About this farm stay rental

We are perfectly located in quiet and lovely little Hulls Cove; less than a mile to Acadia National Park Visitor Center and the free Island Explorer shuttle, 2/10ths of a mile to the seashore, and 3 miles from Busy Bar Harbor's shops and restaurants.

Cider House Farm is a genuine treasure, a 19th. Century Maine farmhouse with a wonderful sense of history that has grown with its years. Wood beamed ceilings and pine floors blend seamlessly with modern conveniences and comforts.

Situated on one and a half peaceful acres at the end of a quiet private lane, there is lots of space to relax, watch sea gulls, inhale the wonderful mixed fragrance of pine needles and salty sea air or play outdoor games on the big lawns. It is a perfect house for large families, with room for everyone.

Neighboring Acadia National Park’s scenic carriage roads are unmatched for walking biking and horseback riding. Its breathtaking mountain trails for hiking and its lovely lakes for swimming and canoeing.

The stay was really great! The house was beautiful and the surrounding area was quiet. There was a trail a 10 minute walk from the house, and it was also possible to walk to hulls cove beach. The house was just what I wanted to introduce my friends and family to Maine. The house has preserved its historic feel. There was a lovely porch outside with room for the whole group to sit and enjoy the stars at night. Lots of bedrooms and beds for everyone, and enough bathrooms. The host was responsive and was able to come by quickly with a different coffee maker when the one that was there initially didn't work.

We enjoyed our time at the house for a family reunion. There was plenty of space indoors and outside for kids to play and to spend time together. The kitchen and dining area was very charming and caught the morning light beautifully. Easy to get to Bar Harbor and Acadia for activities.

Our stay here was absolutely perfect! We had a large group—5 adults, 6 teens, and 2 children. The house has everything we needed for an ideal stay. The kitchen is packed with everything we needed, including a crock pot which was helpful for days we just wanted to come back to dinner ready. The bedrooms are spacious and comfortable and the bathrooms are well-situated. We could all spread out and have alone time if we wanted, or easily gather in the public spaces. Would highly recommend this house for anyone looking for a comfortable stay very close to Bar Harbor!

We loved our stay at the Cider House! It was a wonderful and comfortable house to play yard and table games and gather in different rooms for family activities. The farm house feel of the kitchen was cozy and facilitated many conversations around the table and over food prep. The kitchen was well stocked with everything we needed to perpare meals, including spices and herbs. Trish was a terrific host and provided paper goods in ample supply (not common in my experience with VRBO). Some of the furniture was wobbly. We appreciated a separate bar and refrigerator for adult drinks which meant there was plenty of room in the large kitchen fridge for kid drinks and food. An atypical heat wave in Maine for us meant that the upstairs rooms were warmer than wanted. Open windows and fans (many!) in each room were helpful to circulate air, especially at night. The host notebook was helpful, including how to navigate to a closeby lake for swimming... we never would have found this without local insights found in the notebook. Trish made everything easy.

Beautiful older home, very comfortable. Bedrooms were all comfortable. We love gathering in the kitchen dining area for eating and games. The children ages 5 to 12 enjoyed exploring the house and playing in the yard. Internet was spotty at times but other than that and Beautiful vacation. Perfect location.

We had a very large family gathering for a family reunion vacation and needed a very large home to accommodate. This house did not disappoint. It was very clean and well stocked. We had 17 people and never felt that it was an overly crowded space. The location to Bar Harbor and Acadia was perfect. And the hostess was friendly and accommodating. Overall a great stay!
