Comfortable and Homey
Our first impression was uncertain. We couldn’t find the house number on the building and the outside needed some sprucing up. The spiral staircase leading to the upstairs apt was a little challenging to navigate, especially with suitcases or groceries. But once inside, we found the small apartment to be charming and homey.

Good location, old house
Nice location in relation to Acadia NP. The House is on a busy street and it being an older house allowed for traffic noise and cold drafts. The host was great with solid communication and nice amenities of snacks and toiletries if needed. TV with streaming in the living room was useful. Security was good and off-street parking was nice. There was a musty odor in the entryway and living room that stayed with us the entire time. The attention to detail in the bathroom was lacking.. exposed rusty nailheads and screws in the very small shower. The bathroom was serviceable, but have come to expect better from VRBO stays at this price.

Quaint and Cozy
Our trip to move our son into school was made so much easier here at this quaint and cozy place. The owners have so many personal touches that made us feel right at home. Very bright, clean and all the amenities one needs for a trip away, right down to the basket of snacks. Would absolutely stay here again!

Kristan was a great host. She was available and provided all the essentials. The property was walking distance to downtown. The building was quite old and unassuming on the outside but the inside of the apartment was fixed up nicely. The shower was very small but usable. Would stay again.

Quaint apartment
This place has old-house charm. VERY clean. Met every kitchen need. Kristan was very responsive and kind. The outside does not look like much, but don’t let it surprise you. It is lovely inside. The bathroom is super tiny, but we weren’t staying there for the bathroom! Great location to get to Acadia within 30 minutes and 40 minutes to Bar Harbor. Great place for a couple.

Perfect Getaway
We stayed here for a few days while visiting Acadia National Park. While it was about a 40 minute drive into the park we really didn’t mind because we got to have a bigger place to relax after our active days. The full kitchen and living room were great. It felt very homey. A cute town for wandering around and the apartment was really stocked with everything you could need. We had an amazing trip. Thank you, Kristan!

Clean Accommodations and Terrific host.
Kristen was a great host. She was quick to respond to me and was thorough in her information. The apartment was very clean and had plenty of high quality towels and linens. It was an easy drive to Acadia and my husband especially liked staying in Ellsworth away from the hustle and bustle of Bar Harbor!

Really great apartment close to bar harbor without being in motels downtown with tourists
Great little apartment that felt private and in a very cute town of Ellsworth with little restaurants and a delish ice cream shop :) apartment felt private and was spacious. The host Kristan was so personable. The apartment was decorated really nicely and she had so many little touches to make it feel like a home. She provided plenty of linens, snacks, and coffee to make our stay comfortable. The apartment had plenty of space despite a small bathroom but was nice and cool with AC in a few rooms. I would recommend anyone stay in Ellsworth, specifically here, if they plan to go to bar harbor. Easy parking and a quiet town with some parks and places to walk around. Kristan was an amazing host!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. It was clean, comfortable and easy to contact Kristan. The drive to Acadia was beautiful and about 25 mins to get to the park itself. Within the park, we did additional driving to our destinations but enjoyed the beautiful views

We really enjoyed our stay! Kristan was very easy to communicate with. We loved all the little touches. Apartment was very cute and cozy. Our only con would be the street noise at night. It seemed to be a fairly busy street even throughout the night. Regardless, we enjoyed our stay and the location of the property.
