We found this house clean, comfortable, lots of space and centrally located to both Bar Harbor and Southwest Harbor. Its on a quiet street near Beech Mtn. Kitchen was well stocked and it had all the amenties needed for a comfortable stay. We will probably stay again next year!

The property was clean, well-appointed, in a private area, and centrally located to many towns and amenities. I would stay here again next time I visit Mount Desert Island.

Great property, nicely decorated, practically located to go hiking. Close to a farm for fresh vegetables and pies. John the owner leaves upstairs and gave us great tips for hiking and going around.

What a perfect property for our family of 4. The house had more than everything we needed and is so comfortable. The location is perfect for getting everywhere on the island. We can’t wait to stay here again.

We had a great experience! Our stay lived up to all expectations and we would highly recommend to others who are considering visiting in the future.

This is the third time we have stayed here, and everytime we find something else about the place/ area we love. The house is always spotless, the beds are very comfortable, and there is plenty on infomation to read. Love it

My family and our dogs stayed here for the second time. We love the property, the amenities, and location! It’s central enough that we can easily get to all the fun stuff, but also tucked away so we have some privacy. Fantastic farm stand and hiking trails right down the road. We have an elderly pup and toddler, so no stairs was a big plus! Communication with the owners was fantastic and quick. Overall it was a fantastic stay and we’ll be back again!

Fabulous location, quiet, peaceful, clean, spacious and owners are very friendly and helpful which makes the trip even more enjoyable. First time at Acadia and so glad it was a wonderful experience for the whole family.

A cute, cozy, and spacious house in a quiet neighborhood centrally located to all the spots we were looking to visit. There is a very helpful binder with lots of information and suggestions. There is another unit with some room(s) above this one so you can hear people walking sometimes but it was only occasionally and nothing a pair of ear plugs won’t fix. Would definitely stay again!

Clean, quiet, and comfortable. Nice location, away from the hustle and bustle of Bar Harbor and close to some nice trails on the south side of the island. Hosts are warm and attentive.

The house was clean and comfortable and the owner was very kind and responsive. The house is in the perfect location tucked away in a quiet area that is close to both Acadia and Bar Harbor. I would definitely stay here again in the future.

This place was exactly what my husband and I needed for our 4 day adventure on MDI and Acadia National Park. As other's have mentioned, it serves a great home base. You have all the amenities and space you need, you are away from the noise and hustle of Bar Harbor but only a 20 minute drive away from many of the parks attraction and Bar Harbor. At night, you can stargaze as the there is very limited light pollution. Looking forward to coming back!

Beautiful place! Comfortable and lots of room! Private entrance with motion activated lights which we appreciated because we arrived after dark. Google maps didn't like the address, but we still found it!

Good place to stay!

We thoroughly enjoyed this rental. Perfect location with easy access to Acadia, Bar Harbor, and surrounding areas. The house is well-stocked with soaps/detergents, trash bags, kitchen utensils, pots and pans, and paper goods. Everything was clean, and we slept well. Very peaceful location. We briefly met the homeowners, and they were lovely people. A homemade jam awaited our arrival. Simple touches such as maps, brochures, and hiking recommendations made our visit even more enjoyable. We took several of the owners’ suggestions, and we were not disappointed. We appreciated how accommodating the house was for our dog too. There were linens available specifically for our pup and even dog dishes. Great experience! Have recommended to several friends already. 😊

We had a really nice time. The house is in a great location.

We enjoyed our stay. Amenities were great and we enjoyed seeing deer on the property.

Gardencourt was a comfortable and quiet spot for our family to enjoy Acadia and Bar harbor. The condo was very clean and comfortable and in great proximity to Acadia and Bar Harbor. The kitchen was well outfitted with all necessary cutlery/pots etc and there is a BBQ for use too. Fans are also provided and there is a small window AC unit in the kitchen. Also there is a washer and dryer which was helpful after a wet day hiking! There are plenty of towels, sheets, bedding and blankets too. The owners live upstairs and are available if needed. They provided communication prior to arrival with contact information if needed during our stay. They left a lovely welcome note with a jar of homemade jam. Would definitely stay again.

Sweet, cozy space on a beautiful property in a great location. The unit was clean, comfortable and had everything we needed for a weeklong stay. Communication was great, and the owners clearly put a lot of care into the space, and hosting (we really appreciated the personal touches and recommendations for favorite local hikes, eats, and shopping including tips on dog-friendly locations). The location is absolutely perfect - on a beautiful road, secluded and quiet but convenient to the park, Bar Harbor, and other local activities. Highly recommend!

