About this house rental

Enjoy Long Pond and Acadia National Park at Long Pond Escape, a private, new (2016) home, on six acres of woods located on a secluded cove on the northwest corner of Long Pond.

The first floor features bright, open living space with a fully equipped kitchen, island with 4 stools, a large dining table (seats 8), and a half bath and living room area with a wood stove. Doors open to a spacious deck facing the lake, and to a side screened porch. Master bedroom with queen bed and a 32" TV, and a master bath with glassed shower. The master bedroom has views of Long Pond.

Upstairs are three bedrooms: queen (also with a 32" TV), double, and one with a twin bed and a bunk bed (2 twins), and a full bath. All three upstairs bedrooms have views of Long Pond.

There is a finished basement with a family room with a 55" TV with blu-ray disk player and Roku player, a game room with a mini pool table, a full bath with shower. The laundry room is also on this floor. Double French doors open to a stone patio with a fire pit.

Head down to the private dock and enjoy a swim or paddle and discover the quiet side of Long Pond. A canoe, four kayaks, a row boat and a pedal boat are all available for your enjoyment. If you don't feel like swimming or boating, the dock is also great for sunbathing, reading, fishing, or just enjoying the view of the lake with Cadillac, Sargent, Beech, Mansell and Bernard Mountains in the background. You can also enjoy the loons and ducks that swim by every day, and on occasion you'll see great blue herons and bald eagles. On clear nights, the dock is a great place for stargazing -- see the Milky Way in all its glory.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay! The view, beautiful setting, and accommodations were outstanding. We are nature and animal lovers and had the opportunity to see and hear river otter, loons, owl, cormorant, deer, and ducks. We enjoyed kayaking, hiking, the fire pit as well as sitting on the dock and beautiful deck. The proximity to Acadia and the harbors was great and we loved staying on the quiet side of the island.

The house was as advertised and worked beautifully. Tim was a terrific host providing an easy sign in experience and a lot of info on the place and things to do in the area. We also used the kayak, canoe, paddleboards - all are in terrific shape and included flotation vests and paddles. The location is perfect - quiet, peaceful with terrific access to all parts of the island. Terrific trip, thx!

Had a great time with the family. I highly recommend this property. We had fun with the water toys, exploring the area, fishing, campfires, etc. The lakehouse was within 30 min of pretty much everything on the island including Bar Harbor and Acadia.

Wonderful house, loved the seclusion, very peaceful setting!, enjoyed the song of the loons every night. House was well stocked, inside and out. Many water toys, paddle boards, kayaks, peddle boat, and canoe. Plenty of life preservers, and fishing poles. Proximity to Acadias many hiking trails was great. Bar Harbor was just a short drive. We would definitely rent this house again!

We have stayed at many properties on MDI throughout the years and this one is hands down the best! The location is perfect - not too far from the Park Loop Road in Acadia or Bar Harbor, yet completely private. Long Pond is great for an early morning paddle, afternoon swim, or fishing.

My family and I (ages 4-75) all enjoyed our stay on Long Pond. The house was clean and the sleeping and dining space was perfect for our family of 7. The seating in the living room was a little tight for all of us, but there was so much to do outdoors and the weather was great so there was not much time to sit indoors anyway! Most spots in Acadia were 20-30 mins away so it was a great jumping off spot for both the east and west sides of MDI. We especially recommend a sunset or sunrise hike on Beech Mountain (only about 10 mins away). There were plenty of boats and life jackets for everyone to get out on the pond and the dock is very peaceful for just relaxing. One small note is that we didn’t know to bring our own bath soaps, so we had to run out and get some. Not a big issue and overall we loved our stay and would definitely go back!
