We had a wonderful stay! The house is in a great location—close to Acadia National Park and conveniently situated in town. The four bedrooms were perfect for our group, and the fireplace added a cozy touch. The home is a bit older, but it’s charming, comfortable, and well-suited for a relaxing stay. We’d love to come back again with friends!

We had a good visit at the Maine Retreat. Really nice bathrooms and kitchen, and the beds were very comfortable. There are new windows which make the house very quiet even though it is on a well traversed road. Amanda was available and helpful with any questions.

Good spot for exploring Acadia and Bar Harbor

Stayed here for a family trip which included a teenager and my elderly parents. Clean house, comfortable beds, plenty of space, and two great showers. Stairs are steep as an older home but very manageable for my parents. Town is quiet but fun to explore with cute shops and eateries. Easy drive to Acadia on MDI, Bar Harbor, and Schoodic Peninsula (highly recommend Schoodic).

Great place to stay

We all enjoyed our stay here. Our two families included 3 teenagers and there was room for all comfortably. We appreciated the AC that kept the house cool during the heat wave. The description of the house and property are accurate. We went to Bar Harbor and Acadia Nat'l Park as well as a few surrounding local restaurants and establishments. It's a cute town with everything you need to stay entertained. The property is beautiful. Amanda was super attentive and quick in her responses. I would definitely recommend this property. Thank you, Amanda!