We enjoyed our stay and would stay again!

Our family had a wonderful time staying at this property. The property is clean and well maintained. It is conveniently located near amazing hikes, southwest harbor and bar harbor. The property owners were very hospitable throughout our stay.

Property was clean and a great location. Owners were responsive when we needed to get in touch (we were delayed by car trouble on way up to Maine). Recommend this property!

We love staying here. This is our (2 adults, 3 kids under 10) third time and we plan to be back next year. The place is lovely, has everything you need. Small touches like nightlights make a huge difference. We prefer staying on the quiet side, and this location is perfect. There’s a trail down the street (and a great local farm), very close to Echo Lake, and not too far from our favorite restaurant- Thurston’s Lobster Pound.

This is advertised as a dog friendly property. If you have dogs, I would advise you to find a different property. Mount Desert Island is a fantastic place to visit with your family and pets-I highly recommend that you come here. This rental unit has an A and B side-1 unit above and 1 unit below. We were in the bottom unit with another unit above us. The Vrbo owner stated that there were long term renters in the other unit above us. There was an outside camera that films you.-kinda strange. There was constant noise from the above unit-walking and running, loud television, etc. There were construction trucks constantly pulling in and out of the driveway of the other unit. They would cut wood, etc and make noise throughout the day as they came and went. We brought our 2 dogs with us. We planned on our dogs being with us except for 2 kayak trips and a no pet boat trip, where we would have left our dogs at the rental unit in an XL crate for 3-4 hours for these 3 times. We left to go kayaking on Wednesday afternoon. 90 minutes later I received a text from the property owner that we were in violation of our contract by leaving our dogs alone in the rental unit and that they were barking. I immediately called back and explained to the owner our plans and assured them that the dogs were crated. The owner said that they would look into it and call me back. 5 minutes later I received a text that I was in violation of the rental agreement that I signed to stay at this unit. Since we could not leave our dogs crated for a 4 hour period, We canceled our other plans for the other kayak trip and boat tour, both of which were supposed to be Thursday and Friday highlights of our trip. When we vacated the unit Saturday, I called the owner asking for a partial refund. The best part? The so called long term renters above us were the owners !!! They never once took the time to introduce themselves or say hello!!!! While the rental unit itself would deserve a 4 star rating, I rate this overall experience as a zero rating. Our vacation was ruined directly by the owners. I recommend that you do not do business with these folks because of our experience. As a side note-All of our neighbors at home love both us and our dogs. We are always lending a helping hand to our neighbors. I truly do not understand how someone could act the way these Vrbo owners did to us.

We brought our dog and it was perfect for that. It would be great for a family. We liked the location and it was very quiet. Property owners were super nice. Clean and comfy. Good value.

My adult daughter and I stayed in this cozy, tucked-away little downstairs of a two-story bungalow-like setting. Nothing fancy. Accessible to everything, but very close to a great little hike up Beech Mountain. The owners were lovely.

This place was real find! It was out the way, in a very quiet spot, yet only 10 minutes from Southwest Harbor and close to lots of hiking. It was super clean, well furnished, with a fully stocked kitchen and a comfortable bed. We would definitely stay here again!

This property was perfect for our group as we wanted to be close to Bar Harbor and Acadia without being overwhelmed with people. It was a very private and quiet setting that was an easy drive to nearby towns. Priscilla and Vanessa were very accommodating hosts that made themselves readily available had we needed anything. Cozy house to come home to after a day of hiking and sightseeing!

The rental was everything we hoped it would be. Adequate amenities. It was so nice coming "home" after a good day of hiking in Acadia.

We had a lovely time at this attractive and conveniently located rental. Very clean and well-supplied. We hope to return in the future.

We had a relaxing six nights in this very comfortable home. Kitchen is particularly well-equipped for a rental, and the beds are comfortable. Also enjoyed watching the deer and wild turkeys who hang out nearby.

We really enjoyed our 1 week stay here (we were having so much fun we even extended an extra day)! Loved that it was tucked away from the hustle of Bar Harbor and was only about 15-20 minutes away from pretty much everything. Priscilla and Vanessa were quick to answer any questions ahead of our arrival. Comfy beds, generous kitchen space and a washer dryer (HUGE perk for us traveling with a messy and inquisitive toddler who came back from every hike with muddy clothes and wet shoes!). Also loved the fenced in outdoor space and BBQ grill. Wonderful and will stay again next time we're back at Acadia.
