We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Kim and Doug's place! This place was extremely comfortable and immaculate when we checked in, couldn't have asked for more. It's located in a quiet, residential neighborhood street, just off Cottage Street but still very convenient to walk downtown for shopping, restaurants and exploring. We had everything we needed here and really appreciated the washer/dryer for taking care of hiking clothes after a long day out in Acadia. Enjoyed the early mornings being able to walk around town with no crowds and enjoyed the proximity to many great restaurants so we could walk everywhere. Communication with owners was great and they provided a very comfortable, well-cared for place with thoughtful touches (extra extension cords, blankets (we didn't need them), full kitchen with utensils, etc., plenty of towels). Would stay here again for sure and no hesitation to recommend it - lovely apartment with attentive, gracious hosts. A nice find in Bar Harbor for sure!

First of all, the location was fantastic! Dead center in town but off on a small side street, we had our own parking space alloted only to us. We were equidistance between the downtown boat docks & the main shopping & restaurant areas.

When I first viewed this property to potentially book our stay, I was skeptical when I saw there were hundreds of reviews and they were all 10/10. But all of the reviews were accurate. It is in the perfect location, which is quiet and out of the way. But it's close enough to downtown that you can walk to everything. In addition, the house was stocked with miscellaneous items (foil, salt and pepper, pasta, pasta sauce, first aid kit) so that you didn't have to go to the supermarket immediately upon arrival. My wife and I are definitely planning on coming back and staying here again.

We could easily walk to everything in Bar Harbor and were a short drive from Acadia National Park.
We enjoyed kayaking & biking with Coastal Kayaking Tours and hiking on Cadillac Mountain. We had coffee and breakfast around the corner at Slice of Eden.
The home had everything we needed for our 4 night stay. We were happy to have AC in the bedroom, although the window unit was a bit noisy turning on & off during the night.
I would recommend this rental and would gladly stay there again!

This is our second time at this property; we liked it so much that we came back. The location is great (it saves a lot of money not to have to pay the city on-street parking fees). The apartment was immaculately clean and well furnished. The owner stocked all kinds of things you may have forgotten. Communication with the owner was pleasant. It was a quiet, comfortable place. Plenty of space. We highly recommend!

My husband and I spent four days in Bar Harbor at this great place. The location was perfect. We simply walked a few blocks down into town. The unit was well equipped. We were well rested to start the day thanks to a comfortable bed. We were very thankful for the off the road parking too. The unit is one of several in the converted home so you may hear the footsteps of those upstairs, but again, this place has all the great features for any Bar Harbor rental. We would recommend and stay again in a heartbeat. Thanks for a wonderful stay.

The property was very clean and had everything you need to have a comfortable stay. The kitchen was sufficiently stocked and included some spices. The property is in walking distance to downtown Bar Harbor and you can walk to the grocery store. The bed was comfortable and the seating on the front porch was great for reading, knitting, and enjoying a drink of wine or ice tea. There was a nice selection of games.

We enjoyed our 2-week stay in this spacious one-bedroom apartment! Clean, well-outfitted, a short walk to everything Bar Harbor has to offer (ex: <1 block to grocery store) and a few minutes drive away from 4 ways to enter Acadia (important depending upon where one wants to go in the Park to avoid traffic). Having a second 'living room' was very handy - allowed for Zoom calls and working in privacy. We had 1 question upon arrival and Doug answered within minutes - question resolved! We would definitely stay there again!!!

The best VRBO site I have rented.
I recommend more TVs.
Toiletries would also help.
Two thumbs up to our hosts.

Amazing how close to Acadia national park, yet in the heart of bar harbor! I most definitely recommend this get away house to anyone visiting the area!! Thank you so much!

We have stayed so many times at this lovely property it has become our home away from home.
It’s close to everything and only a few miles to Acadia National Park .

The house was very clean and well stocked with all essentials. The owner was so nice and easy to chat with when needed. The best location in Bar Harbor with easy walking access to all downtown has to offer - restaurants and shops, the grocery store, Bar Island and the harbor. Very convenient to drive to Acadia trailheads. Absolutely can’t beat having the dedicated driveway spot as it seemed like it would be pretty difficult to find street parking. We hope to come back soon, what an amazing vacation!

Very comfortable apartment, well stocked kitchen (including a much appreciated bag of Starbuck's Coffee) and bathroom (plenty of towels and t.p., bug spray, first aid kit). Quiet neighborhood only a few blocks from Main St and the harbor, grocery store just around the corner.

