Elegant, spacious 5 bedroom home on Molasses Pond

Very nice place to stay with plenty to enjoy. It is somewhat off the beaten path and is a very quiet setting. The drive to Bar Harbor is a little way away but part of the adventure of being in Maine. Enjoyed our stay here very much and would be happy to stay here again in the future!

Perfect house, great location. Have stayed the several times and each stay has been perfect

The property was exactly as listed on one hand and on the other it exceeded our expectations by leaps and bounds! It was a perfect getaway!

This vacation was the best one we have had. The house was beautiful and offered great entertainment. We all found a love for kayaking on the lake. Playing pool and ping pong was so much fun. The beautiful crystal clear lake was a great place to swim. We didn’t want to leave. The yard was like a fairy garden, so enchanting to look at. It truly was a wonderful place to stay.

This was our second time staying at the Calling Loon. We love it there! We enjoy the peacefulness and solitude of the property and all the amenities that it has to offer. The sunsets from the dock in the evenings are beautiful. The home was well stocked and very clean when we arrived. Hoping to return again next year!

Great property. As described. The lake was beautiful!

We absolutely loved our stay on Molasses Pond. It was 4 adults and 4 teenagers. We had several days that we ventured into Acadia NP and Bar Harbor, and several days lounging around the pond house. The home had everything listed and previous guests may have also left some items we used. We actually left a wiffle ball set for future guests. It had plenty of comfort and we didnt really lack for anything. I would suggest maybe having some more throw blankets for the living room to cuddle up with. Otherwise, the internet and TV worked great, the teenagers loved the ping pong and pool tables. We swam and paddled in the pond and truly enjoyed the home. We highly recommend this property! The property managers and owners were wonderful. We only had to contact them one time because we lost power for a couple hours, but used it as an opportunity to go get some dinner out in Ellsworth. Power was restored within 3 hours. We enjoyed the local lumberjack show, hiking in Acadia NP and shopping in Bar Harbor. We did do the whale watching tour and while we saw two whales, I am not sure we would do it again. It is quite pricey and unless you are able to see alot of whales, dolphins etc, it wasnt worth the money. At least for us, to each their own. That has nothing to do with this property, but did want to leave it for future vacationers. If you stay here, you will truly enjoy yourself. It has solitude, but also gives you a relatively short drive to more urban amenities. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!

We had a wonderful week at the Calling Loon! Our family group consisted of 5 adults and 2 dogs. Upon arriving at the house, my husband's first remark was call them right now and ask them if they want to sell. Lol! He absolutely loved it. The house was very clean and had everything we needed for the week. The landscaping was beautiful. We loved watching the sunset and the baby loons from the dock. My son and I took one of the canoes out and had a blast together. We also enjoyed the pool table and ping pong table. My kids and dogs swam in the pond which was surprisingly clean. The house is located in a very secluded area which we loved but if you are planning to do the touristy things, keep in mind that it is at least a 30 minute trek to get anywhere. The last mile of the road to the house is dirt/gravel and you really have to watch for rocks sticking up. (We drove a Cadillac sedan and scraped the bottom a few times but my parents had an SUV and were fine).The hosts, Eric and Shawna were very pleasnt and responsive. We would definitely stay here again. 10/10 for sure! (ps the mosquitos are relentless so bring lots of bug spray!)

Great house, well stocked, very spacious and accommodating. A gem, right on a large lake/pond, in the middle of the woods. Stayed with family and dogs during a balmy October week and pretty much had the entire lake to ourselves to kayak on all week. Had several Loon sightings and spotted a Bald Eagle over by the island on the Pond. If you're good with a little unpaved road driving and follow the directions given to you by the owners, you're going to be very happy with your stay. About a 1/2 an hour to Ellsworth for supplies and less then an hour to the lobster shacks in Trenton and on to Acadia National Park.

We had a lovely stay at Molasses Pond. The house was exactly as expected/hoped for. Nice bedding, nice comfortable furniture. In good repair. No complaints!! We would absolutely book again.

Our large family rented 3 different homes on Molasses Pond. This home was by far the best. It was spacious, clean, well maintained and had a beautiful view from the living area. The outdoor area was perfect for swimming, fishing, kayaking and having an evening campfire. I would recommend this home to family and friends.
