Great location and amenities were perfect!

The neighborhood in which this property is located is close to a small downtown area that allowed us to get some ice cream one night. It was also close to our destination which was Bar Harbor and Acadia.

Family get together

This property was clean and exactly as advertised. The host was easy to communicate with. We were able to stay together as a family for our daughter's wedding. It was perfect for us and I would chose the rental again.

The check-in process was easy- had all of the information that we needed. The home had 3 bedrooms and one bath on the main level and a bedroom, bath and additional living area in the finished basement. Air conditioning units were in basement and on upper level. Kitchen was in excellent condition and had all necessary items. Nice back deck to enjoy dinner or breakfast. We used this as a launching point for visiting Acadia National Park -just over 30 min drive. We also enjoyed some of the restaurants in town. Home is close to grocery stores.
