'Harbor Boat House' overlooking Southwest Harbor

This was a wonderful property near Acadia National Park for our family vacation with five adults. Spacious, with all the essentials, quiet neighborhood, wonderful balcony with a view of the harbor, comfortable beds, handy washer and dryer, etc. Couldn't have asked for more. Thank you!

Our family had a great stay at this cool VRBO. There were 5 of us and we had plenty of space and really enjoyed it. It had everything we needed to eat in and relax and was an easy drive everywhere we wanted to go. It was super convenient to Acadia and our hosts gave great local selections. We would highly recommend it to any family.

We had a great stay on the quieter side of the island! The neighborhood was lovely and the house was perfect distance between Beal's and the town. Everything was clean and the host was friendly.

This was our second stay at Harbor House and we loved it again. Spacious and comfortable, we had everything we needed for a fun-filled vacation. Kathleen is always available to help. The town is a short walk for ice cream or to catch the free shuttle that runs to Bar Harbor. The balcony is a peaceful retreat to read or relax at the end of the day. My grandkids are looking forward to returning next summer!

We had a wonderful time staying here. We had 4 adults and 2 kids and the rooms worked out perfectly. We were happy to see the bedroom blinds had been updated from the pictures to blackout shades. Everything was great.

My family of 6 had a great visit to Acadia National Park and the surrounding Mount Desert island. The Harbor Boat house was a perfect place for our family to stay while exploring the island. It fit our family comfortably and was walking distance to Southwest Harbor with its restaurants, cafes and shops. The apartment was clean and had a spacious living room kitchen area for my kids to relax after a day of hiking or boating.

Fantastic place!

Our stay at Harbor Boat House got our vacation off to a great start. Situated in a quiet neighborhood, directly across from a pier with wonderful views and in easy walking distance to town, as well as a ferry departure point, the garage apartment was comfortable, well stocked, and clean. Our hosts were pleasant and available with information about the area but not in our businessduring our stay. Definitely recommend.

We visit MDI annually but first time staying in SW Harbor. The location of this rental was amazing, and open up opportunity in walking distance that we loved. The space was perfect for me and my two teens. Look forward to returning.

We enjoyed our weeklong stay here with our not-quite-2-year-old, who loved the view from the balcony. We spent most of our time outdoors in Acadia, a short drive away which made it easy to return for the kiddo’s midday naps. There was an initial hiccup with wifi service, but the owner was responsive and replaced the router which worked well for the remainder of our stay. The listing did not mention that there is in fact air conditioning, which we were grateful for on the warmer days. Would return!
