Maine Get-Away!

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!

Honestly, our stay was wonderful! Eric is super communicative and always just a text message away. The studio itself was very clean and worked perfect! The only reason for the 4 star rating was that with the studio being on the lower level there is the constant sound of walking from above. Unfortunately for us our upstairs neighbor seemed to have kids that were running and jumping around at 5:30 every morning. It’s just something to be mindful of during your booking

This property was the perfect place for a peaceful trip to Acadia. It is beautifully put together. Southwest Harbor is a quaint town with everything you need and about 25 minutes to Bar Harbor. There are great trails Flying Mountain and Wonderland close by. Eric was great with recommendations for hikes and restaurants. He was flexible and responds quickly. We didn’t want to leave. If we return to Acadia we will stay here again.

Beautiful wooded setting

The property is a new build in a beautiful wooded setting and very close to Acadia National Park trailheads on the "quiet side" of Mount Desert Island. Eric was very accommodating (especially with respect to our dog). He kept in touch with us and was very responsive to our requests. (He let us know the other renters on the 2nd floor also had a dog and when the renters checked out and the new renters checked in.)

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.

Nicely appointed studio apartment a short drive from SW Harbor

My wife and I stayed in Eric's studio apartment in Southwest Harbor this past week, and overall we enjoyed our stay. The appliances were all new and the shower was excellent. Having a washer/dryer on premises was a lifesaver after hiking in the park. Eric was excellent at communicating with us throughout our stay. Some feedback regarding the cleanliness of the unit: - there were some pet hairs on the couch and bed when we checked in. I'm assuming these were from a prior renter's pet, since the property is pet friendly. - the floor of the unit was dirtier than we expected, even upon first inspection. The house has a gravel driveway, and it was very easy to track in dirt on the hard floors. A waterhog (or similar) entry mat inside the unit itself would go a long ways towards managing the dirt.

Quiet, peaceful place. Not 100% dog friendly.

Great location in regards to Acadia National Park. Home is located on a nice private road. Very quiet and peaceful. The host did a great job communicating on how to check in and was very responsive. There were, however, a few things that did disappoint us. Firstly, it was listed that this property was dog friendly. However, once we were reading the welcome book provided by the host, it stated that “dogs were not allowed on any furniture and if there was any excessive barking that you would be asked to leave without a refund.” This gave us some anxiety as dog owners with renters upstairs who also had a dog. We feel dogs will be dogs and they bark naturally. Secondly, the house was clean upon arrival, however the floor had a slippery, slimy feeling to it. We couldn’t walk around barefoot. Not sure what cleaning products are used. Overall, we enjoyed our stay and loved the surrounding trails!

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!!
