and spent most of there time in Bar Harbor. They only other thing is the outside property could use some TLC which is probably why they are reluctant to show the outside. Some time spending mowing and trimming would really do the property some justice. The inside more than makes up for that. The property managers were extremely nice and very prompt on responses and communication as well as coming by to make sure the heat issue was taken care of. We would certainly recommend this property again just perhaps not as late in the year because of the temperatures.

This was a beautiful spot for our coastal Maine getaway, offering a large open concept home with unique architectural design, nestled next to the peaceful views and sounds of Hodgdon Pond and Acadia National Park. We enjoyed having the extra space to spread out inside the house. The upstairs bathroom was particularly luxurious - offering a large soaking tub which I enjoyed while listening to the sound of rain on the sky lights.The kitchen was well stocked with everything we needed. Some small suggestions for the future would be upgraded televisions, better lighting in the common areas, and nicer bed(s) in the downstairs bedroom. Otherwise, the home was equipped with what we needed to enjoy a relaxing stay. I took the kayak out during the trip and got to experience more of the pond. Although we didn’t use the fire pit area this time, we could imagine this being a pleasant way to spend a cool Maine evening outdoors. If the sky is clear, make sure to spend one night out on the boat dock soaking in the starry sky - with low light pollution we were even able to see the Milky Way! Although this place could benefit from a few upgrades and modernization, I would definitely recommend this location for a quiet getaway for anyone wishing to experience the tranquility of the island while being only a short drive from Acadia, Bar Harbor, and other nearby sights.

We had a great stay at this cabin. The pond was lovely, the cabin was spacious with a lot of special details, and we enjoyed staying on the quiet side of the island. It was very easy to get around the island from this location, and it was nestled in pretty nature.
4.0
The location was wonderful although a little hard to find. Communication with the owner was great. The lake is beautiful. The problem we had was that the second bedroom upstairs had nothing in it but a bed. No tables, no place to put clothes or suitcases. The closets had owners things in them so we couldn't use them. The icemaker didn't work so we had to but ice. The floor in the downstairs bathroom was quite dirty

Wouldn't hesitate to stay here again - on the quiet side of the island which is a fantastic place to be in July or August. Swimming is only steps from the house, we saw bald eagles flying by multiple times. House is large and spacious, airy- wonderful bathroom upstairs and wonderful views from Master bedroom. Perfect place for 2 people or 2 families.

Decent place. Will make sure to check whether or not future places have air conditioning as this one does not. Photos are a bit enhanced. Had to wash the sheets and pillowcases as it didn't seem these were clean upon arrival. Pillowcases have stains. Towels didn't smell clean. It was raining when we arrived which made the house very humid. Feet stuck to the floors, dishes stuck to the table probably due to years of using Murphy's Oil to clean with. Furniture is old and from the 80's, rips on leather furniture do not appear in the photos. You can tell the place probably sits closed up all winter. TV's are from the 80's. Curly black hairs on the floor in the bathroom. Doors close on their own upstairs, most likely from the airflow from the windows, but was creepy having doors slam shut when nobody was upstairs and in the middle of the night. Owner's clothes hanging in the closets. Overall, the location is great, we enjoyed the dock, kayak, fishing, and canoe but almost left after the first night. Probably a nice place for those used to staying at rustic lake houses in Maine. We are used to nicer accommodations for the rates paid for this one.
