We absolutely loved our stay. Everything you could ask for is here. Private. Quiet. Access to a gorgeous lake for swimming or fishing. We stayed on property for the first 2 days of our week long stay simply because we were able to decompress and have fun too. Don’t hesitate on this house, you’ll regret it.

Wonderful setting. Quiet and private. Not too far from town and we loved the house and lake.
We had a few issues with brownouts after the 2nd day possibly due to a storm that came through.
We'd definitely stay here again!

Close to Acadia, nice down town, beautiful lake for swimming, fishing and kayaking. We had a wonderful time.

The lake location is incredible and so peaceful and the water is crystal clear. There are 2 docks with seating, 2 kayaks and a canoe. We could hear the loons in the morning and evening and saw an eagle. The house is comfortable and just as pictured. The furniture is all cozy and the kitchen is well equipped. The owner is very responsive and turns out she lives next door. We would highly recommend this place!

We enjoyed the stay. The cottage was just perfect for our party size. Would stay here again. The lake location was amazing and the owner was very informative. We loved how everything was there and ready for use.
The home does need some attention. The hall bath shower leaked onto to the floor all the time while in use. We had to keep towels down to keep from having a soaked floor. The house needs to have some refreshes done. Musty smells. The upstairs beds need to have new or better mattresses placed.
5.0
We had a fantastic two-week stay by the lake. The cottage is in a great location with easy access to Acadia and the surrounding area, however there is so much to do right at the cottage you may never want to leave. The cottage was well stocked with everything we needed and communication with the owner Karin was great. Can’t wait to come back!
5.0
We picked this property in the hopes of finding some quiet relaxation on our vacation. This little spot did not disappoint! It's wonderfully secluded and peaceful and yet conveniently located to Bar Harbor and Acadia. Downtown Ellsworth is a gem to discover if you don't feel like making the trip into Bar Harbor.
The weather didn't cooperate, so we didn't get to take advantage of the kayaks, canoe, or swimming, but that didn't diminish the experience at all!
If you want privacy with a lovely view to stare off into, quiet nature to enjoy a book, or a short scenic drive to all sorts of activities, this is the place for you!

This is a very nice house situated on the south shore of Branch Lake. It was well appointed and the supplies at the house are excellent.
We had lousy weather and couldn’t take full advantage of the waterfront amenities.
The host, Karin, was great to work with. We asked how to get Netflix with the existing Dish network setup, and the next day the old tv was replaced with a smart television.
The house is a pleasant place to stay.

We had a fantastic time here! Karin's house is very comfortable. It has plenty of space to spread out, all the kitchen utensils you would need, games and puzzles, kayaks and a canoe with life jackets, and the location is super private and quiet. The stars were amazing over the lake! Branch Lake really is pristine. It's so clear and calm. We would absolutely stay here again and highly recommend this rental and Branch Lake.

Wonderful home and very attentive host. It is a beautiful quiet relaxing place. It is definitely a favorite with us. The location near Acadia and Bar Harbor is great too.

Paradise
We have rented homes and cottages all over the world. The setting for this cottage was the best we have ever experienced. The waterfront area was perfect for swimming, fishing, and kayaking. The beds were comfortable and the thermostats in every room gave us comfort in every part of the house.
What a delightful cottage in a particularly friendly part of Maine.
4.0
It was a nice place on beautiful lake.
It was a beautiful lake but was a little further from Bar Harbor than expected. If you want a private, secluded environment, it’s perfect.
Didn’t care for the smell of moth balls. Lingered in air and on clothes. Would recommend some minor cosmetic touch ups on paint, especially up stairs where there were spots not painted at all. But overall, a nice house.

Summer stay
House was great and as advertised. Very quiet community on nice lake. The stay offered a secluded lake community and activities in Ellsworth, Bar Harbor and Acadia. Karin (Owner) was responsive and accommodating.

Wonderful week
My family and I had a wonderful week at the cottage. Karin and her family provided everything we needed and were especially attentive on first night when storm knocked out power for a few hours. Very peaceful lake combined with a clean and fully stocked home resulted in a memorable vacation.

Great Outdoors

Beautiful and Quiet Location
The location of this home is beautiful as it is steps away from the pristine and quiet lake. The sunrises and sunsets were spectacular. It is the best of both worlds as in the early morning we would kayak and swim in the lake and then we went to Acadia hiking and we also biked the Schoodic Peninsula. It was nice to return later in the day to the peace and tranquility of this lake front home. We also enjoyed using the fire pit and making s'mores. The owners are very friendly and respond quickly to any questions you might have. I would highly recommend staying at this property.

Quiet and peaceful yet close to everything the region has to offer.
My sisters and I had a wonderful get away at this gem of a property. The house was clean, comfortable, and well appointed with everything we needed. A glitch with the TV was handled promptly by the owner with no disruption to our plans. The lake and lakefront were spectacular with a gentle grade from the house to the lake (so many properties have a steep grade!), outdoor seating, and docks. Even though it was quite cool during our week, I took a kayak out for a very enjoyable ride. There's a lovely lakefront park right down the road that made for good walks. We spent most of our days exploring Acadia and Ellsworth and returned to great dinners and quiet evenings in this lovely setting. We definitely hope to return!

Beautiful property
We had a great stay! So relaxing. A nice quiet, clean, scenic property that's just far enough away from the busy tourism of bar harbor for quiet and privacy but close enough to be an easy drive to fun spots! Owners are very responsive and kind.
