About this property

The "Barn Loft"

  • The "Barn Loft" designed by owner/builder was recently completed for the 2023 fall season. Located adjacent to the owner's residence in town Southwest Harbor this property is off the street and surrounded by 5 acres of fields, trees, and views of Acadia's western mountains providing the perfect country escape feeling.
    Second floor, completely furnished, spacious open concept living area with full kitchen, dining, 2 bedrooms and 2 full baths. Master bedroom with king bed and en suite, guest bedroom with 2 double beds.
    Maximum occupancy for 6. Cable, WIFI, heat pump, and deck seating.
    It should be noted that due to the second floor location, this property would not be suitable for anyone who cannot manage a lengthy staircase, or for small children as the staircase is open (no door, no gate).
    The heat pump provides heat and air conditioning and is located in the open living area. Bedrooms do not have air conditioning units however, they do each have fans and thermal blinds.
    Sorry no pets, and no smoking.
    Walking distance to shopping, restaurants, marina, bus route, and minutes away from Acadia National Park, biking, hiking, swimming, fishing, and boating.
    This property truly is the perfect escape.
    About the host - Wes is a 6th generation Southwest Harbor native whose passion is spending time outside. He and his wife Dawn decided to start their dream project, so, they began with building the barn in 2020. They are very excited to offer the "Barn Loft". The couple's love of the outdoors is the inspiration of their project. They want to provide a relaxing place for vacationers to escape and enjoy the beauty of the quiet side of the island and all that Acadia National Park has to offer.
