Loved the property and local area
Everything went flawlessly. Beautiful views. Clean space. Well supplied.
We had a fantastic stay at this lovely house! It was delightfully off the grid but still had all of the amenities that you’d look for anywhere else. We really enjoyed kayaking in the ocean and gazing at the stars at night. It was a nice ~45 minute drive to Acadia and we would definitely stay here again!
My teenage sons loved exploring the bay in the kayaks. Seals were seen on every expedition. I enjoyed reading out on the deck. This was our base for our 4 days in Acadia. A little far, 45 minute drive, but the peacefulness and the views were worth it. 2 minor peeves were the inability to adjust the thermostat. It was in the off position and pin locked, so the only way to cool the house was to open the windows. The screen doors were extremely difficult to roll and made a screeching noise every time you went in the deck. Overall we enjoyed our stay.
We loved this location so much. The photos do not do it justice. The views are beautiful, the property is amazing, and the privacy was perfect. Even though it was about a 40 minute drive to Acadia, being able to escape the crowds of Bar Harbor made the drive worth it. We would stay here again in an instant! The bed was super comfortable, the kitchen was well stocked, and it was great to have a washer/dryer.
Great spot to explore Schoodic or Bar Harbor / Acadia. Lovely view of Bar Harbor / Cadillac and great layout. Perfect for one or two couples or family of 4. Kayaks were a wonderful addition. 50 min drive to Bar Harbor / 20 min to Schoodic, with a bunch of restaurants and stores in between in case if you need anything.
We couldn’t have asked for more in a vacation house. The home was clean and welcoming. It was well equipped and exactly as pictured and described. The setting was serene and the views were incredible. Highly recommend!
We had a wonderful stay in Sullivan, love it’s location as it is close enough to many areas we love, but still far enough away to provide peace and quiet. The guest house is very nice, clean and well equipped. We had a stretch of cool rainy weather while we were there, so we didn’t get to use the outside amenities, but did stay warm and comfortable inside.
I cannot say enough about how truly breathtaking this property is. The pictures do not do it any justice. We loved every second spent here - cooking, relaxing on the porch, exploring the waterfront, etc. It is about a 40 minute drive to Acadia from here, but we enjoyed being able to get away from the crowds to relax in complete peace after a long day. The kitchen is stocked. The main bed is extremely comfortable. Being able to have the porch doors open with screens was a huge bonus for us. We didn't get to use the kayaks but wish we could have - we just ran out of time. It was super nice to have the washer/dryer as well. Literally one of the best VRBOs we have ever stayed in - worth every penny. We hope to come back one day!!
We had a great stay. The house is tucked away right off a main road and is convenient to many places to visit. The home was clean and cozy. The property was beautiful.
This cottage/ house was immaculate, private, and the views were stunning!
This was by far the best rental I have ever stayed in. We started each day with hiking in Acadia and then enjoyed stopping at the roadside markets (highly recommend J&P) and ice cream shops on the drive back to Sullivan. Back at the house, we loved spending the afternoon kayaking, and we saw many birds and seals. Around dinnertime, we grilled and stargazed around the fire pit. Waking up to the gorgeous water and mountain views from the living room was the icing on the cake. Thanks for a fantastic stay!
Our family had a great time and enjoyed the beautiful view of the bay! I did try to contact the manager to ask about A/C but no one ever called back. Fortunately it cooled off the rest of the week and we were fine. Overall, it had everything needed and time went so fast we didn’t get to try kayaking, I would recommend this place!
Nice house. Two bedrooms. Big open concept living room/dining/kitchen. Nice porch overlooking the bay. Kayaking was great. We saw seals, porpoises and a bald Eagle.
This is our third time staying here, and everytime we do we have loads of fun. The location is beautiful-- rain or shine. You can see Acadia across the water. The updates to the location since our last visit were nice. Hope to stay again in the future.
