We could not say enough great things about this stay! It was the perfect home base for us to explore Acadia National Park. We enjoyed bonfires by the water, played games around the table, and had amazing views from the large windows. We had 5 adults and there was more than enough room for everyone! It was decorated so cute. Had everything we needed and more! Would stay again in a heartbeat.

Cozy well-appointed and fully equipped property on a large private and peaceful lot sloping to the cove. Quiet location but very handy to everything the island has to offer! Host very accommodating, communicative & welcoming. Our only regret was not staying longer.

This vacation house was the perfect spot for our trip to Bar Harbor and Acadia National Park. The location made it easy to explore both the park and downtown, while still feeling peaceful and quiet. The home was clean, comfortable, and had everything we needed for a relaxing stay. We especially appreciated the outside seating area overlooking the water, it made for beautiful sunset views! The host was responsive and made the whole process smooth. We’d definitely stay here again and recommend it to anyone visiting the area!

Really nice house in a great location. I’ve stayed in a bunch of places around MDI and this ranks as one of the best. The yard and views are fantastic, the house had everything we could have wanted, and access to both the park and town were super easy.

The views were phenomenal, the house was comfy and tastefully appointed with every amenity, and the neighborhood quiet and peaceful, but close to all the action. We had a hard time leaving to go sightseeing. Jacqueline, the host, made everything easy. Can't wait to go back!

The house sits beautifully between a nice yard and the water. We spent a good amount of time sitting in the chairs that abut the cove. The kitchen was very functional and all the furniture was comfortable to sit on. It was very peaceful and only minutes away from Acadia Park. We enjoyed the coffee bar that was set up next to the bedrooms. We even saw a red fox in the road in front of the house.

This was the perfect “Maine” house located on the water in a beautiful, quiet and serene setting. The house is so well appointed and had everything we needed. We loved all the touches of Maine throughout the house. Our favorite place in the house was upstairs with a great view of the water…complete with a coffee and tea bar! Outside, you will find 4 Adirondack chairs by the water. The location was perfect, allowing us to be in downtown Bar Harbor and Acadia National Park in 10 - 15 minutes. Jacqueline is easily available and quick to answer any questions about the area.

We had the most wonderful time at this beautiful house! We will never forget the breathtaking views, relaxing in the Adirondack chairs, skipping rocks, and even taking a cold plunge! This was the perfect house for my family - plenty of room and so comfortable! The pictures do not do it justice - it’s perfect! This was truly a memorable family vacation! Thank you for everything! We hope to be back one day in the near future!

In the words of my 13 year old, our stay was, “Charming & beautiful!” In the words of my 9 year old, our stay was, “So amazing! It made me feel so cozy and welcomed! Great for adults and kids!” In the words of my husband, the property was, “Absolutely stunning!” I couldn’t agree more with my family. The property is perfect for a family of 4. The home is a nice mix of classic New England and modern updates. From the backyard, we marveled at the beautiful sunsets, enjoyed bird watching, and gazed in wonder at the stars. We enjoyed walking down to the beach. The property is the perfect spot to explore Acadia as it is very close to Acadia and Bar Harbor, but tucked away from the commotion and people.

Lovely waterfront house

We really enjoyed our stay at Jacequline place in Acadia. Her place is tastefully decorated, very clean with all the essentials provided. My communication with Jacequline was very prompt and the check in/ out process was super easy. We loved the location of the place as well. Only about 10 minutes drive from Bar harbor and being right by the water with beautiful views from the house was refreshing. There is a barbecue and fire pit available in the patio and in the back yard of the house. Overall we really enjoyed our stay and would recommend this place to others as well.

A Delightful Home in Every Way

Don't be put off with the limited number of reviews for this property. Jacqueline's home is a terrific vacation rental. We found it to be as described and pictured in the listing. The bayside of the house is very bright thanks to the walls of windows that overlook the cove. The house is very clean, even the blinds had been dusted (but who's checking?) We have rented a lot of VRBO homes over the years and this one was the cleanest. The kitchen is well equipped -- we cooked in for four nights and everything we needed for food preparation was there. The beds are very comfortable and the towels are plush. Plenty of beach towels are provided. We enjoyed looking at the water and beach outside of our door. The beachis easily accessed from the house and you can walk quite a ways during low tide. Jacqueline was a great host -- she responded quickly to email and texts. We contacted her one evening because of a problem starting the dishwasher (turned out to be operator error!). She was there in 15 minutes to help. I would definitely recommend this property to friends.
