The 1824 house is a spacious, lovely, historic, modernized home with Blue Hill restaurants and stores in front and a beautiful waterfront in back. Our family enjoyed the privacy of individual bedroom suites and the gathering spaces inside and out.

After a long flight and drive (in the POURING rain), we arrived at the home in time to make plans for dinner. We found the home to have a lot of space and character, and enjoyed our time there (when it wasn't raining) - especially driving/hiking in and around Acadia, and getting our share of seafood. + There were a LOT of carpenter ants in the 4 forward bedrooms and many common areas. + There were large cobwebs (at least 6) in the giant room ceiling. + Some of the kitchen ware seemed as though it had not been well-cleaned. + Within 5 minutes of walking in the door and the half-bath needing to be used, it overflowed all over the floor. + The shower in the crow's nest room is not very big, and the door hinge is not properly attached/tightened, so unless is being held closed, leaks water all over the floor. + There are no AC vents, so when it's on, it can't be closed off or re-directed in rooms as needed.

Harbor house is a beautiful home in the heart of the downtown area. Plenty of restaurants and food stores close by. It was a great central location to visit the entire state. I highly recommend a stay at this deluxe property.

This was a great stay for 4-5 couples with 5 large beds. The whole house and neighborhood is super cute. Plenty of space to spread out with a large kitchen, TV room, and a Family Room with a round table for board games. There is also a large dinning table for Family meals. It's right on the water, so we rented Kayaks that we took out at high tide. Grocery store (Trade Winds) is pretty close and there is a general store that has a lot of stuff thats walking distance if you're in a pinch. There are tons of hike and beautiful scenery close by. This house was a real gem

My family and I were very comfortable at Harbor House, a spacious, well maintained and beautifully decorated antique home in downtown Blue Hill. The kitchen accommodations of double sinks, dishwashers and trash compartments made it possible to have many hands pitching in in the kitchen and the bedroom layout allowed for good privacy. The gardens and outdoor spaces were lovely and the views of the harbor served as the backdrop for many of our meals including steamed lobsters and corn on the cob. cConvenient to many other beautiful towns such as Brooksville, Castine, Little Deer Isle, Stonington, Ellsworth and not too far from Northeast Harbor and Acadia, all of which we visited!

It was a complete stroke of LUCK that there was a cancellation! We loved looking out at the water and the great location - within walking distance to the best coffee, to FISHNET and waterfront park.

Had a great vacation with my parents, husband, and son at this house. Space is well laid out and kitchen superbly equipped for serious cooks. Each bedroom had its own bathroom and the space was clean and well-maintained. House is on a busy street, but close to some of the nicer eateries in Blue Hill (allowing you to walk) and street noise is not evident from the house - which has views of the water. Would definitely recommend this spot!

Beautiful and comfortable home, lovingly restored and updated, keeping the best in her 1800’s architectural details. Grounds and gardens were beautiful. Blue Hill is a great village to explore, and a scenic 45 min drive to Acadia!

We really enjoyed staying in this historic home. Maine was experiencing a heat wave and we were so happy the house had air conditioning. The location was great as we walked to Bucklyn's coffee nearly every day. We drove to Acadia for some hiking and activities and were glad we didn't stay in Bar Harbor as it was so busy. We definitely recommend renting the kayaks and exploring. So many great family memories in Blue Hill!

Harbor House is a perfect base for a stay along the Maine coast. The house itself is like a dream, and it comes along with easy access to the charming towns along the coast and to Acadia National Park. It's close enough to get there and back in the same day but far enough to be away from the bustle. We stayed in a couple of times just so we could spend time in the house; this is the first trip I've taken where I could say that. Another thing: the kitchen is unusually well stocked. Communication with Laura was great and she addressed any issues we had pretty quickly.

We had a wonderful time and enjoyed the house so much! It was spacious, clean, and well-appointed. It was the perfect location for our family vacation in Maine.

We stayed here for a week — two families with five teens. It was a perfect base for our Maine/ Acadia adventures! The house itself was clean, incredibly well outfitted, and decorated beautifully with period-appropriate antique and vintage furnishings. We so appreciated all the space to spread out both inside and out. When the weather was nice, we spent much of our time on the patio and in the fabulous gardens drinking in the dreamy harbor view! Moonrises and sunsets from here are to die for… We really appreciated all that was provided at the house — linens and towels, including beach towels; extensive spices; paper products; mini soaps and shampoos and even a welcome gift. We highly recommend: Bucklyn Coffee next door (try the oat milk mocha!), The Activity Shop for great kayak and paddle board rentals (you can readily launch from the house and we even saw seals while paddling in the harbor), Blaze across the street for yummy BBQ and live music (though patience may be required in terms of service), Sandy’s Cafe for breakfast or lunch right up the street (try their homemade-daily bagels and/or doughnuts!), the Blue Hill Mountain hike taking the trail from the post office across the street (turn it into a loop— a little over 4 miles total, first half uphill! — but so lovely. Trail is hidden and unmarked though… take the rocky steps to the right of the post office loading dock), and you MUST look up local steel drum band Flash in the Pans and attend one of their outdoor concerts in Blue Hill Park! We made many wonderful memories here and would return in a heartbeat.

This is a beautiful property on the perfect setting in a quaint little town. It was better than expected.

A wonderful house in Blue Hill! The house was great, immaculate and very comfortable. We loved the kitchen and the beautiful living room with the ever changing view of the bay. The internet was strong and easy to log on and all in all, our very best stay in our 5 visits to the area. Thank you for sharing your wonderful summer place!

Everything was fantastic. Great location in town and on the harbor. A rare combination. Close to a great coffee and next to a wonderful gallery. Near the library and park. A short trip to the market. Hiking across the street. Water behind the house. We were always happy here.

Eighty-three Main Street was perfect for our extended family of 11. Our family of three grown children, their significant others, and 3 grandchildren had a fabulous week. The house was well-appointed, beautifully updated and the cook's kitchen was the perfect place to gather to cook special meals. The views from the patio and beautiful gardens were glorious. We look forward to staying again in the future.

Centrally located on Main St of Blue Hill yet very well insulated from the street sounds - peaceful house with really nice backyard overlooking the cove. Kitchen was a highlight and all of our guests appreciated the ensuite bathrooms. Highly recommended!

This was a great place. The view is amazing. We used it as a great home base to see Bar Harbor, Acadia, and Deer Island. It was so relaxing to come home and enjoy the view.
