    This was the perfect place away from the crowds of Acadia and Bar Harbor. The house was well provisioned and the five of us and our little pup had plenty of room to enjoy. We would definitely return for a future trip!!

    We took a family trip to visit Acadia and show some Texans and Californians some real fall colors. We had an amazing time and the house was so cozy and fully stocked! We’d highly recommend staying :)

    Overall, we all enjoyed our stay at the home. There was enough room for each couple, the house was spacious, well stocked, and decorated nicely. The location was lovely.Unfortunately, there are two areas of concern. First, the plumbing in the house had some issues. I’m sure this happens over time and is hard to manage with different tenants coming in and out. There were numerous drips and leaks in the bathroom faucets, and the upstairs shower drain was blocked up. Lastly, the house was not cleaned well upon arrival.Again, I think this place has so much to offer and we would love to return, but hope that these few minor details would be addressed.

    Great stay. Not a bad drive to attractions. Far enough away for quiet time.

    We stayed four nights and made trips to Bar Harbor and Acadia National Park. It is a cozy place with quite a bit of character. The property manager was quick to respond to questions. There is no AC but lots of fans so be aware during the summer months but the twmperature was fine in September.

    Cottage was in a great location. About 25 minutes from Winter Harbor for ferry to Bar Harbor and 45 minutes to Acadia. Quiet area - about 5 minutes to local beach area.

    Overall a very good stay, we loved being on the quieter side of Acadia and enjoyed the beauty of the nearby Schoodic Peninsula. The cycling was amazing and we took advantage of many of the local hiking trails. The house definitely met out needs and we were thrilled to be able to bring the dogs. It was clean, comfortable for sleeping, and it offered ample places to sit back and relax. The kids really appreciated the pool table. Susan was quick to respond to our questions and was available, if needed. We did feel that the house could use a little added attention, repairing the screen doors and adding some updated kitchen cook wear. Nothing major, but would be helpful for future renters.

    The house was overall a nice place for three adults to stay. It’s VERY secluded, which we didn’t mind. One major critique is that the listing says “at the beach” and it is very much in the middle of Sorrento with no water in sight. Some small repairs would go a long way. Lights and fans that didn’t work, beams that fell off kitchen cabinets (one that almost hit me in the head), etc. Otherwise it was clean and comfortable.

    Our stay was ok, but nothing to write home about. The listing looks idyllic and gives the impression it’s a beautiful quiet setting. The home sits right on the road. There is a hedge to give some sense of privacy, but you’ll see and hear every car or bike that goes by. The home is tired and has obvious wear and tear of being a rental. Several of the windows are missing screens and are unable to be opened. We never got the family room ceiling fan to work. This was a problem because the home doesn’t have air conditioning. Most of the time, that should be fine. In July with temps always above 80, it was miserably hot and humid. We knew going in that the house was a good drive to Acadia. We planned for it. If you want to be close to the park, this is not the rental for you. It’s at least 45 minutes to Mount Desert Island if not longer with traffic. In that sense, this home is away from it all, including restaurants. In terms of cleanliness, we arrived midweek the night before trash collection. I messaged that not all the trash would be picked up because it wasn’t tagged and ready to go. I was told not to worry about it and anything not collected the property manager would come get. I was under the impression that meant someone would tale care of it the next day. Instead I messaged again a couple days later before it was picked up and we were no longer smelling it. There’s mold in the showers and in the washing machine as well. Again, just ok.

    We had a nice time in Maine. The house was fine for our stay. We visited Acadia most days and the location was an hour from MDI. Even though the only tv was in the basement, we were busy outdoors and really didn't miss it.
