However, if there is anything you need or of concern during your stay with us, we can be easily contacted.

Settled just 3 miles from the northeast entrance to Acadia, and roughly 10 minutes from downtown Bah Habah (make sure you leave your Rs at home when you get here), our cottages provide you with the convenience to tackle everything you need to while you`re here (well not literally – there’s actually a no tackling policy. Thanks, Joe…).

Check out our Welcome Guide for info and recommendations on the area!

-Being near a Pond there are may bugs and moths especially at night time. Guests need to be cautious of coming and going from the sliding door at night time as bugs are attracted to the light

-There are 4 steps to get to the front door

-Grills are available for use late April until the end of November

-Firewood is NOT provided. Many of our neighbors sell firewood at the end of their driveways for $4-$8 per bundle paired with a small cash box

You will receive a $150 fee if you are out of the unit later than 10:15AM and will be charged an additional $50 for every 15minute interval that you are late after that. We have had problems with guests leaving late in the past and need to make sure that our cleaning team has enough time to properly clean the unit before the next guests arrive.

    Spacious house for a couple (and a dog) in close proximity to Bar Harbor and Acadia NP. Nicely updated, clean, and well stocked with all the basics! Owner was great to communicate with. Proximity to Route 3 made it a bit noisy.

    The host was very interactive and tried to help us as much as possible but there was no hot water or pressure in the shower. No laundry soap or dryer sheets for laundry. Other than that everything else seemed to be fine.

    Yes The Nook was a magical experience. Accommodating with all the kitchen and bath essentials.

    Perfect little spot for my dog and me! Cozy, quiet, close to Acadia and Bar Harbor yet far enough away that we weren’t in the hustle and bustle of other summer visitors.

    Had a great stay at the nook! Prime location, 10 minutes to Bar Harbor and Acadia. Very clean and well stocked kitchen. It has a nice outdoor space that our pup was able to run around in. The only downside was a busy road nearby that made it seem a little less secluded, but we would stay there again

    The sofa/couch is really gross, probably from dogs lying on it. It needs either a new cover of a very thorough cleaning.

    We had a comfortable, quiet stay at the nook. It was what my wife and our dog needed, just far enough away from the bustle of the main town but close enough to hop in and out as we pleased. The place is cozy and comfortable, and check in and out process was smooth and easy. Would stay again ?

    Overall, this was a good place to stay if you wanting a quick and easy place while visiting Bar Harbor and Acadia. Would recommend painting lines for parking spots. There were many times it was a tight squeeze to fit in the allotted parking spot due to others.

    We were looking for a perfect location, close to all the typical hikes and also near the city. The Nook provided that and much more. We were about 15 minutes from town, the loop road and Cadillac Mt Summit road. We were not at the house much, but it was such a cute well laid out place. A great little deck to sit out on and enjoy the meteor showers also. The only complaint we did have was the bed was so noisy, every time you tried to roll over the thing squeaked up a storm lol. But from all the hiking we were able to sleep anyways. Highly recommend staying here!!

    The Nook is a lovely little apartment and the pictures on VRBO depict it accurately! Great location/proximity to Hulls Cove Park entrance and downtown Bar Harbor. Quiet, clean, nice deck and fire ring. The shower is small as described by others. Otherwise the space is perfect for 2 people. I recommend this property!

    It was located in the perfect area to be out of the busy town, but yet really close to everything.
