Our stay was great at the lake house. Clean, quiet, relaxing. The description is a bit misleading, though. The house is not lakeside like it states. You have to travel down a hill and across a street in order to get to the lake. Other than that, highly recommend staying here.
It had a beautiful view, the amenities were great, and the porch was FANTASTIC!! Great secluded little cabin close to Bar Harbor, Acadia National Park, and in Ellsworth.
We really enjoyed the peace and serenity of the location, and the view of the lake.
Cozy and comfortable! Loved the screened in porch! Kitchen is stocked. The only item is you have to walk down the hill and across the road, down the steps to get to the dock.
Good access to Ellsworth and Arcadia
We had a spectacular stay at the cabin. Location was excellent with the lake across the road and Ellsworth less than a mile away for all your needs and wants. The house was clean, spacious and well stocked. We couldn’t get the stove on but thankfully we only had one chilly night so not a big deal. It’s an ideal launching point for anything in or around MDI and Bar Harbor.
The whole process was so easy, the Lake House was spacious and so comfortable. Easy to find and we absolutely loved being able to swim.
Beautiful property, peaceful and close to Acadia!
My husband, son and I stayed here on our family vacation to Bar Harbor. Cute and secluded cottage in the woods with views of Leonard Lake. Far enough away from the hustle and bustle of Bar Harbor but close enough to visit the Harbor and Acadia. We really enjoyed it and will recommend it to our friends! Super cute!!
This property is cozy and peaceful. The pictures do not do justice to how nice the interior is. The outside is fairly private and peaceful. It should be noted that although you can see the lake from this property, one must walk down the driveway and across a one-lane road to reach the lake and dock. The walk back to the house is a decent incline all the way back to the home. Overall we very much enjoyed the atmosphere and home.
We were very pleased with our stay at the lake house. We had many amenities provided to us. It is in great location if you want to visit Bar Harbor and Bangor, just wish they would fix the road(lol). We will definitely come back when we visit Maine again. I recommend this place to anyone who visit”s this area.
This was the perfect house for our family of three. We walked in to the house, and it was spotless, cozy and nicely decorated. My favorite part was the huge window in the living room. The lake was right across the street and down a hill. Ellsworth is a very cute little town with everything you will need. We spent most of our time in Bar Harbor and Acadia which was about 35 minute drive. Make sure to try the blueberry soda.
Property was very clean. Good location near Acadia National Park.
The house was great. Very private, which is what we like. They had everything there you could want, (except spices) for cooking. All utensils, pots, pans, everything! Beds were comfortable and plenty of blankets, pillows, and towels for the bath and kitchen! We would stay there again in the future.
The cottage was exactly like the photos and had plenty of room for 4. Could have slept up to 6. Cleanliness was top notch.
What a wonderful location and home! We had the most relaxing vacation! The home is close to everything, yet so quiet. We so enjoyed using the candy e and exploring the lake. Highly recommend.
Well appointed house in a great central location. House was clean, cozy, and perfect distance from anywhere we wanted to be. Fire pit, canoe, porch, dock on the lake. What else do you need in Maine in Autumn!? Kitchen was well stocked- small toiletries in the restrooms. No complaints at all. Thanks for having us! We will be back.
We absolutely loved this little cabin. It was spotless and decorated so cute. There was an amazing amount of storage, so clothes and luggage were all put away. It was too cool while we were there to swim, but we enjoyed the view of the lake. We will definitely stay here again.
