About this property

Chic intown house convenient to city amenities and Acadia National Park

This cute three bedroom, one bathroom house is set back from the road in a quiet residential neighborhood, easy walking distance to downtown, or ride your bike to Sand Beach and Acadia National Park's carriage roads. Enjoy the sunny deck for grilling, or the covered front porch at the end of the day. This is a small but comfortable house that sleeps five in one Queen bed and three Twins.

This house is within walking distance to Bar Harbor Village, plus sports fields, a golf course, Sieur des Monts Spring (home of Acadia Wild Gardens), several beaches and the Shore Path, our YMCA, two movie theaters, one of which also hosts live entertainment, restaurants, and the Island Explorer free bus shuttle system that will take you to all areas of Mount Desert Island.

We have done our best to provide a very comfortable gathering place to rest at the end of your adventures in Acadia National Park.

Great location for Bar Harbor and Acadia
Cute home in a great location. Loved using the back entrance to Acadia. Owner was quick to address any issues. Would certainly come back again.

Great in-town location
We had a great stay at this adorable house. We walked to shops and restaurants and only got in our car to go on hikes and explore the island. Please note that if you have mobility issues that the bedrooms are all on the second floor and the bathroom is on the first floor. Not a problem for us but be aware. We would gladly stay here again!

Nice little walk into town--loved the porch!
We really enjoyed our stay at this property. It's a short walk into town that helps you burn off some of that great ice cream + lobster! We also discovered that the Sand Beach bus line passes right by this property on its way back into town, which cuts out walking time if you're tired from hiking in Acadia.

Super convenient to Acadia
Nice, well-equiped home. Perfectly situated for our needs, 15 minute drive to the top of Cadillac Mtn and short walk to downtown Bar Harbor. Owner very speedy in responding to our questions. Only drawback was the beds, older and not very comfortable. Living room needed dusting. None of this would keep me from renting this home again, though.
