About this property

Maine Farmhouse 2023: 3 night min May-Labor Day, Mon & Friday check in/out

Smack dab between Northeast Harbor (5 min) and Bar Harbor (10 min) this fully renovated Maine home has all the comforts of a new home with all the charm of a historic maine farmhouse. Giant tub and rain shower downstairs, spa shower with dual water heads upstairs, fully stocked chef's kitchen, granite fireplace are among the features to make your stay comfortable.

The home is conveniently located on Sound drive on a 1.5 wooded acre lot with a beautiful flower garden, mature lilac bushes and crabapple trees. A short walk along Sound Drive to the entrance of the giant slide trail brings you directly into Acadia National Park for hiking and a five minute ride in either direction brings you to Eagle Lake or Upper Hadlock for biking. Acadia at your fingertips!

After a day of hiking and popovers at the Jordan Pond House, put your lobsters on to boil while the family gathers around the square dining table (seats 8, dishes, silver and linens for 12-16) then its over to the fireplace for drinks, snacks and games or choose a movie from the huge dvd selection... A perfect end to a perfect day in Acadia...

3 bedrooms with 2 queen size beds and 1 full size bed and gorgeous linens sleep two each and share a full bathroom. The upstairs bedroom has its own half bath and has four twin beds; the best kids room ever! An additional full bath with separate bathing area and claw foot tub with rain shower is located on the first floor.

A truly comfortable and serene home, well behaved pets will be considered.

Lovely restored farmhouse on MDI

The house served our purposes well, especially the central location and excellent kitchen and cozy living room. Two items that should be more fully described on the web are the intrusion of the loud road traffic noise and the third floor bedroom being accessed only through the second floor bedroom.

Excellent!
We were two couples touring New England from Oregon, and were just amazed at how gorgeous and well-appointed this Maine farmhouse was. It felt like the owners just stepped out for a few days - there were so many personal touches. The kitchen was amazing! Two ovens, two refrigerators and supplies galore for cooking. The bedrooms were comfy and plush - we had our choice of numerous sleeping options/areas. And the attic for kids to stay would be perfect as it has a half bath up there too. We could have stayed for weeks, it was so homey and well furnished. Yes, you can hear the road noise from the bedrooms, so bring earplugs if that might bother you. Tracey was super responsive to our inquiries. Abel's Lobster across the road was a really great restaurant1

Great girls trip
We loved the charm of this property, from the fireplace to the gardens. While this is very centrally located (10-15 min to destination in any direction), we were a bit surprised by the road noise in the front bedroom. The kitchen was fully stocked, bathroom and linens were great. We didn't realize that 2 of the bedrooms are 'walk throughs', so just something to be aware of depending on your travel group dynamics. Plenty of comfy beds, great dining area and very hot water! Tracey was very responsive during our stay.

Wonderful farm house in a national park!!!
This is such a perfect farmhouse - in a national park!!! My three sisters and I traveled from around the US to spend some time together and enjoy New England in the Fall. The gods were on our side! This house was such a nice part of our reunion. It’s quiet and peaceful, in the middle of the Maine woods. The host has done a wonderful job in making her home cozy and fun, from high-quality pillows and sheets to puzzles and games. Everything is very homey! The fireplace had a little trouble keeping the smoke outside, and the house is a little quirky, but it so charming in the layout and giving you a feel for how it would have been to live in the woods 100 years ago. I can’t wait to go back!!

About the host

Host profile image
I am a professional private chef that has recently opened a cafe in town. My home is an extension of my personality and I enjoy sharing it and its energy with fellow travelers. I have lived and worked in Northeast Harbor for almost thirty-five years and think it one of the most beautiful places on the east coast. Come find out for yourself! And come say Hi at 123 Main Street Farm to Table Cafe!

Why they chose this property

I started my career as a chef on yachts and landed in Northeast Harbor time and time again. It was so beautiful I bought a home here and recently opened a farm to table cafe in town called 123 Main Street. (123neh.com)

What makes this property unique

For me, having access to Acadia for hiking and biking during the summer and fall and cross country skiing, hot baths and crackling fires in the winter is why I love my home. I love having my friends over for dinner and games but enjoy jumping into Bar Harbor for pizza and a movie at Reel Pizza equally as much. Taking a boat out the Isleford and visiting the art gallery or poking around the shops in Northeast Harbor...it is all a true delight!
