Great Stay Near Acadia National Park
The property was as advertised. The lake view from the large windows was awesome. It was far enough from town that you could see the stars at night. The beds were comfortable, the kitchen was large, and the living area was nice. It was 30 minutes to Acadia and away from the end-of-season crowds. Martha's Diner was a FIND for breakfast.

Great location, property & views
A wonderful place to stay. Newly renovated and well done, with great location near plenty of outdoor activities and convenient drive to Acadia National Park. And the view from the house is spectacular - lakeside with outdoor seating, firepit, dock and more. Quiet, peaceful with easy access to both town and nature. Highly recommend.

Very comfortable
The home is very comfortable and had everything we needed. It is in a beautiful setting, at least when looking at the lake. The drive to Acadia was longer than I expected, but worth it since the house is so lovely! I would definitely stay there again and recommend it to others.

Amazing home on the lake
We loved our stay at this charming lake house! It was peaceful and quiet with beautiful views of the lake. The owners really have thought of everything to make sure their guests have an enjoyable experience and communication with them was excellent. The house was very clean and well stocked. Great location with easy access to town, Acadia, and Bar Harbor. We have stayed at numerous properties over the past several years and this was one of the best! Will definitely return!

This home was charming, clean and comfortable! Nice to have a kitchen with everything you need to prepare dinner after a day at Acadia. Also having washer and dryer is a plus. Down town Ellsworth also was a plus! Good restaurants and shopping.

Perfect Little Lake House
Quiet house on the lake. It was so peaceful with amazing views of the lake. The house was very clean and well stocked. The center of town is short drive away with shops and great places to eat. Acadia and Bar Harbor are about a 35 minute drive away. Definitely recommend to others and would stay again.

Awesome Vacation
We absolutely loved this property - quiet location on a lake, but close enough to Bar Harbor, Acadia, and surrounding attractions. House had everything we needed with nice-sized bedrooms and full kitchen. Made good use of the firepit, grill, picnic table, and kayaks too! Would definitely stay here again.

This house was a cozy and quiet home base for our trip to Acadia. We had everything we needed for our family of four with easy access to stores and restaurants. The trip into the park was quick and easy. The private dock, kayaks and fire pit made this feel like a park experience with all the creature comforts you could want.

Open concept made it easy to talk to everybody in the house. we spent a lot of time at Acadia national park. We had an absolutely awesome time.

This cute little lake house was the absolute best retreat for long days at Acadia Park for us. We used the kayaks and paddled around. Everything is very clean! We enjoyed it so much we added in an extra day! Host was easily reached and speedy to respond.
