Delightful historic home
Perfect location for Acadia and Maine coast sightseeing. Right on the main drag in Blue Hill, with a busy coffee shop on the doorstep, which was great for us. Very quiet at night, however. The house is renovated, but still has historic charm. Clean, comfortable, and roomy for three adults, with direct access across the street to a trail that goes up Blue Hill.

The Herrick House
Clean, cozy and great location. We had some communication difficulties- took a while to enter the location. The floors were a bit undeveloped and the stairwell was very steep. Made it a little difficult for the seniors.
