Beautifully remodeled 4bedroom/ 3 bath farmhouse (4th bedroom is the front room on 1st floor. Has cozy pullout queen couch, across from full bath. This is great for those with mobility issues). 5th BEDROOM/BATH CAN BE ADDED- is the walkout basement apt, accessed through the kitchen or outside.

Nestled in a quiet field overlooking Gorham Mountain. in Acadia. This house is just 1 mile from hiking and biking in Acadia National Park or lying on the beach. Four miles from Bar Harbor on the free public (seasonal) shuttle loop. Great location for day and evening activities or just sitting and watching sunsets off the back deck. Fully stocked kitchen and bath remodels great for large families. Relax on the deck, while taking in the mountains, sunset and moon rise. Great place for children. Hot tub outside on the back deck. Wood/tile floors throughout. The downstairs is very sunny and open. Because this is our home, the kitchen is fully stocked with all the basics plus many extras. The master bedroom has its own marbled tile bathroom with a large shower. There is a den on the first floor that has a very cozy pullout couch (seriously, I bought it for my parents) and bathroom right next to it, for those not comfortable going up and down stairs. In the bathrooms, soaps and shampoos are provided. The linens and towels are always of high quality, so you feel spoiled on your vacation. As nurses we keep it VERY CLEAN! There is a walkout basement apartment as well for those who need an extra bedroom, or a bit more privacy. The apartment is very bright with the walkout and it is very peaceful down there. It is listed as the additional fee 500 in the costs. The apartment is accessed down a set of basement stairs or from the outside (not handicap accessible).

Weekly rentals June-October only (Sat-Sat). Three day minimum in the winters.

    Great property with lots of sleeping and hanging out options. Perfect location for both Bar Harbor and Acadia. Enjoyed the hot tub, fire pit, and Blackstone grill. The host was avaliable, responsive, and helpful yet unintrusive. Wonderful vacation!

    We were all VERY impressed with this farmhouse. Everything was beautifully arranged, and it was fully stocked with all that we needed for our visit. We particularly liked the hot tub and the fire pit, where we made somemores one evening. When we wanted to go into town, all we had to do was catch the Island Explorer when it passed by the driveway. All in all, a great experience!

    This house was absolutely perfect for our family. We were traveling with 4 adults and 3 kids (ages 2, 4, and 5). They had a high chair and pack-n-play available for us, as well as some kid toys. The sprawling layout, multiple sitting areas, fully-stocked kitchen, and lovely deck/backyard made us feel so comfortable and at home. The foyer has a ton of storage space and hooks which was great for a big family. We enjoyed the big cabinet of games, the large dining table for family meals, and the fire pit in the evening for s’mores. We got to meet Chris and Angie in person and they were so helpful and kind. Our son turned 2 during our stay and Angie dropped off some children’s books wrapped in birthday paper. The location of the house in relation to Bar Harbor and Acadia is fantastic. A short drive to so many awesome places. Seal Harbor Beach, Jordan’s Pond, Cadillac Mountain, and Abel’s Lobster were some of our favorites. If we ever go back to Bar Harbor we will 100% be booking this house again. Thanks for an amazing stay!

    We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the farmhouse. It has all the amenities for a great vacation. It is very clean and well maintained. Angie was very accommodating and very helpful answering any questions we had. The location is convenient to the harbors and hiking trails and is away from the crowds. Sitting in the hot tub after a long hike and sitting at the fire pit after dinner felt perfect. This is a trip we will treasure for a long while.

    Our family enjoyed a wonderful week and we were very happy with the accommodations. The proximity to town and other attractions is what made this property stand out to us and it did not disappoint. This is a great property for a large family or a group of people that want to enjoy all Bar Harbor and Acadia have to offer. Angie and Chris were awesome hosts and very responsive. Thank you for everything!

    We had a great time at this property. The home, amenities, location, and hosts. It was all just right for us. From the yard, to the toys for the kids, to the hot tub, to the basketball hoop, kitchen, bathrooms, etc. We could not have asked for more. Highly recommend!

    This home did not disappoint. Was exactly as described. Pictures on the listing do not do it justice. Has everything you could need and more. Less then a 10 minute drive to the entrances of Acadia NP. I would highly recommend renting this home for your Bar Harbor stay.

    We had a group of 11 family members and this home provided ample living space and comfort. The kitchen was extremely well equipped, there were ample sheets and linens, an abundance of outdoor and indoor games, and we loved using the lobster pots to have our first lobster boil. We walked to the coffee shop several times which was an added bonus. The host was extremely friendly and helpful. The property was quiet and it was only a short drive to many Acadia sites as well as close to Bar Harbor. We would highly recommend this home and would love to come back!

    We had a fabulous time at Angie and Chris's beautiful, clean, spacious Otter Creek property! With three floors and numerous rooms and bathrooms, our family of ten from three different households was able to find privacy when needed, yet also able to gather in comfort as a large group. Angie and Chris were very responsive to our needs and couldn't have been more hospitable. We especially appreciated being able to fit around one table for meals. Our 11 year old twin grandchildren loved the large yard, the swings-both indoor and outdoor, and the games cupboard. The location was also convenient to Bar Harbor, Acadia's Loop Road, Jorday Pond, and Northeast Harbor, and is just a short drive from one of our favorite hikes, Dorr Mountain. It also has an enchanting number of fireflies you may see from the wrap-around porch after dark, not to mention a great view of the night sky! If we ever organize ourselves to return as a family, we'll hope to stay at this wonderful property again.

    We have stayed on MDI many times, as well as lots of other vacation rentals elsewhere. This actually felt like home. It had all the amenities you could ask for, stunning in every way, and a perfect location to access trails and town. We were 3 small families of life long friends and were amazed at the details the home had to offer from cooking utensils to an amazing record collection, fire pit and piano. It is simply perfect. Thank you Angie and Chris and we'll se you next time!

    This home had everything we needed for our family reunion: group of 8. Clean and welcoming in a convenient location. Easy access to several trailheads. Short drive to Bar Harbor. Bright sunny spaces for gathering but enough bedrooms to get away. A cozy library served as puzzle-central. The kitchen had everything we needed and large enough for group meal prep. From the country style dining table there’s a grand view of Gotham mountain. A lovely deck, with a hot tub. Lawn games in the evening with fireflies. Great hosts who were quick to help! We gathered from far and wide. Can’t wait to meet here again! Thank you!
