4.91 out of 5 average rating, 11 reviewsWinnecook Lake House
The house was an amazing location! We thoroughly enjoyed the sunrises & sunsets while grilling dinners in the evenings! The house was very clean and Robert was a great host. I mess him to ask if there was an axe on site. He responded that there wasn’t but that he would get firewood for us the next morning. It was so awesome to sit around the fire at night and hear the loons calling. It was very relaxing. We had to travel at least an hour to do the site seeing we wanted to do but we expected that. Overall was great and I’d recommend the house to others!!

Absolutely recommend, terrific spot, very calm and peaceful. Gena's house met our every need, everything was easy to access. The location was very near Belfast Maine, nice community with great restaurants and beautiful waterfront scenery. We'd rent again sometime for sure.

Right from the beginning of the booking, the experience was exceptional. Communication was great, house was perfectly set-up, clean and peaceful! All of the amenities, furniture, and furnishings in the home were perfect for a lake house! Little details were thought of by the hosts —even a bouquet of flowers. Highly recommend this space for families who want a peaceful and spread out home for their family but also great spaces to bring everyone together. Truly an exceptional experience in all areas.

Ohhhh my goodness. What a hidden slice of heaven! Yes…there is a 5 mile trek down a bumpy dirt road, but don’t let that deter you, once you pull in the driveway…you’ll understand it was well worth it. The main house and two tiny houses were completely stocked. There wasn’t anything that wasn’t there. Everything was cleaned and well maintained and in great working order. There was plenty of space for our three families to spread out. If you’re looking for a peaceful get away…this is it. We would definitely look into this place again!!!!!!

Beautiful and cozy place. Had a great stay. Since we visited during Fall season, the place was peaceful and full of Fall colors. Acadia national park is nearby and has some great places to visit during leaf peeping time.

Had a fantastic family gathering and will definitely book again in the future if needed. Great location. We enjoyed the space even though it was winter and we didn’t use the outdoor space. I imagine a summer visit would be fabulous!

Apartment in Tremont
4.89 out of 5 average rating, 82 reviewsAldernest Loft -MDI -walk across the lawn to shore
The place was very beautiful. Its a perfect location for stay if you are planning to visit Acadia National Park. The place itself was very clean and well maintained. Kathleen was very helpful and responded quickly to our questions. They also have access to the shore at a 2 min walk which is a good spot to hangout during sunrise and sunset.

4.93 out of 5 average rating, 45 reviews"The Overlook" Studio Apartment on Molasses Pond
I enjoyed a recent 2 night stay at Naomi’s place, and there was much to love about it! While it was definitely a hike to and from Bar Harbor, returning back to the privacy & peacefulness of this property in the evening made it absolutely worth while. Above all we greatly appreciated how clean the unit was upon arrival. The beautiful sunset views and access to kayaks to enjoy the pond were a major plus. The accommodations were exactly what we were looking for, and we’d definitely stay with Naomi again next time we visit the area!

Apartment in Hope
4.97 out of 5 average rating, 39 reviewsHighfields Dahlia Farm
We had a great stay! Beautiful, private and quiet surroundings. Hosts are very friendly. Apartment was very comfy and clean. Would definitely stay there again and recommend to others. Owner provided a book of recommendations for the area and also talked to us and provided recommendations or answered our questions. It was dahlia season and a beautiful vase of dahlias welcomed us in the apartment. Allowed us to walk through the dahlia garden and also talked to me about the garden as I also love and grow dahlias.

Apartment in Ellsworth
4.96 out of 5 average rating, 220 reviewsFar From the Maddening Crowd
This is a great place to stay, even better than it appears in the photos. It was not just clean, it was immaculate - and for an extremely observant nurse - that was awesome. The unit had easy access with a slight gradient path and only two steps - which was very helpful for us as seniors. The firm bed was very comfortable. Barbara was responsive and thought of everything, including having delicious specialty coffee for us - Thanks. She even had a cooler in the closet for us to use when we went to Acadia National Park. Like I said, she truly thought of everything. If we return to this area of Maine, we would love to stay again. We enjoyed our stay.

We loved our week long stay! The cabin is awesome and location is perfect. We spent time at Bar Harbor and Acadia. The lake is beautiful and so peaceful. John and Maria were great.

Alan is very welcoming and helpful. The lights and electronics are all very efficient and eco-friendly. And what an amazing bonus, to have top-class music fifty steps from our door! Gorgeous views of Cadillac Mountain, all lovely. Acadia is an hour away, Blue Hill Peninsula has lots going on, and Bucksport and Deer Isle are a short drive away. We will visit again. Thank you, Alan!

Had a great time. The house was clean and orderly. We had easy access to Bar Harbor and Acadia National Park, they were only 30-40 minutes away. We also enjoyed the very short walk to the water front to enjoy the views and the cool breeze off the water we even saw a lobster boat one evening! Definitely would recommend and stay here again!

Cottage in Eastbrook
4.94 out of 5 average rating, 17 reviewsTraditional charm on Molasses Pond
Camp Chickadee was a beautiful and peaceful retreat. Greatly enjoyed the scenery and wildlife of Molasses Pond. Instructions and information for the stay, check-in and check-out were very clear and Ron was proactive in reaching out prior to stay. Appreciated the local recommendations for the area, as well as the kayaks for exploring the pond. Was a great base for exploring Acadia National Park while having a scenic and private retreat to come back to at the end of the day. Looking forward to visiting Eastbrook again in the future!

Cottage in Newport
4.88 out of 5 average rating, 43 reviewsCozy Waterfront Cottage on Sebasticook Lake
Cute and tidy. Lovely little place. Victoria & Ken have included every imaginable item that will make your stay comfortable. Extremely well supplied kitchen, blankets and fans galore to cover all season use. Beds and furniture are comfortable and well placed. Scenery is fantastic. The only thing I can think of that could use a little bit of attention is there is no walkway- it’s only grass. So mud or icy conditions would be a bit challenging. We HIGHLY recommend this quiet, beautiful location, spotlessly clean, and well cared for place. And the hosts are great!

Cottage in Ellsworth
4.93 out of 5 average rating, 120 reviewsCottage on the lake
Kurt and Jackiee were incredibly helpful and friendly. We loved staying at their cozy little cottage that had great views of the nearby lake! Would recommend to others looking to stay in a more secluded area that is still a good distance from Acadia National Park.

Cottage in Dedham
4.93 out of 5 average rating, 104 reviewsMy Blue Heaven
Debbie's place was lovely! Incredibly beautiful area, comfortable and cozy living room and good location. Both Bangor and Acadia aren't too far which is quite nice. The one downside is that the place is not within delivery distance for restaurants. But it's only a 20 minute drive to Ellsworth so it is easy to drive to restaurants! Would definitely stay there again.

Deb's place was perfection. We will be back in the summer to enjoy the lake and town of Ellsworth. Everthing in the house was tidy and worked properly. Perfect getaway, quiet spot.

Our family had a lovely stay at the Lupine Cottage. Such a peaceful spot. We enjoyed getting out on the water in the kayaks and sitting out in the Adirondack chairs listening to the loons and barred owls call. Nice central location for exploring Acadia and the mid coast. Thanks Kim & Stacy for the precious memories!
