Bar Harbor, Maine
Five minutes from the entrance to Acadia National Park and eight minutes from downtown Bar Harbor, the Log Cabin is our beloved home, not a soulless vacation rental. We designed the house as a retreat where our friends and family could play, work, and relax together. It features three bedrooms, two full baths, a separate office, massive deck, and plenty of space to spread out.
The Log Cabin is fully outfitted for remote work. Enjoy the view of our red maples from your dedicated office with sit-stand desk, velvet reading chaise, external monitor, and laser printer—a perfect writer’s retreat. A second sit-stand desk in the gaming room allows for further ergonomic options. Two of the bedrooms include their own small desks, and a fifth desk in the daylight basement is ideal for those who need more soundproofing.
The large kitchen is fully stocked for serious cooking. The enormous deck with table, couch, chaise lounges, gas grill, and shade umbrellas is the perfect place for dining, relaxing, reading, or even working outdoors. Air-conditioning and a washer/dryer make the Log Cabin ideal for longer stays.
Enjoy our collection of board games and puzzles in the game room—from chess to Catan to Taboo. Pour over our hiking maps and guidebooks in the living room, then go conquer a mountain or two. Play croquet, frisbee, soccer, or football on the huge lawn. Get inspired by the photos of Acadia throughout the house, all taken by us or by local artists. Listen to the birds from the balcony off the master bedroom. Grab our pool noodles and beach towels and float in pristine Lakewood Pond, only five minutes away. Walk to Pirate’s Cove Minigolf or Mainely Meat BBQ. And when your day of fun (or work!) is finally over, curl up in front of our 75” TV in the finished basement and stream your favorite shows. Or, better yet, take the telescope onto the deck for stargazing. Either way, we hope you find the Log Cabin as perfect a retreat as we do.
Sorry, no kids under twelve.
Great place to stay. Clean, well equipped, and a great location near Acadia and the lively town of Bar Harbor. Easy to access, the owner Jason was prompt and responsive to a couple of questions and it was quite an enjoyable stay. Five stars.
1st vacation together since our son-in-law joined our family and it was a great house for us! Very well equipped, wonderful location, and loved having morning coffee on the deck. Our daughter loved the office for watercolor painting :)
Everything was as advertised. It was my first VRBO rental and it went smoothly. The log cabin was convenient to Acadia National Park and downtown Bar Harbor. I had a conference at the Bluenose Inn which was only 4 miles away.
Three couples stayed at this property for 5 days at the end of September, 2023. The kitchen was fully stocked and had everything you could want, as well as many other amenities. The layout was spread out, so everyone could enjoy their own space. The deck was wonderful to hang out. The beds were very comfortable. Didn't enjoy the downstairs shower, as it fluctuated too much, I'm assuming because of the pump. The location was close to Bar Harbor and all it has to offer. It is also very close to Acadia National Park, which we thoroughly enjoyed. Jason's communication is extremely efficient and he gives you amazing recommendations for the area. I wouldn't hesitate to stay here again.
Two retired couples had a very enjoyable stay. Property manager was responsive when we had an issue with the keypad lock.
Loved this property! Owner communications were great. We arrived at night in the rain but everything was just perfect. Exterior lights were on and other lights were motion activated to make it easier for us to access. Everything was very clean and very organized. The book the owner has put together to assist in all needs was the best I’ve seen. We will be back!
Beautiful property with all the amenities you could want. Fantastic binder with all the amenities listed alongside the locations in house, etc. Linens/towels were like new. Kitchen had a few staples stocked (coffee/tea bags!/a few condiments); excellent assortment of utensils- could use some sharper knives (or a knife sharpener). Close to Acadia’s Hull Cove visitor center/entrance, Bar Harbor, miniature golf, and restaurants. Would definitely choose this property again!
Everything about the log cabin was a great experience for us. The location is tucked away so as to provide a refuge from the bustle of downtown Bar Harbor. The house itself is a really well done mix of rustic feel with loads of modern technological amenities. The check-in/checkout processes was mooth and easy. The manager was very responsive. The handbook is filled with great recommendations for hikes and eats. We really didn't want to leave.
This place was great! Location coyldnt be better and the house itself was beautiful, clean and very comfortable. Our host had great recommendations for fun and food. We would stay there again in a heartbeat!
The log cabin is perfect for those who prefer to be close enough to the hustle and bustle but also want their peace and quiet. Just a few minutes to Acadia and downtown Bar Harbor. The house was gorgeous. The owners did a beautiful job upgrading the cabin and their binder was so helpful and full of suggestions on activities and places to eat. It was also convenient to have a washer and dryer after hiking so we didn’t have to go home with dirty laundry. After a day of exploring, it’s nice to come home to the cabin. My friends and I had a great time! This is my 3rd time visiting Maine and I already can’t wait to come back next year!
