Great house, perfect distance from Bar Harbor. Secluded. The water was not what it was portrayed in the picture. Not a big deal for my family but I would not use it on the opening page.
Great location for exploring Acadia National Park. One minor issue that was addressed quickly. House was as described and worked well for both adults and children.
We had a wonderful time here. The place is very sweet. It is well located - outside of Bar Harbor but very close. It is definitely not fancy - but has everything you need.
The hosts were superb! Communications started well before we arrived at their house on Otter Creek Drive. Everything that was expected was there upon arrival.
Amazingly, hiking trails were found right out the front door. We were able to walk to other trails nearly by and made it to the top of Cadillac Mountain!
We give the Spruces our very best wishes and hope that we can arrange for another visit next year.
Had a great time. Kids had fun at the hidden water pond. Kyle was great to deal with. Very easy check in. When we had issues he replied quickly and was helpful. Would just say the house maybe could have been a little cleaner. Overall, a good stay and super location.
My crew came up to enjoy the beauty of nature with several planned hikes throughout Acadia. The most appealing aspect of this property was the proximity to Acadia. It was LITERALLY a 4 minute drive to the Acadia entrance and probably 5 minutes to the center of Bar Harbors shopping area. Communition with the host was flawless.
Clean and well-maintained property tucked away in the woods but bright inside. Swimming hole off trails in the back is an added bonus. Overall great place to stay.
When visiting Maine and Acadia National Park, there is no better place to stay than Woods and Waters! This open-concept family home is located at the base of Cadillac Mountain, steps from Acadia Park. Its location is absolutely perfect! The house has a detailed (waterproof) map of the many trails of Acadia that are left, right and all-around this wonderful property. It is a short drive (less than 4 mi) down the street to get to downtown Bar Harbor (Otter Creek turns into Main Street Bar Harbor. It was wonderful to go to downtown for the whale watching and shopping but yet retreat back to Woods and Waters for the cozy, relaxed get away in the woods. We even explored the trails on the property and found the creek and watering hole. The kids swam and made wonderful memories. Catrina was extremely responsive and helpful before and during our trip. This home is a definite YES!!!
Clean, private and incredibly located in the middle of the Park!! Catrina and Kyle were terrific hosts who bent over backwards to ensure we enjoyed our stay! We did!! 5 STARS!!
Property is close to town and close to Acadia which makes it great after a long day of hiking or sightseeing. Skylights are great at night in the master bedroom but make it a little difficult when the sun creeps in before 5 in the morning. We didnât do much cooking but the kitchen was well stocked with utensils and cookware. Would recommend having more plentiful paper towels and toilet paper available for guests as those arenât things we usually worry about running out of at other properties visited in the past. It was also nice having a house in the woods and we were able to hike to the creek nearby. The window units worked well keeping the home cool during the day with the summer heat but otherwise werenât necessary at night time when things cooled down. Overall would recommend staying at Woods and Waters.
Really super clean and comfortable! So convenient for hiking and downtown eating. The backyard hiking was so much fun. We will certainly do this again!
The location of this home was great, surrounded by green woods, right by the beautiful Otter Creek. The house was spacious and very pretty with beautiful wooden ceilings. They had a collection of books, toys, and games that my kids happily dig into. Owner very responsive to some general inquiries I had. I recommend this property and would rent it again if we are lucky enough to come back.
Woods and Waters provided a convenient and comfortable place to stay while we explored Acadia. There was plenty of space for five people and the host was polite and accommodating. The washer and dryer was a huge bonus for us. Thank you for providing this wonderful place for our familyâs vacation!
Comfortable house in a perfect location close to but outside of town. Clean and spacious, it served us well for our family vacation. Our little one especially appreciated the toys left at the house. Although the trail was not well marked, we found the water and rocks, which were amazing.The house was so nice, I wish we could have stayed longer.
The home is beautiful, in a wooded area with lots of room for our family. It is conveniently located close to Acadia and Bar Harbor. Some of our family camped at Blackwoods Campground which was just a 5 minute drive away. I would highly recommend staying here. The owners were quick to answer any questions and even had some suggestions for things to to in Bar Harbor.
Home was just as listed! Everything you need to be close to Bar Harbor but also close to the national park. House was clean and spacious, owners even dropped off extra toys for my little ones. Beds were very comfortable and house is equipped with everything you need to get your vacation started. Would stay again.
House was the perfect location for our family trip to Bar Harbor and Acadia. Very clean, everything you could need. Prefect little deck for grilling up some fresh seafood.
