Charming farmhouse, perfect for two people! Everything was very clean, well stocked kitchen, and Kimberly was very responsive. The location was perfect for accessing Acadia, with a carriage road entrance around a mile and a half away. Nice back deck with a grill and a private back yard.

Great place to stay near Acadia. No AC is the main downfall if you’re staying when it’s hot out. The road is loud with the windows open.

Such a cute house with great character. Extremely close to all activities/places in Acadia. The house was very clean and the host was very nice, even leaving us a bottle of wine and snacks/drinks in the fridge! The house does get a little warm in hot weather with no AC, but plenty of fans are provided that make up for it.

It’s a lovely small house, at the right price. The host was a great communicator, and really thoughtful with a fridge stocked with welcome plates of fruit, cheese and crackers, and wine beer, and seltzers. So appreciated after a long trip. The house is attractive and neat. My only two dings are the noise from the highway (the house is very close to the busy road), and when it’s hot out, the house really heats up and the only relief is fans.
