Nice place for a weekend get a way. Close to things to do.

The house was clean, comfortable, and accurately portrayed in the listing. The property owner was in timely communication with us when we asked a question. They gave great tips on local and area to do’s which to me is going above and beyond the expectation. We enjoyed our time at the house and loved the outdoor scenery. I had a great big fire lit every night!!

Really enjoyed our 4 nights at this location in late July 2023. Communication with hosts was great. Almost immediate responses to any messages. The property was great - newly refurbished, clean, decently appointed, Wi-Fi. The outdoor space is the superstar. I took coffee every morning on the deck - super peaceful and a million dollar view. A bald eagle landed on the line tree just past the inlet - which was super cool. We did a campfire one night, went out on the water twice. Mosquitos are pretty aggressive in the evening on the lawn - put bug spray on! The high and low tides are completely different - you probably have a window of high tide +/- 2 hours where you can get out in the watercraft. We got to pretty much all of Acadia - from Bass Harbor Headlight to the Schoodic Peninsula. It’s about 35-40 minutes to the main visitor center on MDI. It’s not quite 30 to the Schoodic Institute. It is remote, but WalMart is < 20 min away for any needed supplies. It was quite hot the week we were there, so the bedrooms were a little warm. There was a window AC unit in the family room. To be fair, this is probably usually not an issue. It looks well appointed for colder months with a wood burning pellet stove and an electric fireplace. I would absolutely consider returning here if I vacationed in this part of the country often.

The house is well appointed in a quiet bay in Franklin. Nice views and very quiet. The area was very tranquil. The location of the property is a longer drive to Bar Harbor than anticipated or indicated in listing.. Access to kayaks was available but the bay was shallow and it would be a struggle putting in even during high tide.

This is a beautiful, quiet, peaceful and secluded place. It has a large back porch overlooking a picturesque tidal bay. We saw deer every morning and evening. A great place to watch birds including, eagles and hawks to name a few. A great place to relax. The house was extremely clean I and well equipped. The communications from the owner were excellent and transparent. It’s a great place to experience the “real” Maine. Less than a 25 minute drive to Schoodic Peninsula - Arcadia National Park. We would definitely return for another visit.

We were a group of two couples who were planning to visit Acadia for the weekend. This home advertised 30 minutes from Acadia and access to a lake kayaks SUP boards etc. and was the perfect home for our group. Sydney and Andrew were extremely communicative, helpful and their home is immaculately clean and the modern amenities, extremely comfortable beds, and included amenities allowed us to have a wonderful weekend. My only feedback is that the listing said 30 minutes from acadia and it was closer to 37-42 minutes. Not the biggest difference but it definitely changed our plans for coming and going to and from the house during our weekend as we thought things would be a little closer. The view of the lake was exceptional from the first floor, as were the bonfire pit, kayaks and SUP boards. I wish we had better weather to actually go on the lake but I would definitely keep this home in mind for my next weekend getaway

The property is beautiful and very well maintained. The house has been renovated wonderfully and communicating with the host was easy and fast! There was an early bloom of ticks in the area so we had to check the dogs and ourselves every time we came back in. The only other drawback is it would get quite warm in the main room during the heat of the day with just the fans running, there was no AC during our stay. We couldn't leave the doors open for a breeze because of our dogs. It always cooled down significantly at night.

Awesome location!!!
