Summary: The location is perfect. It seems as if you are staying right in the park in the woods. Everyday we walked to the end of the road and back. I have stayed at a half dozen or more vacation rentals and this kitchen was by far the best stocked with pots, pans, etc. I highly recommend this house.

Summary: We really enjoyed the secluded but central location of this property. We spent our days out hiking, kayaking, and sailing Acadia, and our evenings relaxing comfortably here. We would highly recommend this property to anyone planning a trip to Acadia. Not that we had much time to enjoy them, but we also found the book selection in the “library” to be outstanding! It was easy to tell that Ann is an English major. (There were three English majors in our group.)

Summary: The house was very pleasant to stay in. Well equipped, clean and nice layout. Beds were comfortable. Best feature of house was the location. Quiet and in the woods. We ate outside most nights. MUCH better than staying in the chaos of Bar Harbor during peak season. Kirk (property manager) was very helpful when we had a few questions prior to arrival. We would definitely stay there again if we re-visit Bar Harbor. Thank you Ann and Kirk!

Summary: This property was located in a perfect area. Nothing was more than a 20 minute drive and that is mostly due to busy summer traffic. The house can be found a mile down a quiet woodsy gravel road. It is relatively secluded which was so nice. The house is cute, quaint, and functional for a family. We often ate breakfast there and ordered takeout one night. Laundry is right in the kitchen area with the three bedrooms upstairs. We often left for a hike and lunch, returned for a bit, and headed out again. It was a wonderful home away from home. Ann, the owner, possesses a skill when it comes to home design and decorating. Her home is absolutely lovely and I recommend this home for anyone who desires happy trails.

Summary: Both Ann and Kirk were friendly, helpful, and prompt communicators. We found the house clean and comfortable with absolutely everything we might need as far as kitchen supplies, bedding, towels. Ann’s House felt like a home, like we were at a friend’s house for the week. Beautiful house plants, tons of books, games and Legos for kids. My family was comfortable and well cared for. This was a great home-base for our week in Acadia and Bar Harbor. The location is about 20 minutes from everything, and it is quiet and private-perfect for relaxing after busy days. Thank you, Ann and Kirk, for a lovely stay!

Summary: Ann’s house is in a beautiful, secluded location that is close to Acadia National Park. The house has everything you need, is well kept, and comfortable. Kirk, the property manager, communicated very well and responded to our questions promptly. I would highly recommend this property for a stay in the Bar Harbor area.

Summary: Very nice and well kept property. Nice deck with a grill and outdoor seating. Inside the downstairs is very spacious and comfortable. Upstairs the beds are comfortable and the bathroom is nice. There is so much to do in the park and there are plenty of nice restaurants to choose from. We would stay here again if we were in the area.

Summary: We enjoyed hiking when it wasn’t raining and local restaurants for great seafood . Unfortunately we had to leave a day earlier due to hurricane Lee. The house was conveniently centrally located on MDI with short drive from hiking trails, restaurants and town of Bar Harbor.

Summary: Anne’s home in Bar Harbor is even more beautiful in person and was the perfect place for me and my family to get away to for a relaxing vacation! Kurt, the property manager, had everything incredibly clean and comfortable for our stay. The welcome basket was a very nice touch! Anne’s book collection is also wonderful :) The location of the property is perfect to explore Acadia NP and Bar Harbor. I very highly recommend Anne’s property and would certainly stay here again if we get back to the area. Thank you for a wonderful vacation!
