Great apartment right in the heart of Mount Desert Island / incredibly close to multiple Acadia Park entrances! We absolutely loved staying here and Eric was a great host and incredibly easy to communicate with. Check-in was seamless, the space was exactly as described, and we can't way to return!

First off, Eric our host was great! As a VRBO host myself I’ve learned some great ideas! Second, the location worked perfectly. At first it seemed isolated but it was refreshingly quiet and cozy. We were just minutes away to a Ferry that was important to us meeting up with family. Grocery was near by, SW Harbor for restaurants and shopping. I also recommend NE Harbor and the Nor’easter for fresh seafood at reasonable prices. The also hiked in Acadia just a short walk away which was a fabulous plus! Thirdly, the property and unit were immaculate! We took advantage of the grill and cornhole on our last evening and it was super fun! Definitely will return!!

We decided to head up to Acadia before the crowds. We loved this location of the VRBO. It was cozy and clean. Also, it was minutes away from Bar harbor and Acadia National Park. Communication with the owner was easy and always timely. I would definitely stay here again!

Nice stay in Acadia
We enjoyed our stay in Acadia. The studio apartment was well done and comfortable.
It is on the quiet side of Acadia but still a short drive away.
One suggestion - room darkening shades for the front window.

Amazing property!
Highly reccomend this property. Stayed here during my trip to Acadia National Park. Booked the first floor studio. Very clean, quiet, and had everything I could possibly need for the stove and grill. Incredible communication with the property owner. There's an intimate patio to enjoy morning coffee and breakfast on. Located about 20 minutes from the Park, very close to Beal's restaurant (also highly reccomend). Don't book a hotel, book this Vrbo!

Great location, accommodation and host
While this is a studio apartment, it had everything we needed as a home base for our first visit to the Acadia area.
Eric was very kind and understanding when we called on arrival regarding an issue we had with accessing the apartment on arrival ( operator error).
The location was so beautiful, with Acadia NPS trails less than a mile away, a NPS lakefront beach also less than a mile away. We were quite active visiting the park everyday and this was such a convenient homebase, away from the crowds of Bar Harbor.
One thing to be aware of is that the apartments are not air homebase. I’m glad we did not notice that, because we otherwise would have passed on this gem. My husband does not do well with the heat, and although it was very hot and humid the first couple days, we were outside, and there’s excellent cross ventilation in the studio.
Highly recommend, and we hope to be back soon.

We stayed in newly updated accessible room. Loved the bed & bathroom. Suppose to be ocean front but balcony view was 90% blocked by brush & trees that needed to be trimmed. Property under renovation but currently outdated. Would have been nice to have coffee maker & microwave in room. Currently not worth the $$$ paid for the night.

Lovely visit
We really enjoyed our visit to this property. The upstairs neighbors were polite, and the view of the trees was really lovely. Having a small kitchen and especially access to a grill was really nice for this visit.
One thing to note is that the listing did say when we booked there was air conditioning, but the owner confirmed it wasn't being installed until August. The owner was super responsive when I asked how to lower the temperature, and this may not matter most of the time in this part of Maine.

First time in Acadia
This studio was perfect for us. Spacious, great shower/bathroom, easy controls, the guidebook and all of Eric's communications prior to arriving made it seem like home quickly. In and out (after 4 days) seamlessly. Will definitely repeat when back in the area.
