    The first thing we noticed when we arrived was how clean the place was and the beautiful view from THE living room. Amber communicated very well with us and was always available when we had a question. We would definitely recommend for anyone wanting to spend time in Bass Harbor-Bar Harbor-Acadia NP.

    Beautiful, peaceful home in the perfect location. Located in beautiful, quiet Bass Harbor. Bedroom upstairs was perfect for my kids and they had their own bathroom. Located right near the water made for incredible early morning and evening views. House had everything we needed to feel at home. We walked to the nearby ferry and visited Swan Island for the day. Perfect vacation. The hosts were wondering and caring.

    This place was perfect in every way. It was immaculate, comfortable, quiet, very adequate and a great location for exploring in Acadia National Park and the whole area. The kitchen was so nice and the grill worked perfectly. The 2 bathrooms were a plus.

    My wife and I stayed for almost a week and loved everything about the house and location. The house was very clean, cozy, and had great views of Bass Harbor. Easy to get out and explore Southwest Harbor and Acadia National Park. We would definitely stay here again. Highly recommend!

    Our family of six stayed at this house as we were there to hike Acadia national Park. The house is spotless, and a very accessible area, and had outdoor space to play spike ball in cornhole and ride bikes. We did the nature tour right in our harbor, went to Thurston’s the yellow building right across the harbor and visited the boat museum. Our only suggestion would be furniture upstairs that you can sit on to hang out that is a little bit more comfortable than two chairs. The teens wanted their own space to hangout together. The neighbors were fantastic and even let our kids hold their parrot, Uno. We would 100% book again..

    We loved this place! The house is in a beautiful spot right on the harbor. It was fun to watch the tide come in and out. It is a very clean and well appointed house with comfortable beds and it had everything we needed. We enjoyed staying on the “quiet” side of Mt. Desert Island. This is our favorite vacation rental we’ve ever stayed in

    This place did not disappoint!! When we arrived, we were in awe of the beautiful views!! We were right on the water and enjoyed watching the tide change each day. The house was adorable and we truly loved everything about it! It is very well- maintained and we felt so relaxed and at home. We loved the location as well! Away from the crowds but super close to restaurants and other points of interest. We would Definitely stay again!
