Quiet Leonard Lake Retreat, Beautiful Waterfront Home

We came here for a family vacation and absolutely loved it. The house is everything you would expect and more. Being on the lake was very peaceful and relaxing. The house itself was very clean. Open concept made it easy to talk to everybody in the house. we spent a lot of time at Acadia national park. We had an absolutely awesome time. Thank you Suzi and Jason for your wonderful hospitality.

I enjoyed our stay! A house on a lake, fall foliage and an amazing sunrise!

Had a great stay. Too short. Loved the house and your book of guides and recommendations was great. Helped a lot. My apologies for not starting the dishwasher. Put the soap in and forgot as we were packing. Show quoted

The house was cozy and inviting. We loved the view out back! The path is well lit to walk to the pier. The harvest moon occurred during our stay and it was an amazing view off the pier. The house had everything we needed and is the perfect location for day trips around the area. A basket of brochures and travel books helped tremendously while we planned our day trips. Thank you for a great stay!

A very quaint and cozy house. Beautiful view of Lake Leonard. Very close to Ellsworth. The owner's had a detailed sheet of places to go and eat. Momo's cheesecake was delicious. Union River Lobster Pot was spot on for lobster. We also enjoyed Helen's. We would definitely stay again.

Very convenient location and nice lake view. Less than desirable properties surrounding the home, unfortunately.All VRBO properties we have stayed at had some kind of welcome basket - this did not. No contact info for the owner inside, which would have been handy. It definitely felt like more of a rental, rather than a home away from home.

Everything was wonderful

The house was beautiful and very clean and decorated so nice. Location on the lake was excellent. We just didn’t like the neighborhood in the immediate area.

Beautiful and tranquil lake home. All the necessities were there. Owners left a wonderful booklet on places to eat and shop- was very helpful! Momo’s cheesecake was fantastic! Highly recommend! Helen’s restaurant was yummy!

Just like listed. Kayaking on the lake was nice, place was clean and as described.

We had a wonderful stay at the Leonard Lake House. It is really beautiful, comfortable and clean. The view of the lake is superb and we loved hearing the loons. The house is in a great location to visit any part of Mt Desert island. The hosts are very kind and considerate. We hope to come back another time.

property was just as advertised and owner was a pleasure to deal with. everything about the house was excellent, comfortable and in perfect working order and condition. we very much enjoyed our stay.

This is a beautiful home, clean, and peaceful location. Home is right on the lake and even though we didn't get a chance to use the kayaks it was nice to look out at the lake and sit on the dock. Easy to get to and very close to restaurants and other shopping. Acadia National Park about 35 minute drive and well worth the drive. Host leaves recommendations for local spots and other travel brochures. Host sent instructions on a timely manner and responded quickly to any questions that we had. Highly recommend this home and would definitely return for a another stay. Thank you again for the use of your lovely home.

Loved it!View was gorgeous!House was clean and comfortable.

Amazing lake house! The place was very spacious, incredibly clean, well maintained, so many amenities including a fully stocked kitchen, kayaks and more. We will for sure be back someday!

Quiet clean comfortable home in Ellsworth, a quaint town a short trip to Mount desert Island and Acadia national Park. The town is worth the trip and the lake is quiet and peaceful. If Acadia is your goal this is easy access to the island. The property is as described clean and easy to access. The host responsive and accommodating. Would happily stay again if on another trip to Acadia

Great place!

A really gorgeous location. Beautifully decorated and very well equipped.Would definitely book again.

I don't write a review like this lightly, but the hosts of this property are a 5/5! Instead of running a business and just taking your money, they hosted like my Southern mother invited someone over. The view was beautiful and check-in was simple. The beds, sofa and seating were comfortable (a rare find these day). The kitchen was beautiful and well-equipped so you could explore the area without spending a ton on needed items that wouldn't fit in our suitcase. They had Rubbermaid containers, water bottles, ice packs and lunch coolers available for our hikes in Acadia. This was so appreciated! They even said no honey, you don't have to take out the trash when you leave. We have people for that. (maybe not exactly that wording, but that's how I interpreted it). I would highly recommend this property and will stay here again next time we're in Maine.

My family and I wanted to experience Acadia National Park but without all the people closer to Bar Harbor. This home was a perfect choice. They had a welcome book that gave so many GREAT suggestions which ended up being fabulous additions to our already set plans. The home had everything you may need on a short trip. We cooked at home a few times and didn’t struggle due to not having the right cookware. The bathrooms were stocked (maybe an extra towel or two would be nice to have. We just washed our towels) and the rooms were cozy and cool enough to sleep comfortably. Having the lake right by the house was a bonus as well. You can never go wrong by living next to the water. Fishing and kayaking was enjoyed the first night. The people that we met within Ellsworth were all super kind and helpful and always steered us in the right directions. The home, the area, and the host’s welcome book is spot on!

