Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities, communication
We really enjoyed staying at this spacious property. It was in a great location away from the high traffic areas of the National Park but close enough to be where ever you wanted quickly. The property completely met our needs for our trip to Maine for a week. We had everything we needed and a grocery within walking distance.
Great apartment very close to restaurants and a short drive to Acadia. Great to be so close but away from the crowds in Bar Harbor. We had everything we needed, and excellent communication with our host.
Great property, wonderful hosts. Clean, cozy, and just a short distance from groceries, shops, lighthouses, & restaurants in Southwest Harbor. With easy access to Acadia and an easy drive to Bar Harbor, the peace and quiet found here is perfect...away from the chaos of Bar Harbor. Rent a bike in town and you have all you need.
We enjoyed our stay here very much. It was nicer and much larger than expected from the pictures. Everything was clean, comfortable bed, large living room with multiple sofas, well appointed large kitchen and dining area. It is less than a mile from Southwest Harbor and easy access to Acadia. I would definitely stay here for future visits to Acadia area.
We really enjoyed our stay. The apartment was spacious and comfortable. The bed and bedding were great! Place was very clean. Close to a small grocery store and coffee shop. You could hear traffic from the main road but otherwise it was quite. I'd stay here again if we every come back.
The Vrbo was very clean, spacious, comfortable and in a quiet spot.The kitchen was well supplied with kitchen wares and found whatever was needed for cooking. Highly recommend Acadia national park and walking around Bar Harbor. Acadia has so much to do it's hard to do everything in one trip.
A gem of a find! It was well appointed in the kitchen, very clean, comfortable beds, lots of towels, plenty of space for 2. I appreciated the hosts' welcome email with ideas of places to explore and restaurants to try. There was even a basket with maps and more information. It's far enough away from the bustle of Bar Harbor yet easy enough to get to aspects of Acadia National Park quickly.
Great location, clean and had everything we needed. Power outage happened, but the owner had a generator and didn't miss a beat! He kept us informed of progress of the work being done by the town until power was restored. Close to trails and some really great restaurants. Very pleased
This was a very convenient location for accessing Acadia National Park and it was a very comfortable place to stay. There were plenty of cooking utensils in the kitchen. There was a minor amount of traffic noise. The line of site for leaving the property could be improved if the neighbor trimmed their tree.
On the quieter stay of the island so depends on what you are looking for. Was easy to get around the island to see different places and get to Acadia National Park. In our unit there were a couple of beach chairs and beach towels which were nice to have and we took them to Echo Lake Beach very close by and much less busy than Sand Lake. Asked a couple questions of the owner and he was very responsive. Place was very clean and well stocked. We would recommmend staying here without question!
This is an exceptionally comfortable rental, close enough to Acadia N.P. and Bar Harbor but just far enough away as to provide some relief from the crowds. The apartment had all the home-away-from-home necessities, including a fully stocked kitchen, separate dining area, very comfortable bedding, cozy living room area with a large TV, etc. The unit was immaculately clean upon my arrival and everything was in good working order. Tim is an outstanding host and was highly communicative with clearly articulated check-in info, house details and area recommendations. I would recommend this property without hesitation for any travelers seeking a one-bedroom accommodation. Hope to return in the future!
Decent place to stay as long as the noise from the busy road in front of the place does not bother you. The unit had everything we needed with the exception of ice trays. That’s so minor but I like ice in my water bottle when I’m packing up to go and is an easy fix. Pillows, bed, sofas and blankets were all comfortable which is the most important part! Owner was friendly and welcoming.
The location is convenient to Southwest Harbor and Acadia, though you cannot easily walk to town. The house is on the main highway, so you are near but require a car. The unit is on the second floor, spacious and comfortable. The only downside is, again, the proximity to the highway. Open windows don't work due to the noise.
The owner is extremely accommodating.
We had a lovely stay in this spacious (at least for a New Yorker) and comfortable second floor unit. There was a full kitchen, dining room, and even separate living room with couches, in addition to the bedroom and bathroom. As vegans it was great to be able to use a well-appointed kitchen to prepare some simple meals after our long hikes. There were a lot of nice touches that we wouldn't see in corporate rentals, from the wide assortment of crockery to plenty of extra hangers in the closet. And of course the location is great: away from the hustle and bustle but no more than a 30 min drive to anywhere in the park. It's also one of the cleanest vacation rentals I've ever been in. Thanks to the Clements' and cheers!
Place was very spacious for two people. Clean and sufficiently appointed for us. Had to set up a fan to get the cool air from the A/C to the bedroom, but not a big deal for us. Don't understand why they don't put a sofa bed in the living room and allow more people to stay, such as a teenager who doesn't care where they sleep. Folks downstairs in unit 1 said our footsteps made a lot of noise, but we were just walking normally in socks. I think the engineered flooring needs some sound deadening below it.
Lovely accommodations! Super clean and very spacious. Very nicely decorated. Quiet and located just outside of the quaint small town of Southwest Harbor. Close to Acadia and Bar Harbor. Would definitely stay here again.
