Somes Harbor ~ Charming home close to Acadia National Park

Mount Desert, Maine, United States

PLEASE REVIEW the cancellation policy specific to Somes Harbor House: Once the online Reservation Request becomes fully executed and payment has been made, should the Tenant be unable to occupy the rental property for any reason except the fault of the Lessor, the Tenant is responsible for the full rent. If the Knowles Company and/or the Lessor can sublet the premises for the same period covered by the lease agreement to another Tenant, monies received from the second rental will be paid first to the Lessor to fulfill the balance of the original lease. The remainder, if any, will be paid to the original Tenant as partial or full reimbursement, less The Knowles Company commission.brbrLocated off the main road in the historic town of Somesville providing central access to Mount Desert Island, making it perfect for those who want to explore Acadia National Park, Southwest Harbor, Northeast Harbor, and/or Bar Harbor. Just five minutes away you will find both Long Pond and Echo Lake for swimming, kayaking, canoeing, paddle boarding, motorized boat access, and enjoying a day at the beach. brbrFIRST FLOOR: Kitchen area with granite countertops and cooktop stove. French doors open up into a cheerful Dining Room. Half bath, and a bright and sunny comfortable living room space with access to a spacious private deck.brbrSECOND FLOOR: Up the stairs will lead you to two charming bedrooms, one with a Full bed and the other a King.

Although a long fence and shrubbery between you and the road create a nice sense of visual privacy, some background road noise is to be expected. brbr

Or head out the front door and right into Acadia! Have an adventure then come home and enjoy the tranquility at Otterly A-maine-zing.brbrAs a side note: we are newer to the VRBO platform. We understand it can be concerning to book with a property that has little to no reviews. However, we have hosted on another platform during the 2024 season and have achieved superhost status, maintaining a 5-star review status through our 36 bookings so far. It is our goal to give you a 5-star worthy stay and make this your best Maine-Acadia trip ever. We hope this can remedy any of your concerns about choosing to book with us!
