Summary: We absolutely loved our stay at Birch Harbor. The views are incredible, the cathedral ceilings in the house are beautiful, it is well equipped with things to do (pool table, fooseball table, fire pit on beach). It took around 80 minutes to get to Cadillac mountain, 60 minutes to get to Acadia in general. But we actually liked this area more than Bar Harbor as it was more remote, less toursity etc, and Schoodic point (5 min away) was one of the prettiest sites we saw on the trip, and wasnt crowded with tourists like the main Acadia area was. There are also biking trails and walking trails in the local area, where we saw a deer and porcupine, again way less crowded than main Acadia area. So if you dont mind the drive to the main sites, and want a peaceful remote beautiful stay this is a great place! Of note, the beach is rocky, which older kids collecting rocks may love, but young kids would not be able to run around etc (which is pretty clear by the photos). But there is a sand beach nearby.

Summary: Stunning views and beautiful landscaping! The wild blueberries and blackberries were a delight for the kids. It was fun for all ages (infant to grandparents). We rented bikes and rode on the carriage paths in Acadia. Plenty of room for everyone. The rocky beach is a bit tricky to explore for grandparents but the kids loved it. After staying in busy Bar Harbour for a few days, it was very pleasant to enjoy the quieter side of Acadia.

Summary: We stayed for a work offsite and we all enjoyed the privacy and views that come with this property. While there are no grocery stores close by, we brought enough food for two meals a day and we went out to local restaurants for one meal per day. The home is large and well stocked with everything you need to make your own meals. You are within one mile of Acadia National Park and your walk there is along a beautiful Maine coastline. Communications with the homeowner were easy and they made certain that we were happy with our stay.

Summary: We had a great stay! We spent most of our time in Bar Harbor which was about an hour away, but when we were in the house, we had a great time! Everything we needed was in the house and the views were insane! We loved being able to all stay at one house! We ate at the treehouse nearby the house and it was delicious too! Can’t recommend this house enough! The owners were very responsive too!

Summary: A very beautiful, large and comfortable home right on a spectacular strip of the Maine coastline. We enjoyed the beauty and comfort of this place. We brought the family together and we all had a great time. Large kitchen was super for cooking and enjoying. A beach campfire in the evening was a fantastic way to spend time with loved-ones.

Jul 26, 2022 07:54:22 PM
Summary: We loved this house!! Just how we wanted to end our 10 days in Maine! The house is gorgeous, the view and the location are spectacular! It was definitely on the higher priced side. As an owner of high end rental properties we always make sure to have the best cooking supplies. We needed some more pans, the ones supplied weren’t awesome. We couldn’t figure out how to use the grill. Other than just a few minor things the house was great, but for what we paid, for me to give it a full 5 star it would’ve had to been perfect. If you are looking to get away this house is exactly what you want! The kids loved being on the rocks. The Pickled Wrinkle has great food and Schoodic Pt is gorgeous! You are about an hour from Bar Harbor but we didn’t want to me in the busy part so the location for us was magical! Bring bug spray! The mosquitoes got us! 😬

Summary: A great place for a family reunion in a incredible house. The location is perfect with easy access to Acadia’s Schoodic district bike paths and loop road. I would definitely come back.

Summary: This is an incredible property in so many ways. The home is about 15 years old but has been well maintained by it's owners. It really feels quite new. The kitchen is fit for gourmet cooking with all the best appliances and cooking utensils. The location on the coast of Maine's Schoodic Peninsula is remote but a wonderful ferry ride away from Bar Harbor if you want to shop. Our host Kevin responded to all our questions immediately during the stay. We would have loved to stay longer.
