Summary: The property was fantastic! It was an older home/cottage that has been renovated to a very high standard. The fit & finish of the home and the furnishings were excellent. It would have been hard to find a better property for the four of us to visit Maine and Acadia. I would highly recommend this property to anyone.

Summary: Our stay was so much fun! There is absolutely nothing the host hasn’t thought of. Everything was so nice - we were pampered! We utilized the kitchen, big screen tv, grill, and even the fire pit. The beds were so comfortable! Stephen communicated regularly and replied quickly to any questions we had. We would definitely encourage others to stay here.

Summary: Our adult children and their partners met us in winter Harbor for a short family gathering. Time was limited because of their jobs so we needed a location where everything we needed and wanted to do was close by. The Victorian cottage in Winter Harbor was perfect. Is attractive and well equipped with all the amenities we needed and more. The location was perfect for biking in the park for walking to restaurants and shops and exploring nearby communities. The outdoor space was small, but work nicely with the firing in the center of the picnic table, a bike rack, and nice gas grill. It also had a pleasant view, and the neighbors were very nice, allowing us to set up our cornhole on the edge of their property.

Summary: The house was great. Wonderfully kept older home. Very clean and everything was perfect. We really enjoyed the charming town of Winter Harbor. We experienced several of the local restaurants and thought they were all good. Perfect place to stay if you want to relax and enjoy the quiet.

Summary: We had a wonderful time at this charming home. It is one of the best rentals I have ever visited. It felt more like staying at a friend’s home. The house was well stocked with so many extras that enhanced our stay. We preferred the quiet atmosphere of Winter Harbor over the hustle and bustle we found on our visit to Bar Harbor. Our favorite activity was definitely the time we spent searching for sea glass on the sandy beach near the house. The local grocery store had everything we needed and the grab and go chowder was some of the best I’ve ever had. Highly recommend and hope to return one day!

Summary: We had 3 generations (ages 20-81) in Stephen & Suzanne's home for 5 nights. They thought of every detail. Beds were very comfortable. TV room was perfect with 4 recliners and a fireplace under the TV. Plenty of games. Only steps from several restaurants, 5&10, market, and the dock. This side of Acadia National Park is breath-taking, smaller crowds, plenty of trails, and plenty of beautiful picture opportunities! Schoodic Point was perfect to sit or climb on the rocks and watch the waves crash! Frazer Point is a green grass picnic area with a fun pier to walk out on. Try the free shuttle from the Ferry to Acadia. Winter Harbor is full of kind, helpful people at every restaurant, Pete at 5&10, market, and walking through town. We especially loved the staff and food at Gerrish Cafe! The clam chowder and blueberry pie were outstanding, but we tried something new every breakfast and most lunches. Nothing disappointed. We took a few trips to Bar Harbor and the larger part of Acadia and enjoyed Cadillac Mountain, Bar Island Land Bridge, Sand Beach, Jordan Pond, Bubble Pond, and Bass Harbor Lighthouse. We enjoyed the ferry from Winter Harbor to Bar Harbor on our last day. We really enjoyed "Catch your dinner" lobster tour in Corea, ME where we saw seals, puffins, a lighthouse, and learned how to catch lobster from the pros. We all agreed that coming back to Winter Harbor at the end of the day was delightfully peaceful! Thank you for sharing your beautiful home, Steven and Suzanne!

Summary: My wife and I have stayed in close to 50 hours VRBO’s over the last few years and I can easily say that this was the nicest property, owned by the best owner, that we have ever stayed at. Communication was effortless, every inquiry answered within 1-2 minutes. The owner cared so much for our happiness and satisfaction with his property. We were affected by a hurricane which was to come within 50 miles and he drove 300 miles to bring a generator in case the home lost electricity and some of our frozen food would potentially be lost. He even offered to pay for us to go and stay at a hotel further away from the hurricane. We turned down the offer as this was a problem beyond his power to control. I think that gives you an idea of what a wonderful guy this is. We were t going to come back to Maine next year, but now we are planning to do so. This was a wonderful vacation for us!
