At first sight we were impressed as the lights were on and very welcoming! The downstairs was a great area with family room and large dining table in a separate room. All bedrooms could be closed off by separate doors what a plus when traveling with a baby! Nicely furnished throughout! Location was perfect, walking distance to restaurants and some stores. Would stay here again with family!

Thank you to our hosts for providing just about every amenity we could have asked for. The house was very clean when we arrived, and we had no trouble getting in using the key code provided. Check-out was easy, too. The house itself is pretty cool and eclectic. Obviously the hosts have a flair for design. The bedding, lighting, bathroom fixtures, and kitchen appliances were all of good quality. Plenty of towels and blankets to use! Everything was incredibly well-organized and well-supplied in the kitchen. We were only two of us plus our dog, so we didn't use the entire house - but we did spread out, especially enjoying the downstairs (basement area done up as a fully-stocked game/entertainment area). The house could comfortably accommodate kids, grandparents, etc. We'd love to come back again and bring additional guests. Highly recommend this place if you're looking for a quieter option to Bar Harbor. To note: Many restaurants and shops in both Southwest Harbor and Bar Harbor close or limit their hours after the 31st of October. Next time we will visit a little earlier. Loved the Acadia Quietside Retreat!
