Kid-friendly vacation rentals in Islesboro

We felt like at home. The house is located in a private property with swimming pool and tennis courts. It’s very clean and very peaceful. Just a clarification about the description : there’s no bathroom in the basement. Then if you come with elderly people or very young kids, it could be annoying. If you like cooking, the kitchen is very well equipped. We´ll keep a very good memory of our stay in Ducktrap Retreat during the colorful foliage season.

We absolutely loved our stay, the house is very private and comfy. The master bathroom and kitchen were both really nice. Beds are very comfy as well. I would definitely recommend this place to anyone

All the previous reviews indicated we would love this location, the setting, the caring of the host....we were inspired to join Airbnb to just be able to stay here!!! The beauty of the surroundings is remarkable and we admire the care taken to keep it in its refined natural state. We are so thankful we took the description and reviews to heart! We now have another great Maine memory!

Simply magical! Cozy and fun space. We enjoyed watching eagles and ospreys fish, seals pop their heads up, and even an adorable family of foxes from the comfort of the living room! Kitchen had all necessities for cooking most meals at home. A nice trail for walking down the road and an awesome beach where the kids threw stones and searched for seaglass each afternoon. We were all sad to leave!

My family and I had a lovely stay at Dean’s place. It’s just as depicted in the photos with gorgeous ocean views inside and outside. Our two boys had a great time wandering the shoreline hunting for treasure and exploring Acadia daily. We enjoyed our coffee on the deck & even saw a bald eagle one morning! We’d love to return when the boys are older and make use of the kayaks!

We had an excellent 5-night stay, with three adults and three young children. The house is very nice, and the location, right on the water, is excellent. The grounds are kept immaculate. The location is very private, except for the additional AirBnB rental unit downstairs, which detracts only a little bit. There is a great park with a playground only a three minute walk from the house, great for young kids. Highly recommended, would definitely stay here again.

We enjoyed staying at the Barn. Easy access very private and quiet. Very good connectivity.

The accommodations were wonderful! Very well decorated, comfy beds and an amazing shower! There is a full kitchen with everything you would need! Ty is an amazing and super nice host! He provided fantastic recommendations for places to eat and things to do while visiting the area. Highly recommend!

Robert’s place was the perfect getaway for me calm, quiet, and peaceful. Everything was perfect, the space was cozy and neat, it had everything I needed for a few days away. Quick drive to the harbor with lots to do if one chooses. Hoping to make it back there soon.

As described! Located right behind Farnsworth Museum and walking distance to Main St. Had everything we needed in the kitchen, bedroom and bathroom. Rosemary was very prompt in responding to questions. We had total privacy with easy parking. Nice upper deck for breakfast and a sitting area in the yard below. Main bed was super comfy. There’s a daybed in living room. (However, the daybed mattress may not be comfy for an adult.)

Michelle’s place was awesome! I came up for a quick visit with my parents for Father’s day wknd and Michelles place was perfect for me and my pup! The apartment was spotless, great amenities, and the bed and furniture were incredibly comfortable. Highly recommend Michelles place!

The apartment was very comfortable, clean and spacious, and in a cool neighborhood. Check in and check out were both easy. Diane is a great host, friendly and responsive. She even put out chairs and a little table on the roof deck outside the kitchen door, and we enjoyed getting some fresh air, looking out at the water and watching the sunset. Being right on Main Street was really fun, and a welcome change from those secluded cabins in the woods! It is a short walk to Traci's for a great breakfast, and we loved being "regulars" at Rollie's down the street for beer and cider on tap, and a couple of suppers too. Great stay in wonderful Maine!

If you’re looking for a peaceful, safe, clean, well-stocked and adorable place to stay in mid-Maine, I 100% recommend! It’s a quick drive to Camden which is chock full of restaurants, shops and a view of the water. It’s also a perfect central place to drive up or down the coast on your adventures. Cat was a great host and was able to answer any questions I had.

Pam’s place is wonderful. There is a lake behind the house, down a steep hill. It was a nice surprise! This place is a gem! It was nice to have a stove to cook breakfast and dinner. We will stay here if/when we make it back. Thank you, Pam!

We enjoyed staying in the Treehouse. The apartment is sweet and Mia and Bob provided some unexpected treats-cider, chocolate, coffee, cookies. They were very responsive and available. We would certainly recommend. The peaceful, beautiful setting was perfect.We would definitely return.

We enjoyed our time here. Brenda was very responsive and helped us out when we needed accommodations pretty short notice. The area is private and peaceful, it was just what we needed to rest up and recharge for busy traveling days.

The Owl’s Nest is a great place to stay and explore the coast in Maine. We stayed for a whole week and had a blast each day. Acadia is about an hour and half drive away and there are a bunch of trails to do much closer by as well. JoDee and her family are gracious hosts and were extremely helpful and attentive to all we needed during our stay. I even used this place as a jumping off point to go to Baxter State Park one morning. The bnb itself is exactly as described, and served all our (two people) purposes exceptionally well. Would definitely recommend staying here to other folks and wouldn’t mind returning again.

My family and I were very excited about visiting Acadia National Park. This location is close to the park (about 10-15 min driving). We stay in the large room for six people. The place is good for a group who can sleep closely (our kids slept next to each other in the two beds and the couch), also keep in mind there is only one restroom. Having a kitchen to cook our meals is always a plus. The common areas are very good. We used the hot tub, the fireplace and the grill. Everything was great! Arthur is an excellent remote host, quickly answering all our questions. I recommend this place for families willing to visit Acadia.

Brian’s place was very clean and walking distance to everything in downtown Bar Harbor. Note to guests: apartment is on the second floor up a fairly steep flight of steps.

We rented both the Toddy House and Rocky House for a week for our family of 12. The houses were as described and in pristine condition. We loved the fact that they were close together, so the late night group could stay up socializing, while the children could be put to bed without distraction. The Toddy House had a pool table which provided lots of late night entertainment. It also had a large open common area to accommodate our group, and we spent a lot of time on the screened porches. We really liked the access to the water with the dock, the canoes and kayaks, and the super cool fire ring. We are the type of family that asks a lot of questions, and Mark was quick to answer and take care of any questions or issues we had. We spent a great deal of time at Acadia, and while the drive was about 45 minutes to get there, it was not a problem at all. We would definitely return to 3Havens if we decided to take another vacation in this area. Mark and Laurie were excellent hosts.

Lovely stay in a cozy place during a harrowing move. Cozy place provided just what we needed.

We stayed at a few of Spencer's places while our child was at Bowdoin college. The places are lovely and convenient and made visiting our child a pleasure.

What a beautiful location and house. There’s nothing better than sitting in the living room or front porch and being able to see the Belfast Bay. The house is very clean and neat. Beds are comfortable, shower is very hot. Don’t miss the sunrise in the mornings. Overall this is one of our favorite places we have stayed in Belfast.

Our multi-generational family enjoyed Marianne's place very much and we loved the location with easy access to a coffee shop and ice cream parlor on the ground floor. The views were great from the penthouse, but there was not a way to enjoy them other than standing at a window. We wished for a balcony where we could better experience the harbor, but otherwise the place was perfect. Thanks for hosting! We would happily return.