We had a nice stay in this very quiet home by the lake.

Fantastic. All updated and done well. Great views and neighbor very nice. Easy to use Google maps to find place.

Great place, great spot, and great communication. Definitely a place we would use again. Thank you!

Very nice place to home base for trips to Acadia NP! Home is stocked well and has a lovely location on a lake. Definitely recommend!

As pictured except a new path to the dock. Unfortunately the new railing is too narrow to easily carry the kayaks to the water. Otherwise everything was good. The beds were comfortable and the lake was great. Just a couple minutes from everything in ellsworth. Very little traffic down tge street. Would go again

Great location. Peaceful and perfect all around. Clean and very comfortable! Highly recommended!

We had a lovely few days at this beautiful property while we explored Bar Harbor and Acadia National Park. House was well equipped with every convenience. Would happily stay again.

The property was as advertised. The lake view from the large windows was awesome. It was far enough from town that you could see the stars at night. The beds were comfortable, the kitchen was large, and the living area was nice. It was 30 minutes to Acadia and away from the end-of-season crowds. Martha's Diner was a FIND for breakfast.

A wonderful place to stay. Newly renovated and well done, with great location near plenty of outdoor activities and convenient drive to Acadia National Park. And the view from the house is spectacular - lakeside with outdoor seating, firepit, dock and more. Quiet, peaceful with easy access to both town and nature. Highly recommend.

The home is very comfortable and had everything we needed. It is in a beautiful setting, at least when looking at the lake. The drive to Acadia was longer than I expected, but worth it since the house is so lovely! I would definitely stay there again and recommend it to others.

The house was spotless and comfortable. Everything we needed. The exterior had chairs for lounging with a spectacular lake view. We could walk down to the dock for an even better view. Would definitely stay here again.

Everything was great! He home is beau! The owner got right back to me when I had silly questions! Very close to hiking, restersunt and shopping !

We loved our stay at this charming lake house! It was peaceful and quiet with beautiful views of the lake. The owners really have thought of everything to make sure their guests have an enjoyable experience and communication with them was excellent. The house was very clean and well stocked. Great location with easy access to town, Acadia, and Bar Harbor. We have stayed at numerous properties over the past several years and this was one of the best! Will definitely return!

We took a Trip to bar harbor/ Acadia. Drive was about a half hour to bar harbor from the house. House was super clean and beds were comfortable. Very quiet location and loved the little dock to fish on. We were out and about most of the time, wish we had more time to enjoy the house !

Loved staying at property

The house was perfect for our needs. Really we’re just there to recover after hiking and exploring the area each day but it had everything we needed and the beds were sooo comfy!!

This home was charming, clean and comfortable! Nice to have a kitchen with everything you need to prepare dinner after a day at Acadia. Also having washer and dryer is a plus. Down town Ellsworth also was a plus! Good restaurants and shopping.

The location is perfect if you are looking for a more affordable option outside of Bar Harbor. The property was wonderful and had all the ammeneties we needed.

There is not much to say …. We just enjoyed all Perfect place, perfect food, just excellent

We really enjoyed our stay in Ellsworth. The house was perfect for us. It was clean, well stocked, the check-in and out process was easy and the owner was communicative and the lake was beautiful. We were very pleased and highly recommend this property.

Perfect location with multiple activities to do. House is Clean with beautiful views of the lake.

Perfect house for a family with two kids. Quiet lake with plenty of space to take out the included Kayaks. Close to Ellsworth with a few shops and good dining options. Super quiet and scenic. Host is very responsive and very friendly. Would love to come back one day.

Quiet house on the lake. It was so peaceful with amazing views of the lake. The house was very clean and well stocked. The center of town is short drive away with shops and great places to eat. Acadia and Bar Harbor are about a 35 minute drive away. Definitely recommend to others and would stay again.

We loved this little house, it had everything we needed and was a cozy respite from our travels.

We absolutely loved this property - quiet location on a lake, but close enough to Bar Harbor, Acadia, and surrounding attractions. House had everything we needed with nice-sized bedrooms and full kitchen. Made good use of the firepit, grill, picnic table, and kayaks too! Would definitely stay here again.

Property is spotless. It looks recently renewed. No detailes have been overlooked. There is even an umbrella available. Nice view to the lake, and the availability of kayaks was a plus. We had a great time. Strongly recommend it.

perfect place to day trip out from. lake is beautiful, neighborhood is quiet, town is 5 minutes away. would book again. we were four adults, had everything we needed.

Was great, little kayaking, fishing, fire pit with the family and short drive to Cadillac Mountain and Bar Harbor. I would definitely repeat very clean and well taken care of property as advertised
