À propos de cette location de vacances
Spectacularly Situated Mansion.
Le Sol's Cliff House est un manoir historique situé au sud de Bar Harbor, dans le Maine, et surplombant la baie Frenchman. Nichée au cœur de 12 hectares de pins et de sapins privés, cette location de Mount Desert Island offre ce que nous pensons être la vue la plus magnifique sur une île aux vues incroyables. Notre beau-grand-père, le romancier avocat new-yorkais Arthur Train, a commandé la maison à l'architecte de Boston, George Shepard, en 1914, ce qui en fait l'un des derniers «chalets d'été» de l'âge d'or de Bar Harbor. Il a à peine survécu au grand incendie de 1947. Les grandes pièces du rez-de-chaussée sont reliées par des doubles portes et un grand hall d'entrée. Tout le côté est surplombant la baie est bordé de doubles portes françaises s'ouvrant sur une terrasse en brique, offrant une vue magnifique à l'est sur la baie Frenchman et les îles Porcupine jusqu'au continent et au sud jusqu'au phare de Egg Rock et l'océan Atlantique au-delà. Séjourner à la Cliff House de Sol, c’est revenir en arrière à une époque de longs étés en famille, de soirées à la maison, d’exercices vigoureux, de culture nationale et de note extravagante. Profitez de cet endroit privilégié où l’Acadia rencontre la Frenchman Bay, détendez-vous au rythme des pêcheurs de homards qui font leur tournée (plus le passage occasionnel d’un navire de croisière au loin) et rajeunissez au contact de la mer et de la mer.

We were very relaxed and enjoyed our vacation at this home. The house is huge and could accomodate several families. The Views are spectacular. The hjouse is over 100 years old and is kept in near original condition so don't expect 21st century amenities. However the lack of new VRBO-expected accomodations are what made our stay even more relaxed. With so much to do in Acadia - we hiked and kayaked veryday, having a place to unwind or take a smlow morning with coffee was perfect. Only problem was you want to hang out looking at the view more than hiking.
Great place

Seventeen family and friends (included 5 children/grandchildren ages 7 - 4) just completed our 1-week visit to Bar Harbor. Highly recommend this home for large family or friend gathering. Words are inadequate to describe the view from the terrace and ocean facing bedrooms. It is completely isolated and yet very convenient to the town of Bar Harbor (1-2 miles away). Home caretaker (Leo) was very prompt to respond to two minor maintenance issues. Could not have found a better home for our large family and friends' gathering.

We opened the front door and our jaws dropped. The house itself is magnificent from floor to ceiling and the view off the cliff is breathtaking. While the historical detail fascinated me - even the doorknobs look original - it doesn't displace modern amenities. We cooked (and cleaned up) with ease. The location also can't be beat. The town is a walkable distance, the Schooner Head and Compass Harbor Trails are practically at the end of the driveway, and more challenging trails are minutes away by car. We want to come back next year.

This house is worth it for the view alone. I packed an ambitious amount of reading material with the goal of spending hours on hours reading on the terrace. That goal went unaccomplished as the view overwhelms you with majesty and you just cannot take your eyes off it--the Mt. Desert Narrows, the Porcupine Islands, the lobstermen collecting traps.
Inside, the house is spacious and full of historical surprises. A perfect spot for large groups not wanting to step on each other's toes. After long days of hiking, the library basically begs you to sit by the fire with a drink.
The easy access to Acadia is also an incredible asset. Within minutes we could find ourselves climbing up mountains to even more incredible vistas.

I was truly amazed the first time we pulled into the circular driveway. It felt like I had traveled through time and space to an English country estate where Hercule Poirot was about to solve a mystery. I loved everything about the house. The old world charm, the location, the amazing views. It was the perfect place for our group of friends to enjoy a wonderful Maine vacation. I can't recommend this house highly enough.

We originally rented Sol's Cliff in August, 2011, to celebrate the 50th wedding anniversary of my parents. This house is fantastic for large family get-togethers of the extended clan, i.e., grandparents, children and grandchildren. The original trip went so well we returned again in August, 2012 & August, 2014, this time with an extended group of friends and our children (ranging in age from toddlers to pre-teens). Lots of fun to be in the same house and let the kids rollick around. It is quiet and secluded with incredible views over the ocean but a quick drive or easy biking distance to town (for all but the smallest bicyclists). The house itself is an amazing example of architecture from a long-gone era when families would decamp to a place like Bar Harbor for the whole summer. Faded glory and rustic chic in the best way possible. The kitchen is large, comfortable and functional. Handy grill outside. Owner was easy to work with, flexible, and prompt in communications. Has been in same family for generations. We hope to go back again in the future.

I stayed here and had the most RELAXING vacation! Nothing beats walking through the first floor and passing by all the screen doors letting in fresh air, although sitting outside and reading a book or even working (some of us couldn't get away the entire week) with a breathtaking view in front of you was great too! We went on many wonderful hikes, went sea kayaking and even took a mail boat out to Little Cranberry Island for an unforgettable meal! This home is great because it has a huge kitchen and it's made to fit a big group be it friends or family. The fireplaces are a wonderful touch and all the antiques make it feel like you're in another time (which is really cool)! It's an unforgettable place, highly recommended!

We stayed at this house in September 2015. It was perfect! We were a group of about 12 and the house easily accommodated all of us (and would have fit quite a few more). The house is truly amazing-- apparently one of the last examples of the mansions from the halcyon days of Mount Desert Island. It definitely maintains its classic feel, but has been updated with modern amenities (like internet, which is a must for us and an issue on MDI at times, a grill, and a very well updated kitchen). The view off of the back porch is honestly one of the best I have ever seen, and while the house is well tucked away from others, it is a quick trip, either walking (20 minutes) or driving (3-4 minutes), into downtown Bar Harbor. Also very close to some of the better parts of Acadia, including the Dorr Mountain ladder trail and Mt. Champlain, and just a short walk through the woods to Compass Cover. We've been going to MDI for years and we all agreed this is the best rental we've gotten. Acadia is amazing, in terms of its natural beauty of course but also in terms of the history that made it the park it is today -- it's hard to articulate, but we all agreed that the house parallels those things well. We'd definitely return. Not sure why the house has no reviews right now--- it certainly did when we booked it, and that's part of the reason I "stopped" to make sure I left one. We'd definitely return!
