Summary: This was an amazing place to complete our month long trip to Maine! This home was spacious, clean, well stocked and in a great location. We were less than 10 minutes from Southwest Harbor, which is a great little town. It was easy to get around from here and lots of great hiking, eating, and exploring within minutes from the door. The house is on a fairly busy road, but that was never an issue and we were able to play with our dog off leash in the back yard, which leads down to the waterside. The upstairs shower is short, but wasn’t a problem for my wife, I showered downstairs and didn’t find it too dark, nor too small for a stall type shower. Paul, the owner was awesome! He originally agreed for us to check in early, but when a wind storm knocked down limbs in the front yard, knocking out electricity, he notified us immediately, allowing us to sightsee on our way south from Lubec. Paul’s communication was timely and helpful. Thank you, Paul! We would definitely stay here again if we make it back to that part of the world! I highly recommend this VRBO!

Summary: Paul’s home away from home is truly a gem! The quieter side of the park is paradise. We enjoyed playing ball with our dog and evening fires in the spacious backyard. The sunsets are heavenly! I could go on and on………

Summary: We enjoy being on the “quiet side” of the island. But we still have easy access to hiking and biking. We love launching our kayaks from the back yard. And the view is fabulous. I’ll also add that the house is always spotless when we arrive.

Summary: This property was located in picturesque Bass Harbor. Filled with beautiful antiques, it was perfect for our little family. This house was well appointed with everything we needed for our stay. I loved the fact that it was on the quiet side of the island during peak season, but still close to many activities to enjoy. We particularly enjoyed sea glass hunting, Beech Mountain hiking, swimming at Echo Lake, and hiking Wonderland and Ship Harbor (all 5-10 minutes from the property. Not to mention all of the other wonderful things to do closer to Bar Harbor. Can’t wait to visit again soon!

Summary: This was our fifth visit to Blackacre, and it was especially welcome after not being able to visit Maine for the last 6 years. Suffice to say, once we first visited this quintessential Maine cottage, we didn't want to stay anywhere else. As others have said, the photos do not do this house justice. It is right on the water. There are gorgeous harbor views from the deck (and most of the house) and the sunsets do not disappoint! The house is roomy, comfortable, and homey -- and incredibly clean. The recent addition of fans and AC units is most welcome. We love staying on the "quiet side" of the island -- there are plenty of nearby trailheads; it's a short drive to Southwest Harbor, and it's not that far from Bar Harbor, Jordan Pond, Cadillac Mountain, and everything else MDI has to offer. This house is walking/biking distance from the Seafood Ketch restaurant (dog-friendly deck), the Bass Harbor Nature Cruise (highly recommended), the Bass Harbor Lighthouse, the Swans Island Ferry, ice cream, and a mini mart with a surprisingly good selection of grocery items. You're down the road from the highly accessible (and beautiful) Wonderland and Ship Harbor trails and the Seawall, which we found to be great for quick dog walks at the beginning or end of the day. If you're visiting Maine and looking for the real-deal experience, this house is it!

Summary: The property was as listed. Beautiful sunsets, first morning greeted by a pair of bald eagles. House and furnishings were very homey. Kitchen was well stocked with good quality pans, dishes and glassware. Paul was very responsive, concerned when we lost power due to tropical storm. Despite being on a busy road felt very private and remote.

Summary: If you love Mount Desert Island, this is the place to go! The location is great, on the quiet side, easy drive to anyplace you want to be, and walking distance to a well-stocked store and great little seafood/ice cream shacks. The cottage is more lovely than the pictures show. It has a well-oufitted kitchen (we love to cook in), lovely deck and yard, and the interior is really clean and comfortable. The host was prompt to reply and very pleasant. This place is a keeper for our list.

Summary: We had a wonderful vacation to Maine the third week in September. Our arrival had a bit of drama due to Hurricane Lee approaching the Island. It was down graded to a tropical storm but unfortunately made landfall on the day of our arrival. Our daughters flight was delayed by a day. You can’t do anything about the weather! The good news is the weather was fabulous for the rest of our trip. Communication with our host was great. We loved the house. It has everything you need. I was sold when I walked into the kitchen and found a clean, new sponge by the sink! So many rentals leave dirty old sponges! We loved the quiet location and view by the harbor is lovely. It is a bit of a drive to the more popular attractions and hikes but we had our car and we’re prepared for that. I would highly recommend this rental.

Summary: The pictures in the listing do not do this cute little house justice. It is an old, charming home in excellent condition. It’s filled with useful and thoughtful antiques. An old weathervane pointing out the directions, a roll top desk to sit at and do work, antique book cabinets filled to the brim with interesting titles, beautiful wooden chairs to sit in… it’s a special little place. For our family of 4, it was the perfect size. My teen children opted to not share the second bedroom and my son slept in the TV room that had a couch that opened to a bed. The French doors even thoughtfully had blinds that could be rolled down for privacy. We also really enjoyed the beautiful night sky as we lay on the recliners on the deck. And there was a telescope and binoculars to use too. The owners really thought of everything. The only downside of the home was the shower situation. The upstairs shower has the angle of the roof in it and cannot be used by anyone tall. There is a stall shower in the downstairs bathroom but it’s small and dark. That was my only complaint. But I’ll deal with it for the rest of the house!
