The home was nice and cozy. It met all our needs, had a well stocked kitchen, linens and laundry. The rooms and bedding were setup nice and clean. Each room has a portable AC so we had to turn that on once we arrived to let the place cool down and air circulate. The location was about 25 minutes drive from Bar Harbor and usually 20-25 minutes away from our daily activities, but it worked out for us just fine.

Saved the day

The property manager relocated us to this house after we were double booked. The property manager was not responsible for the mistake, but he helped tremendously and saved our vacation. The house was in a great spot and we would not have found it without his help. Thank you!

Wonderful Maine Stay

My family met in Maine to celebrate my mother’s 70th birthday. We were 6 adults and found the house more than accommodating! I did not receive check-in instructions 24 hours before arrival, but Dwayne responded to me quickly and answered additional questions. The home had everything we needed and was very clean. We appreciated access to the washer and dryer as it allowed us to do a few loads of laundry instead of packing a lot of different clothing for hiking, going to dinner, etc. The photos of the bedroom arrangements on the listing didn’t match for one of the rooms, which didn’t bother us. My parents have slight mobility issues and the tall sides of the upstairs tub were a bit challenging for them, but we figured out how to make it work. I only mention this for people who this would pose a problem for their stay. This side of the island was quiet but still close to everything. Deer regularly visited the yard and we also saw turkeys in the neighborhood. Thanks for a relaxing stay!

Classic Maine property

We loved the trumpet lillies and the hummingbirds. House had plenty of space for our 7 and the location on Bass Harbor is blissfully far from the crowds of the park. Wunderland and Ship’s Harbor made for easy hiking/beach/rock climbing outings within two miles. The house is old but well maintained. Very glad that we found this gem.

A Stay in Tremont August 10-14th

This was our third stay renting a place on Mt. Desert Island, and our first time on this property. We stayed as two couples. Before arriving at the property I reviewed the listing extensively and messaged with the owner. Here is a very honest review! Overall, our crew had a wonderful time on the island and made the most of our trip; this review is relating to this property. Pros: The owner was responsive to questions upon arrival and got back to us within an hour. Location to Bass Harbor Lighthouse was great! Decent sized property. Quiet neighborhood. Loved watching the hummingbirds from the porch! Cons: Lack of working lightbulbs and lights that flickered throughout the house. Carpets and furniture were stained. Property was listed as having AC, upon arrival house was stuffy and there were two units for the entire house. Property manager did send over someone to remedy that, and we were appreciative. House was damp with a mildew smell. Floor not mopped prior to arrival. Window broken in front bedroom, no one alerted before arrival. Back bedroom did not have blinds. Drawer with silverware had loose food in it, all dishes/cutlery needed washing prior to use. Overall, kind of disappointed with the house especially since we were upfront about our expectations. House was not worth the price. I wish I had seen an honest review such as this before we rented, so I am hoping this will assist other families/ make the property manager and owner make improvements.

We had a wonderful stay at this home! The house has everything you could need to relax and enjoy during your trip to Maine. The house is very quiet and we saw deer in the front yard! We loved the close proximity to many hiking trails in Acadia National Park.

Nice house, location about 20-25 minutes to Bar Harbor. Closer to Acadia Ntl Park. We enjoyed our stay. Stop at Walmart and grab supplies on way by = much cheaper! Local store has everything you need but at a price. Carpet needs cleaning everything else was great. Beautiful area to explore.

Excellent Stay for Our Large Family

Home had all the basics for our stay with 5 kids, including air conditioning. The screened in porch is perfect at night and in the morning. Drive to the end of the street for harbor views. Easy access to downtown Southwest Harbor. And Archie’s food truck on the water with some cornhole was a great stop.

Tremont

We have always preferred to stay in the southwest portion of Mt. Desert island - because of the relative solitude if nothing else - but we have come to love the area as well. That being the case, this property is perfectly situated for us. Beyond that, the property manager was super helpful and cooperative with our rather large family group. We very much enjoyed our stay and recommend the accommodations highly. RWK

Perfect for our group

Our family had a nice stay at Island Ferry. We had all the comforts of home. It was a perfect spot to unwind after hiking in the park. We had everything we needed to cook meals and places close enough for when we didn’t want to. Although we’ve visited MDI many times this was the first time staying on the quiet side and it was great! Dwayne is a very responsive host answering all my questions prior to booking and prior to arrival. I’m sure if we needed sketching during our stay he would have been just as attentive.

Located on a quiet street in Bass Harbor. It was a short drive to Bar Harbor and Acadia. Southwest harbor is quaint and relatively quiet. Bring bug spray because the mosquitoes are terrible so we weren't able to enjoy the fire pit in the evening however, the closed in perch was nice. We had a great stay!
