Bar Harbor, Maine
HOBO Retreat-#434334 (beautifully-decorated, well-stocked, and well-maintained weekly-rental property) – comfortably sleeps up to 8
This gorgeous, 2-story 1874 home is a perfect place to vacation, as it is strategically-located on the Island, has a large kitchen/dining area that is well-stocked, has a large yard, a wonderful back patio and also a special “picnic area” with 2 picnic tables next to the home. HOBO Retreat has 4 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, a convenient laundry room, and is well-decorated with a coastal theme throughout. We even made a special bedroom/bath with a Pirate Theme for the children! (We are child-friendly and have available 2 toddler stair gates, as well as a Pac N’Play and sturdy highchair, if needed. We apologize, but we cannot take animals, as some renters are allergic and we must respect them also.)
Our “Retreat” is located 3 miles onto Mt. Desert Island, is 4 miles to Acadia National Park entrance/Visitor Center, and is a quick 10- minute drive to reach downtown Bar Harbor (where there is shopping, eating, excursions of all kinds, Shore Path with its historic homes and plaques to provide information about the area). Our home is also readily accessible to any of the 5 Harbors located on this island, each harbor with its own “flavor” and atmosphere.
Available in HOBO Retreat, we have put together two special handouts for our guests: “Suggested Things to Do/Experience” on/off the Island, and “Recommended Eats” on/off the Island.
Please view our photographs in this listing, as they contain pictures of this property, and a variety of photos suggesting things available to experience in this beautiful area! We hope you thoroughly enjoy your time on Mt. Desert Island, as it is very special, is a place to cherish and make wonderful memories with those you enjoy and love!
(NOTE: If this rental is unavailable during your requested time frame, please check out our “HOBO Chalet-#999493”, a newly-constructed and beautiful home that also sleeps 8 comfortably. It is located toward the back of this property by the peaceful woods, insuring your privacy, and has also been loved by all who stay there!)
Had a great time! Place was very nice. Close to everything. Communication with owner was great as well. Definitely would stay here again.
Great property! Loved Bar Harbor and would definitely come back.
Lovely home with plenty of space located just minutes from Acadia National park and downtown Bar Harbor.
Former neighbors met at the Hobo Retreat for 6 days of exploring Bar Harbor and lobster eating. The kitchen is completely equipped, the 2 bathrooms gave each couple privacy and the back porch was a great place to relax.
We rented both houses on hobo lane for a family reunion. Both houses were beautiful and well kept and stocked. We enjoyed making s’mores around the fire pit! The houses are located so that everything is just a short drive away. Thank you to Heather and Bob for hosting us on our first trip to Maine!
Everything was perfect. Cottage was located in the perfect spot. It was clean and had a neat layout with nautical decor. I loved the raspberries around the house!
We can’t say enough about how great our stay here was! The house was lovely and close to everything ! Very relaxing! We would love to stay again! :)
This home was very clean and very close to Acadia. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay.
When we walked we were just amazed at how beautiful and clean this home is. Everything that we needed was at our fingertips, and it is beyond me how anyone can have a whole house set up so perfectly. Beautifully decorated, comfortable and felt like home. The kitchen has plenty of room to cook, and the table is large enough for 6 adults and 2 young children to spend time eating and playing games. Bedrooms were comfortable and bathrooms had everything you might forget at home. I guess the only thing I’d say, and not being negative, is that with 6 adults and a 4 yr old, someone was always in the bathroom when it was needed by this 4 yr old. Good thing a potty was brought by parents. Close to Acadia, Bar Harbor and anywhere else you’d want to go. Perfect. Thanks for the perfect vacation home for our family!
My family of kids and grandkids had a wonderful week at Hobo Retreat near Bar Harbor. The house was immaculately clean with great appliances and decor. Thank you for the air conditioner. When we arrived it was in the mid 90’s…can you believe that for Mt Desert Island. Main floor was very comfortable and upstairs bedrooms warm but ok for sleeping. Thank you Bob for allowing us to stay and relax in your fine house Ken Cobb
