About this farm stay rental

The Sea Captain’s House is an excellent choice for multi family or large groups. Conveniently located in Southwest Harbor and just minutes to Acadia National Park. Easy, quick annd walkable into the village of Southwest Harbor.

The fully stocked kitchen with dinnerware for 14 has all stainless steel appliances; large refrigerator, 5-stove top gas burners, convection and regular ovens, dishwasher, microwave, coffee maker, crock pot and stainless food prep table. Seating for 5 at the kitchen bar allows you to enjoy your company, while leaving enough space to move around the kitchen to prepare meals and cook. Bluetooth stereo system and cocktail station included. Just off the kitchen is a half bath and enclosed washer and dryer for guests to use.

The main house living room has heartwarming hardwood flooring with couch seating for 12. Double patios doors overlooking the back yard lead outside to the deck and BBQ area. Shelves are stocked with games, cards, puzzles, and a 65" smart Roku TV for movie nights or rainy days.

All three bedrooms in the main house are located upstairs and each one has extra blankets and pillows. The master bedroom is complete with a king size bed, ceiling fan, 65” Roku TV, and a balcony overlooking the mountains, Norwood cove, and most mornings a magnificent sunrise over the Atlantic ocean. The master bath has a corner shower, a deep claw foot bathtub and a granite vanity with plenty of storage under the single sink.

Outside on the back deck is a picnic table and patio seating for 14, the back deck is the perfect place to soak up the sun, entertaining friends at sunset or stay out late to watch the stars. The quaint and covered front porch is a great place for morning coffee while observing small town life on Mount Desert Island.

Accessible from the back deck and above the garage is the two bedroom, full bath and kitchen suite. Amazing sunrise views over Norwood cove from the living room and kitchen make it easy to relax. The separate suite adds a lot of privacy for multi-family groups but remains easy to facilitate everyone hanging out together for dinner or a movie night in the main house.

For safety and security, I have Ring video doorbells located, outside, each, entrance to my house. Happy to share access with you during your visit.

I invite my family and friends to vacation at my home and I hope all who stay, enjoy Vacationland as much as I do. I’m sending an open invitation to your family. See you in the Summah!

Located within easy walking distance to town of Southwest Harbor and an easy drive to Bar Harbor and Acadia park. Zane had good communication with us.

Our family had a wonderful time visiting Maine, specifically Acadia NP and Bar Harbor areas. This house is easy-to-get-to, but away from the crowds of the park and Bar Harbor, but we were able to access both with ease. Zane, our host recommended several beautiful hikes near the house that we very much enjoyed. The house was clean with plenty of beds, showers, seats (couches and table) to meet our needs. We will return!

This house was very convenient to Acadia NP and Bar Harbor. It had plenty of room for our party of 4 adults and 3 kids. The beds were comfortable, kitchen was well stocked, and there was plenty of seating. Our grandkids loved the games! The arrangement of the bedrooms with a separate entrance from outside on the back deck for the two bedrooms over the garage was unusual. Good to know for those families with many young children. I would highly recommend you bring earplugs as the traffic on Main Street was loud at night. With the A/C window units (which we were thankful for), the windows couldn't be completely closed to help lessen the road noise. The first floor doesn't have A/C but there are fans which helped with our July visit. Zane was super responsive when things needed attention. He gave us restaurant recommendations which were great!

Zane helped us immensely for local information and he was available always. Great house for multiple young families with main house and apt above garage. It was helpful to have window ac units in all bedrooms since it was a little warm during our week. Walking distance to downtown with ice cream shops and coffee houses. Because the house is on the road-there is a lot of car noise at night but always felt safe.

Property was perfect for multi generation group. There was plenty of space for privacy, but communal areas fit everyone. It was right on main road leading into Southwest Harbor about 20 min from Bar Harbor and 25 into Acadia depending where you are headed. It was really nice to be away from Bar Harbor crowds and being close to Echo Lake (5 min) was perfect for our toddlers and the grandparents. Highly recommend and Zane was attentive throughout stay.

First, the area is very beautiful. We thought the house was a little further off the road, but it was a little too close. Road traffic was heard in the house. The house was clean, but it does show somewhere in tear. The kitchen was well stocked with needed items. The week we stayed. The weather was warmer than normal. The owner installed window air conditioners to help with the heat. He was very responsive to any requests that we had. The outdoor decks are very nice. The yard and landscaping along with the fire pit could use, a little more attention as far as the vacation goes. We had a wonderful time and a really good experience.
