The Modern Bar Harbor Ranch

We enjoyed our yay.

Very comfortable, only 15 minutes from downtown Bar Harbor, just a few minutes from Acadia. It was perfect for our group of 7. Kitchen well stocked, we enjoyed the fire pit.

Great location and well stocked for family meals. One of the best parts was the communication with the host and the response times. The host actually made you feel that they were glad you were there.

Great house, with lots of space. We had a fun time in Bar Harbor and Acadia National Park.

We had a great time at the property. It close to the park and the town. Only downside is that it’s off of busy road. We enjoyed the home theater and sauna!

This property has it's pros and cons but I agree with the other reviewer who left a 6/10 rating that this property is good, but not great. Location wise, it's only a short drive from Bar Harbor and the entrance to Acadia so it's convenient without being in the busy downtown area and is a great starting point for your daily activities. On the negative side though, I was not impressed with the cleanliness, especially the kitchen. Cabinet and drawer faces were sticky and we had to wash almost every pot and pan before we used them because of food residue and grime. For the steep cleaning fee this property charges I would have expected it to be much cleaner when we arrived. The kitchen floor was also awkward to walk on because most of the tiles were loose in the subfloor with grout missing and wobbled when walked on. Potential guests should be aware that the layout of the house is a bit strange. Two of the bedrooms are on the lower level of this split level home, which in itself is no big deal, but the lower level is open to an unfinished laundry area and the rest of the basement. A highlight of the stay was the movie theater. The owner did a nice job on this space but it took us a few minutes to find it since you have to go through a utility room in the unfinished area of the basement to get there. Overall, this property wasn't for me and I would not book again but it could be great with more attention to cleaning and a bit of maintenance work.

Amazing location. Beautiful home. Not disappointed and would stay again. Home theater was a treat.

My family and friends had a lot of fun staying here. Wish we actually had more time to use the sauna and the movie theater. The kitchen also had any spices you'd think of! The one personal downside was the beds are 3-4 on the firmness scale but other than that, no complaints!

Enjoyed our stay, used the fire pit and back deck a good bit. A lil drive to everything which we knew before arriving. There was a little road noise during the day but zero issue at night. Had fun with the chickens that came to visit :)

The house is quite roomy and conveniently located 20 minutes from downtown. Only 5 minutes to the airport! It has everything you need and the patio seating is nicely shaded throughout the entire day! Would definitely stay again when in the area.
