The house was quiet and the location excellent. I thought it was overpriced and it irritated me that there was a fee for my kids when the house is intended for 4 people.

This home was fully equipped, kitchen and bathroom.Bring your own Keureg cups. Clean but outdated home fairly close to Acadia, Jordan Pond house entrance. Highly recommend an E bike tour through the park on carriage roads. Quiet safe neighborhood. 10 minutes to Bar Harbor. We arrived Friday night and the toilet clogged that evening. We tried everything and multiple times to unclog the toilet. We notified the owner on Saturday morning before we headed out. It was not resolved until Monday afternoon.

The house was clean and in great quiet location. We arrived late , but The host gave good direction and everything was ready. Adequately cooled and heated. We had to use both. There are not shops near by we picked up groceries on the way from Bangor at a Walmart . Stopped at the grocery store in Bar Harbor few days later. The store had what we needed, -prices were reasonable. You may need to bring some Foil, if your cooking and some storage bags to store your leftovers. We were there for a week. We saw the major sites…. Loved the Beauty of Acadia !

Perfect location for exploring Acadia. Away from the business of bar harbor but quick and easy drive to restaurants and shops. Within walking distance of e bike rentals which was a great way to explore the park. House was in a quiet area and very clean. Would definitely recommend/stay there again for my next Acadia trip. Michael was quick to respond to any questions.

The cottage is nice and clean in a quiet location. Very close to the Acadia national park and seal harbor beach. Easy communication with the owner. We love the kitchen, provided all things we need. We cooked one simple meal. We're very satisfied with everything at the cottage. The nearby restaurants at Northeast Harbor are limited, one was closed at dinner time during our visit, the other was not very good. For other days, we drove further to Bar Harbor where more good restaurants are located. Overall, we're very happy with our stay.

Just a few minutes from Acsdia

This place was so cute and made getting in to Acadia easy. My only complaint was it was listed for up to 6 people but there was an extra charge for more than 4 guests which wasn’t obvious until checkout. However we had everything we needed and really enjoyed our stay!

Lovely Spot for a Visit to Acadia

We had a lovely stay at this peaceful and well-kept property near Acadia. The space was quiet, clean, and comfortable: the perfect spot to return to after a day of exploring. The kitchen was well stocked, which made it easy to prepare meals for our adventures. While the listing says it’s "across the street from Acadia," it’s worth noting that the actual park entrance is about a 7-mile drive away. Not a big deal at all, but something to keep in mind. Overall, a great home base for enjoying the area!

Excellent location

We stayed here for a few days while we explored Acadia National Park. The location couldn’t have been better. It was a little confusing to find because if you hit “get directions” from within the VRBO app it takes you to the wrong address. The guide the host sends does a good job explaining how to find it, but we arrived after dark so it was a little difficult. If you don’t use the “get directions” button and manually put it into your GPS you should be fine. It’s a great location though. You could walk to Jordan Pond if you wanted. Everything we wanted to do was within a 5-30 minute drive. Very quiet too. We would definitely stay here again in the future.

Took a week to recover and reenergize, and found all we needed in this cozy little hideaway! Close to everything, but hidden away perfectly!

Perfect location, easy check-in/check-out

Our stay required only the initial communication with the owner. This initial communication provided the check-in and check-out details. We had the property to ourselves the entire time, no unexpected visits from the owner or contractors. The queen bed could use a new mattress, and the water pressure was low, but that would not cause me to lower my review. The location can't be beat - less than a mile to park entrance. Very close to the carriage rides. Super close to the land preserve. Clean and agree with prior renter who appreciated lack of mildew smell sometimes an issue in other properties. Would definitely recommend!

Perfect Location to Acadia

Loved this property. It was just my mom and I. We were not looking for anything special other than being close to Acadia. We also were not looking to be surrounded by people or to stay in a hotel. The location was spot on and literally right in the middle of Acadia. We rented a car so we did not need to utilize the park bus but we also were not there during a peak time. If we needed to use the bus the closest pick up location definitely would be walkable. I would say about a mile to Jordan Pond House (and you could even walk the carriage roads most of the way. Michael was a great host. He answered my questions quickly and was more than happy to give me a few dining suggestions. The house was perfect for our needs. I would definitely recommend it and would most definitely stay there again if I went back to Acadia.

Perfect Location

So peaceful to stay in Seal Harbor. The location allowed for easy access to Acadia by car and bike. So fun to leave the cottage on our bikes and explore the carriage roads. Easy enjoyable walk to the harbor. The accommodations were very comfortable for two couples. I highly recommend staying in Seal Harbor if you want to avoid the crowds in Bar Harbor. This cottage is just right for an enjoyable vacation on MDI.
