This was one of the best properties we ever stayed in. Well appointed. Lots of room. And clean! Any questions the owner answered ensuring we would love our stay and we did! Great location for relaxing but close enough to Acadia for hiking and adventures and to Southwest for dinners and more!

I cannot say enough good things about the entire experience renting Seawall from Katie. The communication with her was top notch and she could not be nicer, or more helpful. She worked around our tricky schedule and ahad a lot of great suggestions for our stay. Besides Katie though, the house was perfect for our group. Traveling with my wife and myself were our 30 year old daughter, her 21 month old daughter, and my 85 year old father in law. We had plenty of space and never felt like we were on top of each other. Katie also had a pack and play for the toddler to sleep in, a great highchair, and a little umbrella stroller that we used a few times throughout the week. The house is on a wooded lot and the deer come daily to graze. It was awesome to see them every day. Everything was very clean and the kitchen was very well stocked with everything you'll need for home cooked meals. We used the grill, and it was a nice gas Weber grill. The front porch had a couple of comfy chairs to sit and wait for the deer to come by, or just to catch a few rays! In the backyard, there was a table and chairs if you want to eat ouside. The home is about a 25 minute drive to Bar Harbor, but it is located in a really quiet area and that was really nice. It is an easy drive into town, and also (even withthe construction) to Ship Harbor Trail and the Bass Harbor Lighthouse. All in all, if you are considering this place, book it before someone else does!! You won't regret it.

Spent a week with family and coming/going visitors and friends. This house was simply peaceful, clean, comfortable and a perfect spot to set out from and return to -- not too far from town but far enough to be off the beaten path. Lovely inside and out -- and plenty of room, supplies, etc. for our sometimes bigger sometimes smaller numbers.

We had 5 in our group. We had lots of space, our own bedrooms and i think we used every room in the place. Nice hiking trails and lighthouse in 5 to 10 minute drive and only a 1/2 hour from Acadia and Bar Harbor. Communication and arrival/departure instructions were clear and easy to follow.

We had a lovely stay at this home. We were 2 adults and an infant. The home had a Graco pack and play where our baby slept, as well as a high chair and stroller (we didn’t try the stroller). The kitchen was well equipped with cooking supplies and basic items such as salt/pepper and olive oil. We would definitely come again!

Absolutely lovely and roomy property. There is an ocean view although you have to walk or drive approximately a quarter mile for ocean access. The host was responsive and easy to communicate with. There were so many thoughtful amenities throughout the property. I would absolutely stay here again and recommend this house to anyone considering visiting the island!
