Wishing we booked longer
We hated to have to leave. Upon arrival at the house it's in a perfect setting: quiet road but easy to get back on main route to explore the area. Inside we found everything to be super clean & tidy. Very(!!!) well stocked kitchen. I don't think there's anything missing to make, bake or cook whatever you might want to while there. Nice yard& deck space to use- we were able to enjoy each day. Kathy was great with communication prior to our arrival, also she's left some great books,maps and DVD's there on Acadia & things to see. We rate this 5++ on everything here. Hoping our travels will bring us back for more next year. Thank you Kathy for everything!

Great place to stay!
Kathy’s house was a gem on Mt Desert Island, tucked away from the crowds, yet close to Bar Harbor and the park. The house was well stocked with amenities, basically everything you need for your stay with a bonus of frozen Maine blueberries, pancake mix, butter and syrup to prepare a delicious pancake breakfast the first morning. Highly recommended for your visit in the area.

Convenient to all points of MDI
Nice and quiet location that has easy access to all points of MDI. We had Lobster rolls at Beal's in Southwest Harbor, visited the lighthouse at Bass Harbor, drove over to Bar Harbor, and thoroughly enjoyed the Park Loop road and all the hikes we took in. Eden House worked great for us giving us the much appreciated relaxation at the end of a busy day!

Eden House has many stay at home offerings but should you prefer to travel the area, we supply maps and brochures for those looking for adventures.
