We had a wonderful stay in Maine. Location is beautiful and Misty, our host was exceptional. The apartment has a fun decor and is well equipped with all of the basic necessities—as well as some thoughtful welcoming amenities. We would definitely stay there again if we come back to this area.

We had the best stay. Misty is an awesome host and gave us a lot of ideas for restaurants and things to do. We had the best view and loved watching the seals and eagles. The studio was perfect to come back and relax at after our long days out and had everything we needed. Annie was an added bonus, just loved visiting with her. Thank you again, we can’t wait to come back!!

We had a great stay! The views are absolutely beautiful.
We enjoyed a great nature show one night with seals, eagles and Ospry doing some fishing right near the dock! The location is nicely situation between Bar Harbour and the Schoodic side of Acadia. We enjoyed both. The lodging was very nice - nicely decorated, clean, cozy, and perfect for the two of us. Misty was a very welcoming host. Everything was great!
5.0
We loved this studio apartment. It had everything we needed and the views are breathtaking. It was a great home base to visit Schoodic peninsula, Bar Harbor, Stonington and more. To come home every evening to these views was amazing. We kayaked across Flanders Bay. Misty was amazing and I know we would be good friends if we lived near. Annie her Golden retriever is so sweet and was nice to have her since our dog could not
come on this trip. Would definitely stay again.

Misty’s place is a dream. The location is stunning. We enjoyed sitting out in the backyard and looking out at the Bay. It’s clean and cute, stocked with everything you might need. Misty and her dog Annie were kind and welcoming. She provided great hiking and dining recommendations. Our only regret is not booking more time! Thank you, Misty!

We took a 3rd baby moon to Maine and our stay was beyond wonderful! Misty was very helpful and kind throughout the whole process. The room is cute and homey and offers private seclusion with beautiful ocean views. My wife and I spent time cooking, laying around, and enjoying the waterfront when we weren’t exploring Acadia. Thank you again Misty and we look forward to the next time.

You know you are in the right vacation rental when your views from the rental are as good as what you see at some of the most popular tourist attractions! I can’t brag enough on this space and the hospitality of the owner, Misty.
Very comfortable king size bed. Great views from the breakfast table, which doubled as our rummy-playing table each night. You are close enough to enjoy Bar Harbor but far enough away for tranquility. We really enjoyed the very close Schoodic side of Acadia. (Beautiful sites and much less crowded.)
Misty’s suggestions for food were spot on. We especially loved fresh lobster on the wharf in Corea.
The bonus for this beautiful vacation rental is Annie, the sweetest Golden Retriever. I am mot really a “dog-person” but found myself calling for her in the yard. She is so friendly!
5-stars all around for this rental!

Misty is an incredible host . We can’t say enough about how welcoming she was and helpful in guiding us with our visit to Acadia and the surrounding area.

Misty and Annie (her dog) were the perfect hostesses. The accommodations were perfect and so peaceful. Amazing sunsets and recommendations from Misty were so appreciated. It is off the beaten path and a great place to recharge, watch a sunset and sleep for the next day’s adventure.

We have never stayed in a more beautiful location than this. From the back yard, which is completely open to guests, you can see Bar Harbor, Cadillac Mountain, tidal changes, and sunsets. From this location we visited Acadia National Park, Schoodic Peninsula and Schoodic Mountain, and made a road trip all the way to Lubec/Calais on the Canadian border. Our host Misty was very welcoming and helpful and co-host Annie (the golden retriever) was always happy to see us. The apartment was comfortable and private and we enjoyed coffee every morning while looking out at the bay. Our week passed too quickly. We would not hesitate to return.
5.0
Misty was warm and accommodating from the minute we arrived until our departure. The apartment was clean and well appointed with everything we needed. The views are amazing! We enjoyed watching the sunset each evening and it was a thrill to see Bald Eagles flying overhead. The property is located conveniently close enough drive to to Acadia and Bar Harbor. We also enjoyed the short drive to Winter Harbor and Schoodic point. We wish we had more time to enjoy the bikes and kayaks that Misty provides. We would 100% recommended this property and will definitely return if possible!

I cannot say enough good things about this property and the owner, Misty. She is by far one of the nicest people you will ever meet. She was so helpful and accommodating. Don't be worried that the rental and her house are on the same property. You have plenty of privacy. But you also have the comfort of knowing she's there if you need anything at all or have any questions. She is beyond sweet, even gave us a bottle of wine for our anniversary and ice cream on our last night there. Her dog Annie is the best, wish i could have taken her home with us! As for the house it's literally on the water. We sat out and watched the waves and seals every night. The sunsets are gorgeous. There are kayaks there to use as well. It's just minutes from Acadia on the Schoodic side which in our opinion was the best side. Schoodic point is a MUST SEE. It's about 40 minutes from the actual town of Bar Harbor, give or take depending on traffic. Bar Harbor is extremely crowded in the summer. So we were just fine being a little bit away from the congestion and crowds. You'll find everything you need on route 1 in one direction or another and Misty is very helpful with all that kind of information. We wouldn't hesitate to recommend this property. Would love to go back sometime ourselves! Thanks so much for everything Misty and Annie!

The property and host are absolutely amazing! The property has views in every direction you turn - the bay with Acadia Park and mountains in the background. You can see all of it from the guest house and the multiple vignettes Misty has set up for you; Adirondack chairs, hammock, and the dock. It is the perfect retreat from the various hiking/biking trails in the area or within a 30+ minute drive. It is situated perfectly near Acadia National park, Schoodic Peninsula, and Bar Harbor among others.
The guest house is extremely cozy and inviting. It has all the functionality you need while feeling like a soft, warm blanket on a cold day. Part of the reason this property is so special is because of Misty. She is not only incredibly knowledgeable about the area from trails to food and activities but she is the epitome of hospitable. You truly feel like you are her guest and she is sharing her home with you. Her dog, Annie, is just the sweetest bonus!

We used the stay as a launch pad into Acadia. The 45 minute drive to Bar Harbor is very scenic . The view out the back sliding glass door over the bay was beautiful. The host was wonderful. Thank you!

The studio on the water is absolutely wonderful!! After long days of hiking at nearby Arcadia, we sat outside and enjoyed the tranquil views of the water. The outdoor shower was great. Misty had helpful recommendations for nearby hikes and restaurants. One of them was The Schoodic Peninsula, which is part of Arcadia Park, was a hidden gem and very close to the studio. Great breakfast and lunch place called Gerrish in nearby "Winter Harbor."

Amazing family getaway
This was the most perfect property to wake up and go to sleep in each day before and after our adventures in Bar Harbor and Acadia National park. Spotless and well accommodated, we had everything we needed to enjoy our first post-covid cousins trip! Thank you Misty!

It was hard to leave Misty’s wonderful spot on the bay! Waking up to quiet ocean views and strolling down to the private dock and rocky beach was the best. We brought our two dogs who were able to hike in Acadia with us and Misty even checked in on them when we were out for dinner our first night, and during our 13 mile long run around schoodic peninsula which is nearby! The apartment is private with its own views of the ocean and is furnished with lots of little things. Misty is very thoughtful :) you’ll love it!

“Idyllic”, that’s our one-word description for this beautiful and peaceful home. The warm gentle breeze flowing off the bay mesmerized us and helped “recharge our batteries”. We appreciated use of the hammock, kayaks, bikes, and all of the “Kleinigkeiten” which made our stay comfortable and enjoyable. The homeowner’s reviews, advice, and helpful tips helped make the most of our brief time here at Acadia. All-in-all we enjoyed Acadia and are feeling very lucky and grateful to have stayed here.
