Lakefront Home With Private Beach Close to Acadia National Park and Bar Harbor

beautiful place, of course I would come back, everything clean, and with a wonderful vibe, our 3 year old daughter loved it

It was a beautiful space to sit down and just relax.

Excellent house and location. Owner left the house with all kinds of things we needed like towels and cleaning materials. Highly recommended. Mike Modestino

Our family enjoyed our stay at the Sullivan home very much, the beach had an ocean vibe, with spectacular sunsets. The large deck provided us a perfect place to play games and have dinner. The fire pit is a nice touch, and the kitchen was outfitted with everything we needed. The layout of the house was wonderful, providing us with plenty of room for all of us. The bathrooms were clean and efficient. Plenty of towels, and the bedding that was provided was helpful. We kayaked to the nearby island and explored that a little. I would recommend this property to anyone wanting seclusion, we only saw one other person the whole time! Thank you

This property fit all nine of us comfortably (eight adults and one 1yr old). It was right on the lake and has a BEAUTIFUL view. Joshua was an excellent communicator and helped us streamline any bumps we may have experienced during our stay. However, there were a few things that we felt conflicted about. First, the lack of AC really hit due to a heat wave. It was noted in the listing, but it was nearly 90 in the house, so that was tough. Secondly, the house is a hike from Acadia and Bar Harbor. With normal tourist traffic, it was about an hour each way. Finally, there were little things, like the shampoo and conditioner mentioned in the listing were actually tiny travel sized ones, so after one use they were gone. Overall, if I were renting the house to experience quiet seclusion, I would absolutely stay again. However, if you are looking to experience Bar Harbor and Acadia, the travel time to get there definitely cuts into daily plans.

Beautiful home and we loved the location,being right on the lake. Josh was the best as far as any communication questions we had.

My 3 sisters, daughter and husband and sons, and I stayed at this property in June. From the beginning Josh was very prompt in communicating. The house was very private, with no neighbors in sight. The house was situated about 45 minutes from Bar Harbor, Acadia Natl park, and Bangor. It was clean, large enough for privacy and group gatherings. They had a great selection of games. The boys used the kayaks which were a new addition since booking. We also sat at the fire in the solo fire pit. Knowing we were on the lake in a forest, we knew to bring bug spray, which we did need for the mosquitoes. Grocery store was just 10 minutes away. Considering the solitude you get when staying here, the proximity to everything you need or want was perfect. The boys also enjoyed the video game during down time. Would stay again.

We really enjoyed the location of the house and its setting. It was remote enough to feel like you were in a wilderness paradise, yet close enough to Acadia national Park, where we ventured almost every day. A great place to come home too after a day of hiking and sightseeing.

What a lovely place to stay, it had everything that we needed, plenty of space and beds! The host was very communicative and friendly. Having a huge private beach was amazing! The water is warm and shallow. However the bottom is very squishy, I think because there's a lot of clay, so bring water shoes. Other than that the only other thing I can think of was there did seem to be multiple cameras on the outside of the property. I totally understand why and have no problem with that. However I feel that it should have been mentioned somewhere, but it wasn't. I would recommend this place to anyone!

Josh’s house was beautiful being very new and clean. We really liked the layout and roominess. We felt uncomfortable about all the security cameras/game cameras around the property. It seemed as though many were pointed towards the windows and some windows did not have coverings. We did not use the master shower for this reason. The cameras felt very invasive. We also found the beach and lake hard to use. It was mostly just mud and not swimmable.The yard is not ready to be used and is still a new construction site.
