My husband and I enjoyed the away-from-the-crowds location and house. The house was clean, very well supplied, had nice bedrooms/bathrooms and was close enough to Acadia Nat'l. Park sites, particularly Schoodic Point, and some decent restaurants. Although we didn't get around to riding bikes, we were impressed that bike helmets were supplied along with bikes. We enjoyed breakfast every morning at the J.M. Gerrish restaurant around the corner. Overall we had a very positive experience!

This was our second stay at this lovely home and it did not disappoint! We love the quiet side of Acadia and Sharon’s home is perfect for our family of 3! Clean and well appointed, walking distance to the cove, restaurants, grocery & the beloved five and dime! Owner provided lots of info about the area and was quick to respond to questions. Laundry onsite was great and kitchen had all we needed. We hope to stay again soon!

Our family absolutely loved our stay in Winter Harbor. The house was close to beautiful sites and fun activities and I'm not sure we've stayed in a better appointed house. Would absolutely return again and again.

We had the best trip. The house was perfect for our family of 5. It was very clean, well stocked with kitchen supplies, and anything else you could need. The location was Great! We loved being able to see the water from the house and beingso close to Scoodic. We had dinner at the Treehouse on the corner, it was Fantastic! Breakfast at JMGerrish was delicious and if you are Starbucks snob like me the espresso at Downeaster is on point! Thank You for a wonderful experience!

Property was spotless and well appointed. The only thing I would suggest is a sign at the bottom of the stairwell warning that the ceiling at the top of the stairs is extremely low! To prevent any head injuries, that should be mandatory.

This is a wonderful little house just steps from Winter Harbor. The location was perfect for exploring the area and coming back to relax and watch the water. We would definitely book this house again in the future.

Great place to stay. House was centrally located and easy in and out.
Clean and neat. A/C was super quiet, bathrooms were clean and modern. Built in 1860 so stairs were a little steep for 60’s couples. Quiet neighborhood. Overall good experience.

Wonderful little house. Perfect for our family. Had everything we needed and more. Loved the little town and close proximity to Acadia on the peninsula side. Our family enjoyed being away from the crowd at Bar Harbor, yet close to local restaurants and shops.

Great house. Small town feel.
The house was charming, well appointed with everything we could want. Nice appliances, updated bathrooms and great location. One of the best places we’ve rented. Schoodic peninsula has lots of close hikes and views of sunrise and sunset. Loved the vibe and friendliness of the town. Would love to come back!

Fall at Winter Harbor
Lovely historic home with all the necessary amenities. You can walk to the grocery store, Five & Dime store (cute), and dining. From the Master bedroom window, you can watch the lights on the harbor dance on the water. Visited Acadia NP, Bar Harbor, and went out fishing and lobstering! Was our anniversary trip with friends. Would definitely stay at this VRBO house if we get to come back....

Relaxing getaway
We loved our stay here! The house was in the perfect location for us. We had everything we needed and quickly made ourselves at home.
Winter Harbor definitely has the small-town vibe. This section of Acadia National Park is quieter & less crowded. Thanks to a Park Ranger recommendation, we went to Schoodic Point for sunset almost every evening. She did not steer us wrong.

Wonderful vacation home in Winter Harbor
Our California family of 6 stayed at this home for one week and had an excellent trip experiencing Maine for the first time. Would highly recommend to others, especially if you don’t only want to spend time in Bar Harbor area.

Excellent home
What an excellent home in such a beautiful place. Even if you are planning to spend a lot of time in Acadia, avoid the cars and traffic and ferry back and forth and use the free busses on MDI. We had a wonderful time and were super comfortable, even on some hot days, with air conditioning. Home is in a perfect location. Walk to food, coffee, and a farmers market. House is very well appointed — nothing cheap or chintzy, and everything you need is there. We will be back!

This little house is wonderful.. Everything you need to relax and enjoy a small piece of Maine
It’s a short walk to store and ready made food. You can watch the tide come in and out. Highly recommend.

Great location and walkable town
Alas, I failed to see that the only bathroom is on the first floor and all bedrooms upstairs. This didn't work for me as elderly and needing to use bathroom during night but unsafe on stairs which have an arched ceiling. Also, no running water upstairs.
