A Little Mad Stay is a spacious rental right in the middle of Bar Harbor, walkable to everything and has designated parking. It's also on the same property as A Little Mad Gift Shop & Gallery which is a must see!

Beautiful property! Great location.

Amazing location, impeccably clean - really can’t beat the hospitality. Can’t express enough how perfect the location is. To be walking distance from everything in Bar Harbor (bike rentals, restaurants, ocean tour docks, etc) was huge value for us - we have 4 young kids, age 1-8. We could literally walk back from most dinner spots to change the little guy’s diaper!
Acadia access was basically right down the road, took a short walk to a few different shuttles (including a bike shuttle which runs in the summer) as well as drove ourselves a couple times.
All said - very much recommend!

This apartment was in the perfect part of Bar Harbour! It’s in walking distance to absolutely everything yet still quiet at night. The apartment’s cleanliness far exceeded my expectations and the beds were surprisingly nice. Having both a reserved parking spot and personal washer/dryer machine were 2 of the best perks! We would 100% stay here again and recommend it to anyone!

Wonderful location in Bar Harbor. On a quiet side street within walking distance to restaurants and harbor. Also a short drive to Acadia.
Rental was clean, and was equipped with everything we needed. Having off street parking was a huge bonus.
It was a pleasure meeting the owner in their lovely shop in front of the rental. Very friendly and helpful with lunch recommendations. Would definitely stay here again!

Right in the heart of bar harbor. You are a stone’s throw from the water,restaurants, shopping and Acadia park. Place has 2 nice bedrooms, plenty of towels, shampoo, soap and toiletries. Sits immediately behind a shop with full kitchen and living room. 2 BR upstairs and quiet. Very nice stay in this beautiful town.

Park the car and walk Bar Harbor.
Clean and just enough space for the four of us. We had the first chilly days in Bar Harbor and had to use the heaters there was a confusion about setting the heaters. We had the help of the owner and figured it out. Hopefully there will be a better explanation how to use the controllers. Over all great stay.

This home is perfect for a stay near Acadia NP. It’s in central Bar Harbor - a short walk to anything you need including amazing restaurants, the shuttles into Acadia, and the tourist shops. It’s situated above an adorable unique gift shop opened by the VRBO hosts - make sure you stop in & say hi. The kitchen is well equipped for simple cooking. The bedrooms are nice and the bathroom is sufficient. We would 100% stay here again!

This adorable little apartment was right in the heart of bar harbor. Just steps away from the harbor to jump on a sunset sail or lobster boat cruise. It had everything you could ask for in a home away from home. We enjoyed all the balconies and private little spots. On-site parking was an added bonus! The decor was charming.
