A great place to get away for sure! The place was real clean, cozy, and comfortable. The ping-pong table, dartboard and downstairs area was a great place to hang out. It was nice to get back to watching movies at night and playing games with the family. Look forward to staying again!

The place was spacious and clean. Overall it was a wonderful stay. The only concern was that the beds were a little lumpy, however, for the most part, we were able to sleep.

Will not rent here again, need to check out all appliances.
Our stay here was not fully what we expected. The location was definitely too far from Acadia and Bar Harbor. It is a nice country setting but you have to drive an hour to hike Acadia and see Bar Harbor, not 30 minutes. The basement game room was a nice feature. My biggest complaint is that it was hot during our stay, there is NO AC and the one ceiling fan in the living room was not working!! This made for a very uncomfortable stay. Then our code for the house stopped working, they did help us promptly with getting access to the house. I requested to check out just an hour later, and they didn’t allow it. So not happy with the customer service to at least try to compensate for the fact that we had no ceiling fan to move the air around. One more inconvenience was the newer coffee makers on the counter did not work. Please check all appliances before renting this property so that what you advertise is actually functional.

Enjoyed our stay here immensely
I love this house! It was very clean, the location is beautiful, the decor and the rugs are amazing. The rooms and the furniture are so accommodating for a comfortable stay. In the evenings after sightseeing all day, we had so much fun playing games in the basement or cards at the kitchen table. We greatly appreciate that there were ample supplies of all the necessities. We would stay here again in a heartbeat!

cozy maine house
I loved how homey the house was! We had so much fun relaxing and playing ping pong and watching VHS tapes after a long day of hiking in Acadia and touring around the area. The house is on a quiet road and is an easy drive to the Maine road, which we were able to take to Acadia and Campo Bello Island (our two big trips).

Nice home base for Acadia park region
Nice quiet north woods property within an hours drive of Acadia national park and surroundings. Comfortable family rooms, kitchens and beds. No wifi or live tv if you need that but cell service was adequate for most needs. Good place to disconnect from the grid for awhile and enjoy this part of Maine.
