About this house rental

Recently finished home on wooded, residential road in Bass Harbor, on the quiet side of Mt. Desert Island (renovations completed spring 2012). Home has a great layout and comfortably accommodates a large family, two families, or several couples. The kitchen, appliances, bathrooms, fixtures, and many furnishings are brand new. A gas fireplace in the living room can take the chill off a Maine morning or evening. Bedrooms include a king-sized master with private bath, queen-sized bedroom, and a bunk room which sleeps 4. There is a front porch and large rear deck off the kitchen. The home is tastefully decorated and well-appointed. The owners have young children and are happy to accommodate yours. Pets negotiable.

Come visit all that Mt. Desert Island and Acadia National Park have to offer, while enjoying spacious, comfortable accommodations at this beautiful cottage in the woods.



The first level open floor plan includes a tiled entryway, half bath, kitchen with breakfast bar and seating for 4, dining room with seating for 10, den/family room, and living room with a gas fireplace. There are three bedrooms upstairs, including a master bedroom with king bed, walk-in closet, and private bath. The master bath features a double granite vanity, tile shower and separate soaking tub. Also upstairs you will find a queen-sized bedroom and a large bunk-room with two sets of bunk beds to sleep four. Downstairs, the living room can accommodate two additional guests. Options include a queen-sized sofabed and a twin-sized pull-out chair-and-a-half. The home can accommodate a maximum of 10 people, but more comfortably 8. Mattresses and bed linens are all new. There is another full-sized bathroom in the upstairs hallway. Both upstairs bathrooms feature tile floors with radiant heat.

We had a wonderful weeklong stay with members of our extended family. The house and property is beautiful, well maintained and clean. Kitchen is fully stocked with all items necessary to cook. Plenty of games, books, and some puzzles to keep people entertained at the house. The hosts have provided detailed check-in information on how to find the house, along with a book detailing check out and other important information pertaining to the rental. One thing to note, which the host mentioned they plan to make note of for future renters, is that the master shower can take a little bit to heat up on the first day. When I reached out about this they were very prompt in their response. We enjoyed everything about our stay here.

We stayed at Maria’s house for our elopement wedding weekend with our family and friends. It was absolutely perfect! Much bigger than the pictures make it seem. Very clean, comfy and homey. The kitchen is completely stocked to cook full meals and they even had a high chair for our little guy. Very quiet neighborhood, ample parking. We couldn’t have asked for a better home for our week in MDI, we will definitely be back!

Stayed with family and a family we are friends with for the week went hiking in the mornings and exploring the area in the afternoon. Lots to see and do if your the outdoors type and love nature. Enjoyed cooking in the big well equipped kitchen for dinner before we started playing board games before bed. Kind of a long ride to bar harbor and Acadia national park other than that no complaints very quit beautiful area

Very nice home with an open concept. It was perfect for us. It had everything we needed and more. I traveled with my adult daughter, son-in-law, 13 month old granddaughter and adult son. We each had our own bedroom. The owner supplied us with a high chair and toys for our granddaughter. We all had a great time! Would definitely stay at this home again the next time we return to Acadia National Park. HIghly, highly recommend staying here!!! A family trip we will never forget!

We loved our stay and can’t wait to return. The location is magical and quiet, both on the street and the location on MDI. The house has a cozy warm feel with tons of space. It was very clean and bright and was perfect for our annual Acadia getaway.
