I just read the negative review that was left before mine and am absolutely appalled! Everything I read was so innacurate compared to our experience. We had the most wonderful visit at the most lovely house. You can really tell the owner cherishes this property and we felt honored to enjoy a bit of the homes history this week. The house is definitely dated, but that only added to the charm. It really did have all the modern amenities i could have asked for. The wifi was good, beds were comfy and the water pressure was pretty decent. The owner was a fantastic host who made this such an enjoyable stay. 10/10!

My friends and I were excited to stay in this charming home. Unfortunately, there were a few things and incidents that did leave a bit of a damper to our stay. 1) We were a group of 8 and there was only one shower that did not drain properly. We informed the owners about this and were told to use the Draino under the sink. We did, but it had no result. She informed us it always drains slow that’s just how it is. Luckily we had a friend who was willing to spend the time while on vacation to fish the drain and get another gallon of hair remover solution to clear the clog and fix it. 2) There are amenities shown on the listing page but when we arrived the place was not as advertised. The AC window unit was only for the first floor. At night, while the temperature is 60-70 the rooms can still get pretty hot and stuffy. We tried to open the windows, but several of the bug screens didn't fit, so we had to deal with mosquitos, spiders and moths. The space advertised that there was a grill on the premises, when we didn’t find one, we reached out to the host and were told that the grill was the little fire pit outside, the “front yard fireplace” as seen in the photos. 3) The kitchen utensils could use some updating. Many of the kitchen tools were very rusty and not safe to use. Others like the Keurig machine only worked when double the amount of water was used. Overall, this is a cute/nice house but to use the house’s age as an excuse to these problems did leave us w/ a bad taste.

We had a lovely stay at this charming house! Holly was wonderfully responsive and informative. A great host! Thank you!

Good location for getting Out to Acadia, but expect a minimum of 30 - 40 minutes to most locations such as Cadillac Mountain, Acadia mountain, etc where we hiked. House was in a quiet neighborhood, enough space for everyone to rest comfortably after a long day of hiking. We really appreciated the insight into the area provided by Holly, particularly the Dunbar store, which was fantastic for everything we needed. Thanks!

Holly's home was cozy and served well as a base for a group of friends to explore Northern Maine. The beds were comfortable and the the rooms and home were clean. We did have two small issues while there. One was the fire and smoke alarms. Had batteries that needed replacement. We went and purchased new batteries for the smoke alarms that were chirping and woke up one of our guests. When we asked the owner for reimbursement for the $8, she did not provide any any which was frustrating considering we are performing maintenance on her property as guests.

Wonderful house on a quiet road off the beaten path. Worked well for going to the coast or in to Ellsworth. Fun colorful touches throughout the house with the pans and appliances in the kitchen, nic nacs throughout the house, and generally cheerful sense to the house. Very clean. Warm during the day and night without us changing any settings of the heat. We were 2 couples, so one couple was in single beds, but that worked out fine in our group. Would definitely stay here again!

We had an enjoyable short stay at this lovingly cared for older home. The owner communicated easily, regularly and clearly with us through the VRBO app. The home was well equipped, and had everything we needed. The home is relatively close to Bar Harbor (about 35 minutes by car) and to Acadia National Park (roughly 40 minutes). Dining and shopping near the home are somewhat limited, although we did find some places we liked a lot. We enjoyed exploring the towns of Ellsworth (20 minutes) and Hancock (15 minutes), which were both quaint, un crowded, and thoroughly tourist-friendly.

This place was a dream from the moment we booked. Everything went extremely smooth and there were no hiccups along the way. The home is everything and more! Old farmhouse charm with modern amenities! This home is extremely clean, and the decor is wonderful. Plenty of beds for your family and a ton of board games to entertain everyone. Finish off the night with a bonfire and s’mores! The neighbors were friendly and kind and our host Holly was the best!