This apartment is located just off Cottage Street which is part of the Bar Harbor shopping and dining area, and just a few blocks from the wharf. It is 5 minutes from the entrance to the park. The kitchen is well stocked and the furnishings are comfortable. There are 3 units in the house and our friends stayed in an adjoining unit. That gave us both plenty of privacy while making joint ventures convenient. We would stay here again.

The location can’t be beat! It is literally steps to downtown…and to the grocery store, which is highly convenient. The apartment is gorgeous and squeaky clean! We especially appreciated the grill, the lobster pot and the washer/dryer. Each late afternoon we enjoyed a cocktail and people watching on the front porch. I miss the cool breezes already!

Five star location in Bar Harbor
Kim and Doug's apartment was perfect for our needs - centrally located, immaculate, well stocked, and spacious. The pictures do not do the unit justice. I suffered a leg injury and was relegated to a knee scooter, making getting around problematic but the house's location made it easy - only 1/2 mile from virtually all of downtown BH. We were convenient to Acadia as well. Check in was a breeze, communication was almost immediate, and they were very flexible and accommodating to our changing needs pre-trip. We highly recommend this unit and its hosts. We would definitely stay here again!

Wonderful place in Bar Harbor!
This apartment was ideal for my wife and I for our week in Bar Harbor and Acadia National Park. The place is very clean and spacious, with furniture and appliances that are virtually all new. Access to the apartment is easy, with a dedicated parking space in the back that is off the street, and the hosts, Kim & Doug, were available and responsive. There is a temperature-controlled thermostat for warmth as well as ceiling fans, air conditioners, and easy-open windows to stay cool. Guests are provided with everything they need to prepare meals, including spices. The apartment's location also made it easy to enjoy hiking, biking, and restaurants throughout Acadia -- near Bar Harbor, Southwest Harbor, and Northeast Harbor. What a wonderful place to stay!

Week Stay in May
This property is perfect! My wife and I spent seven nights in late May. The apartment was spacious, updated and very clean. The hosts have the apartment very well stocked with cooking utensils, spices and coffee. The full size washer and dryer were very helpful, as we were spending two weeks traveling in Maine. The apartment is within walking distance to grocery shopping, gift shops and restaurants. The location is very important, as parking in Bar Harbor can be a challenge. We will not hesitate to stay here again.

Great little apartment/ great location
Had a wonderful time in Bar Harbor staying at this location. Apartment was a perfect size for two of us. Worked out perfect as a two bedroom when you use the room with the couch bed as a separate bedroom. Place was clean, stocked well, and any communication with the owners was answered quickly. Location is just blocks from Main Street making everything easy to walk to.
My only complaint was the TV/internet situation. The TV was a Roku streaming TV only. If you wanted cable you would have had to use an app to sign in on your own cable TV account. I had my account hacked from doing this while on vacation elsewhere so didnt like this only option for cable. Also, the internet was incredibly slow and therefore streaming Netflix etc did not always go well. Most apps you watched froze - making it difficult to use the TV or internet. If streaming TV is the only option, the internet speed needs to be better. Maybe it was just an issue the week we were there and not normal? We were staying during beginning of November when lots of things closed down for the season, so this means we were at the apartment most early evenings and having no good TV made it a little challenging.
But overall, we enjoyed our stay here and would happily return to stay at this great apartment again.

The proximity to town is perfect!
This beautiful little home is perfect for two and is hidden enough where there is privacy but you are steps always from everything. We cooked ourselves dinner 2 nights of the 4 we stayed in town. The kitchen was stocked with everything you would need. And if not the supermarket was directly across the street. We hope to comeback and have this beautiful home to be available when we do. Thank you Doug and Kim!

Super clean & great location!
This place was the cleanest rental we’ve stayed in! That alone stood out to us. The location is PERFECT! Acadia NP Visitors Center was only 2 miles from the house...downtown was a short walking distance. I would definitely stay here again! This was the best vacation we’ve had. If you haven’t been to Maine...GO and stay at this place! You will not regret it! I❤️ME

Perfect Apartment
This was our second stay at Doug and Kim's beautiful apartment. The location is ideal, right in town--a short walk to restaurants, shops and the grocery store. The apartment was spotless with more than enough space for the two of us. It was so nice to have spices, oil, tea etc provided in the fully stocked kitchen. We had a great week and definitely plan to return.
