We had a great time staying at Rich and Julie’s place. The design and layout is so thoughtful and in a perfect spot to enjoy the harbor. There is an entrance to Acadia about 5 min away and it leads you to the more quite side of the park which was wonderful. Rich and Julie provide a full list of things to do, places to eat, and everything you could possibly need to know to plan your trip. We would stay at their place again.

A charming, quiet property in an awesome location. We biked to Schoodic point from the house. We found nearby Tunk mountain a great hike! The house is uniquely decorated, the kitchen is fully stocked. Handy reference books help acquaint visitors with everything the area has to offer. Although we were completely comfortable during our stay, the set up may not be practical for all ages (spiral staircase and bathroom located downstairs from sleeping loft). Wish we could have stayed longer!

Cute little house away from the Bar Harbor mess. Host clearly loves the area and provides a wealth of useful information. House is immaculate and in like new condition. Very nicely decorated and well equipped. Only negative is the the two stair cases are steep and would not be a good choice for someone with limited mobility.

What a fantastic property. Peaceful part of Acadia, right on an estuary. Super clean, thoughtfully supplied, and beautifully curated design. I visited with my husband and adult son, and we were comfortably situated for almost 2 weeks. Nice low-key local eateries, plus a ton of great recommendations for things to see and do from our host!
