An easy five minute walk to downtown to enjoy the many shops, restaurants, the shore path and the Island Explorer, which provides free rides around the island. If you want to explore on your own, Acadia National Park is just a short five minute drive away. If golf is your thing, Kebo Valley Golf Club is just around the corner.

The home has been updated, nicely decorated and has three upstairs bedrooms with a full bath. There is a king bed in the master bedroom, a second bedroom with two twin beds, and bunk beds for the kids in the third bedroom. All three bedrooms have AC units. The first floor contains a lovely living room with sectional sofa, an updated kitchen with a large eat-in island, an additional side table for two, and a full bathroom and a laundry area with washer and dryer. There is also an AC downstairs as well. The outside back deck has a nice dining table and gas grill, as well as a fenced in yard. There is a covered front porch and a private driveway for parking.

The home also has high speed Wi-Fi, Smart TV's with Roku devices, both upstairs and down.

Perfect Bar Harbor home for dog family
Stepping into the home felt like it could be a second home outfitted exactly how I’d have left it for when I return, making start up easy. The fenced in yard was a treat, and the house adorable. The location is fantastic! So quick and easy to get to downtown or the Park.

Comfortable stay with welcoming hosts
The house was really comfortable and in a great location. Bobby was a welcoming host and made everything really easy for us throughout the stay. The kitchen had the essentials we needed to cook a few meals in, which was a big plus for us. I'd definitely stay here again.

Holidays in Bar Harbor
Took advantage of a warm spell in northern Maine and celebrated the holiday in Bar Harbor. We've stayed at this property several times before and have always had a positive experience. Great house and great location that is close to downtown and easy walk into Acadia NP. Won't hesitate to come back again.

Fantastic Stay in Bar Harbor
The house location was great- easy walk to Main Street, yet very quiet. Everything was very clean & well decorated. The kitchen was excellent- very spacious and had anything you may need to fix a meal. The beds were comfortable & we slept great after busy days. Our host was easy to communicate with and very helpful. I would HIGHLY recommend this property for a family vacation.

Falcon’s Nest is clean, well maintained, super comfortable and stocked with everything one would need. We loved the location in a quiet neighborhood, but an easy, short walk to shops and restaurants. We highly recommend this wonderful house! Thanks to Bobby and Sandi for sharing their home with us. We are hoping to return next year.

We were so impressed with this VRBO! The house is beautiful, clean, and comfortable. It is well-stocked with everything you need and has the perfect layout for relaxing. It's in a quiet neighborhood within walking distance to the downtown area. Bobby is a great host and was easy to reach. Would definitely recommend this property.

Excellent stay
The house is perfect for a family vacation. It was very clean and the location is superb. We walked to town every night. Acadia National Park was a 7 minute drive. The owner was great at communicating with me and even checked in by text to make sure that everything was to our liking. There is nothing negative about this place. If I have to visit Bar Harbor again, I would definitely stay here again.

Like staying with Family
This is our second time renting from this owner, first time with this location, and both experiences have been amazing. This location in particular has an excellent location to be walkable into town, and is short drives to all major attractions/ points of interest that Mount Dessert Island has to offer. I love that the property is pet friendly as well so our dog can join us for our adventures. The owners are amazing and very reachable to ensure you have an amazing stay. Will definitely love to stay with them again! If you’ve been looking then look no further, this place definitely was a great stay!

Nice Bar Harbor Home
House was fully stocked with all you need. Comfortable living room. Decent bedrooms but only 1 closet to hang clothes. Located close enough to downtown and short drive to Acadia. Street was a bit busy being on the corner. We would recommend staying here.

Bar Harbor
We were extremely pleased with our stay at this property. It is the absolute best location, walking distance to downtown and within 15-20 minutes of Acadia trails on the east side. The house is well stocked to make your stay comfortable as soon as you arrive. Very clean. Host responsed quickly to initial questions. We did not have any issues during our stay. Highly recommend!

Great stay
This property needed reviewed because it was a great stay and the owner couldn’t have been better! We have stayed at many VRBO properties and have rented one ourselves. They included a lot of nice extras…paper towels, extra towels (which were soft), laundry pods, coffee, toilet paper, beach towels if needed! We were fully expecting to have to make a quick trip to the store when we arrived! Mattresses comfy, plenty of blankets, and a great front porch to sit with our coffee! Half mile walk into town. We would rent again, but this place will be booked, I’m sure!

Absolute Perfect Stay
First, the communication with the owner was top notch. Second, we research many properties before we choose where to stay and this property lived up to its reviews and our expectations. Third, this house was immaculate and homey without being too “sterile” like some rental properties. The neighborhood was so cute and had easy access to downtown. Acadia was pretty and super close, and had some great trails to hike! We came to the east coast for a different location for an “adults only” getaway vacation but we will definitely be back to Bar Harbor with our kids. They would love it here. We appreciate the owners sharing their place with us and for the cool Maine flag bag and delicious blueberry jam. Thanks for giving us a perfect place to stay our our very first ever trip to Maine!

Thanksgiving Get-away
My daughter, dog and I visited Bar Harbor for the first time over the Thanksgiving holiday. We arrived finding a fresh pumpkin pie and lovely note of welcome on the kitchen counter. From this initial greeting, our stay was nothing short of magical. Bobby and Sandy's house is perfectly situated--close to downtown and all the Main street shops and restuarants and it backs up to a park which is perfect for those traveling with their fur baby. An added amenity is the fenced in back yard. The house was clean, the beds were comfy and the tv was easy to work, the neighborhood friendly and safe. I would not hesitate to recommend this property if someone desires an authentic Bar Harbor experience!
