Eric was great! The unit was as advertised. It is walking distance to downtown, which made the need for driving non existent. The only driving we did was around the island and park. We will be back. Thx Eric.

This was the perfect location and the host was responsive and helpful. My only complaint is that the bed is terribly uncomfortable and even after tightening the frame it squeaks with the littlest movement. My husband actually went to sleep on the hide-a-bed towards the end of the stay (we went out and purchased a mattress pad to make it more comfortable) because the bed hurt his back so much. But if the bed were to be upgraded I would come back. The convenience of the location and the allotted parking space make this an ideal place. Heads up there is no air conditioning, but I think that’s common for the area and there were only 2 nights of our 2 week stay where it was a bit uncomfortable until it cooled down.

Great accommodations!

Location of the house is great! Everything in bar harbor is walkable and it’s a quick drive to Acadia. The house is well stocked. My only small criticism is that some of the appliances and the mattress seem pretty outdated, so I say 4.75/5. I loved all the bird themed decor :)Thanks for a great stay!

Excellent location

This isn’t the fanciest place in Bar Harbor, but it has so many great things going for it. The host is very responsive, and the location is ideal—close enough to downtown to walk easily, but far enough to be quiet and peaceful. The dedicated parking spot is a huge plus, making it easy to come and go without the hassle of finding street parking. I also loved that the bedroom is tucked away upstairs, offering a cozy, private retreat.

Great spot to be in Bar Harbor!

We loved this rental! You are just steps from all the shops and restaurants, but since it's on a side street, it was very quiet. Erik answered any questions immediately and the pics on the site were spot on. Easy access to Acadia National Park. Would definitely rent here again.

Excellent Stay

First of all, Eric was a great host. The Loon Nest was an excellent stay for our first time in Bar Harbor. The property is just a short walk to all the attractions of the town of Bar Harbor and a short drive or bike to Acadia. After a day of hiking, shopping, and a big lobster feast this was excellent place to relax. Highly recommend.

Week in Bar Harbor

A well-maintained roomy apartment on two floors with a separate entrance and balcony in an older building. Both the living room on the 2nd floor and bedroom on the 3rd floor are good-sized and the separate kitchen has all that one needs to cook. Ideal for an extended stay where one wants to spread out. Location is excellent a few blocks from Main St and the free Acadia shuttles. The host was very helpful. We would readily return for an extened stay.

Perfect for exploring Bar Harbor and Acadia. The village green, restaurants, and shops are a short walk away, and the park entrance is less than 10 minutes away. The owner is very helpful and responsive and the apartment includes lots of maps and other information about the park.

A Great Week

We come to Bar Harbor every year. This was a wonderful place to stay--perfect location, close to shops and restaurants but at the same time very quiet (and with a shady balcony that was perfect for reading). And Eric was quick to respond to any questions. We had a great week.

Great Location

We had a great time in Bar Harbor. The condo was nice and clean when we arrived. The location was great and very walkable to shops and restaurants. We had no hair dryer there when we arrived but Eric had one delivered that afternoon. He responded quickly whenever we needed to ask any questions or had any concerns.
