A gas fireplace in the living room can take the chill off a Maine morning or evening. Bedrooms include a king-sized master with private bath, queen-sized bedroom, and abunk room which sleeps 4. There is a front porch and large rear deck off the kitchen. The home is tastefully decorated and well-appointed. The owners have young children and are happy to accommodate yours. Pets negotiable.

The first level open floor plan includes a tiled entryway, half bath, kitchen with breakfast bar and seating for 4, dining room with seating for 10, den/family room, and living room with a gas fireplace. There are three bedrooms upstairs, including a master bedroom with king bed, walk-in closet, and private bath. The master bath features a double granite vanity, tile shower and separate soaking tub. Also upstairs you will find a queen-sized bedroom and a large bunk-room with two sets of bunk beds to sleep four. Downstairs, the living room can accommodate two additional guests. Options include a queen-sized sofabed and a twin-sized pull-out chair-and-a-half. The home can accommodate a maximum of 10 people, but more comfortably 8. Mattresses and bed linens are all new. There is another full-sized bathroom in the upstairs hallway. Both upstairs bathrooms feature tile floors with radiant heat. The home has hardwood floors throughout, and the first floor also has radiant heat (a benefit for chilly spring and fall visits).

    We had a great stay at Maria’s house. She was quick to respond to any questions or concerns. The house is very cozy and warm. We also love the quietness of the location and only a half hour drive to Bar Harbor, about 20 minutes to Cadillac Mountain and 15 minutes to Bass Harbor Lighthouse.The kitchen is well stocked with almost everything you need to cook or grill. My 2 mini schnauzers love the yard and surrounding woods. It’s like staying in an enchanted forest with a harbor nearby. We will stay there again when we’re in the area. Highly recommended!

    This house was perfect for our family. My parents, my siblings, my wife, and my two toddlers loved the house. It is in a great location, a short drive to Acadia. The property is secluded and quiet, yet close enough to do quick day trips. The host provides an abundance of things for all ages. There are books, puzzles, toys, and games. My kids were always entertained. The host was very easy to work with and the description was best accurate. This house truly felt like a home away from home!

    Perfect Family Getaway in Beautiful Bass Harbor!We had the most amazing stay at this lovely home in Bass Harbor! We were two families traveling together, with kids ranging in age from 8 to 15, and this house could not have been more perfect for us.From the moment we arrived, we felt right at home. The house was immaculately clean, spacious, and incredibly comfortable. It had that perfect mix of cozy charm and modern convenience. Every room was thoughtfully furnished and inviting, with plenty of space for everyone to spread out, relax, and enjoy.The kitchen was fully stocked with everything we could possibly need! We cooked several meals at home and appreciated how easy and enjoyable it was to do so. The living areas were perfect for games, movie nights, and unwinding after long days exploring Acadia and the surrounding area.The location was ideal—quiet, peaceful, and just a short drive to all the sights and trails we wanted to explore. Coming back to this house after a day of adventure truly felt like coming home.We made wonderful memories here—morning coffees on the deck, shared dinners around the table, laughter echoing through the house—and we’re so grateful for the time we spent in this special place.Highly recommend to any families or groups looking for a comfortable, well-equipped, and welcoming home. We would absolutely stay here again! Thank you Maria!

    Gorgeous peaceful house! It felt like home. Everything we needed for our stay was available. We enjoyed the local art festival going on during our stay. I would highly recommend this house to anyone traveling to Maine.

    If you are going to the area you probably already know what a great place it is. We were very near hiking trails and great restaurants. We were two couples and it was very spacious. Great kitchen with large cooking area. All in all a great stay.
