This place did not disappoint!! When we arrived, we were in awe of the beautiful views!! We were right on the water and enjoyed watching the tide change each day. The house was adorable and we truly loved everything about it! It is very well- maintained and we felt so relaxed and at home. We loved the location as well! Away from the crowds but super close to restaurants and other points of interest. We would Definitely stay again!

Very clean property, better sized for 4 people or families with smaller children. Water access quite difficult. Owner was easy to access, right along bus route for great access around the entire island. Quiet part of the island which was very nice.

We spent a week at Seaside Rose last week of July. Weather was perfect! It was a great location for our family to have activities near by (Island Cruises, National Park kayak rentals, hikes, restaurants) and downtime fun at the house (exploring at low tide and floating around at high tide). It’s 30 minutes to get to most spots in Acadia, but it was worth having a variety of options to explore for the week without the crowding of Bar Harbor. We went to the park several days, used the free bus option from the visitor center to avoid parking issues. The house was clean, had great views of the sunset and was perfect for our family of 4 (kids had whole upstairs)

This home was very cute in the quiet area on Bass Harbor. We did several Acadia hikes, went to Bar Harbor took the ferry to Swan’s Island and road ebikes and went to Cadillac Mt. We were pretty active and even enjoyed the rainy days. Communication and check in was easy. Local restaurants are very quaint with good food. The downside is the overall comfort. The master bed caused back pain for my husband and I. He slept on the sofa. You can feel the springs when you lay down. The decorative chairs in the LR feel like boards. The view is great with seating arranged around windows, but relaxing at the end of a long hike did not happen. We had our 3 sons 15+ with us and we could not all be in the living room in comfort. We often separated and and all went to different rooms to lay down. We tried to keep busy and only sleep and make meals in the house. The sofa is very comfortable, but not big enough for 5. I did appreciate the views out the windows and the well stocked kitchen/bathroom. Overall, if there were some comfort changes, I would consider staying again. If you have any type of back or neck issues, it could be an issue for you. I am currently home and icing my back.
