Your spacious suite includes kitchen, living area, WiFi, cable/dvd, AC. Amenities, from wine glasses to picnic baskets, enhance your visit.
Stroll the historic waterfront to shopping, boating, hiking and great dining. At low tide you can walk across 'the bar' to the top of Bar Island, which is in Acadia National Park. From Bar Island you will see the bay, village and mountains. You will even see your suite.
The waterview suite truly offers what we call 'B&B hospitality with hotel privacy'.
Bar Harbor is a pedestrian's dream. You can actually park your car in your designated spot and never have to drive: walk to grocery store, natural foods store, Sunday farmer's market, boating activities, museums, restaurants and galleries.
Day hikes for all abilities are offered. You can kayak with Registered Maine Guides or enjoy some of the county's best Whale Watching. 50 miles of car free bicycles trails are available for your enjoyment. Meet the artists at fine art and craft galleries. Dine in numerous fine restaurants or on your own private waterview deck.
While we book mostly to couples this unit is suitable for bringing along a child or another family member. There is a separate king bedroom plus a futon in the living room area.
We had a wonderful stay in Sherry and Ivan’s cottage in Bar Harbor. Location was unbeatable! Sherry was very helpful and informative during our entire stay. We loved having a kitchen and a designated parking spot in the downtown area. The cottage also had plenty of helpful extras such as umbrellas, to go coffee mugs and a space heater for our thin Florida blood in the cold!
Everything you need for your stay. Perfect to walk to anything in downtown Bar Harbor and not have to move your car from its reserved spot, an absolute must when staying in town. Short drive to park entrances. Sherry and Ivan are attentive but not intrusive and kept us up to date on any changes due to covid. Can't wait to return!
The apartment is in a perfect location or, central to everything in Bar Harbor. Communication with our host was great before and during. Apartment is ideal for two people or couples traveling with one child. They gave us a wonderful place to relaxin between all of our hiking and lobster feasts.
This was our second year at this wonderful location and we were not disappointed! The cottage is equipped with everything you need and we love the balcony overlooking busy West street. It was easy walking access to shops and restaurants and we like having our own designated parking spot! The new coffee shop below us was a great new perk which we enjoyed almost daily. Sherry and Ivan are exceptional hosts - making sure we have everything we need! We look forward to returning again in June 2022!!
This was the first time that my husband and I had visited Bar Harbor and it was a wonderful experience! Sherry was very helpful in giving advice about the area - restaurants / things to do etc. Our rental was in the town of Bar Harbor, within walking distance to restaurants, shops as well as a very short driving distance to Acadia Park where we hiked daily. Our rental had a balcony that had a great view - we would sit out there most mornings and evenings. Also, there was an assigned parking space which was KEY in downtown Bar Harbor! The kitchen area was small but had everything we needed for eating in some nights.... We will definitely be back!
The view off the balcony might be better than actually shown! We spent every afternoon sitting out and watching. It’s right in the heart of down town and an easy walk to several restaurants and shops! We will for sure be back
Location location location :-) Alone Moose is really a perfect location. The porch over looks West St and has a wonderful view of the harbor. Sherry and Ivan were perfect hosts. Sherry forwarded so much useful information about the area and things to do. Excellent communication with her! We stayed busy the whole week, even though we had some rain. Good thing Sherry had umbrellas in the closet ;). We had a lovely stay.
Although have to give some credit to the weather, the location and comfort of our stay were excellent. We especially loved the ability to sit on balcony and watch the view. Loved the recliners when inside. Bed is very comfortable too. Location was great to browse the neighborhood and so much to do in Acadia and surroundings. Our host was available and had great suggestions. Definitely recommend.
So glad to have parking spot & being within walking distance from shopping & dining!
The Alone Moose Suite was the best location in Bar Harbor. Views of the harbor from our balcony were amazing. The suite was super clean and spacious. It was beautifully decorated with artwork from local artists, including the hosts, Sherry and Ivan. Preparing meals was a breeze because the kitchen was well equipped. Ivan and Sherry were excellent hosts, friendly and very helpful.
