Beautiful Artistic Home Ideal Location for Acadia National Park and Bar Harbor

This creative vacation rental was designed by an extremely talented local artist. It is a short walk to downtown Bar Harbor, the shore, and offers easy access to Acadia National Park. The Island Explorer, located downtown, offers a free bus service to anywhere on the island. Located in a residential area, the top floor of this renovated home is a picture of serenity, peace and quiet. Surrounded by tall trees, the space is reminiscent of dwelling in a luxurious tree house! Enjoy brilliant stars on a custom stargazing bench, relaxing on a walkout deck off the master bedroom, or sitting on the private covered front porch. The spectacular bathroom is the showcase featuring a one of a kind breathtaking tile creation. As you sit in the jacuzzi tub you will be swept away into a vision of Frenchman's bay featuring the elusive Orca whale. Not your average run of the mill vacation rental. Words can not describe what it has to offer.


Golfing: The historic Kebo Vally golf course is located just over the hill, offering world-class golfing.

Children: Directly across the street you will find Glen Mary woods, a city owned park, adjacent is the Glen Mary wading pool, perfect for younger children. Picnic are, restroom and swings are located next to the pool.

massage: On site massage available.

Great stay!
This VRBO was perfect for our stay in Bar Harbor! While a lot of stuff is closed in the winter, it was close to everything we wanted to do. The space was clean and a good size for our family of four. Would love to stay here again when we visit!

Great Location, Clean, and Comfortable
We loved our stay here. The location is excellent—10 minute walk to downtown Bar Harbor and 10 minute drive to Acadia National Park. The place was clean and comfortable and had a well stocked kitchen. The beds were comfortable, the decor was warm and inviting; there was three porches/balconies we had access to as well! We would definitely stay here again.

Wonderful place in a quiet neighborhood - away from the crowds in Bar Harbor, but close enough to walk to shops and restaurants. Everything was as advertised. Our only suggestion would be to add a grab bar in the bathroom tub.

Pre-season Acadia
Stayed in Acadia before season started. The property is conveniently located, comfortable, and a terrific place to enjoy Acadia NP and located on a quiet street with off-street parking which would be even more desirable during peak season. The kitchen is large with all of the conveniences of home, although there is plentiful dining in the area if you don't wish to cook. This was an ideal setting and location for a family trip.

Perfect location
This was a perfectly located rental within walking distance to everything we needed. There is nothing like a July 4th in Bar Harbor! My only suggestion is to update the furniture. The sofa was so uncomfortable that no one could sit on it.

Great, cozy home with everything a family needs
The home was very clean and cozy and we enjoyed having the park so close for our toddler to play. Easy walk to downtown/water front for coffees, food, shopping. Very responsive home owners. If anyone has mobility concerns, they should be aware the apartment is upstairs and climbing into the tub for a shower is a big step on tile, so take care. It was a great spot for us and I would stay here again.

Perfect spot in Bar Harbor.
This home is on a quiet street across from a wooded park. close walking distance to main street and all of the shops and restaurants. Spacious rooms and everything we needed was there. Hiking trails nearby that take you right into Acadia Park. Strong WIFI, cable t.v., full kitchen, plenty of hot water for back to back showers. 2 Out door seating areas (decks). Cant miss with this property.

Great getaway!
The very sweet and conscientious owners made our trip destination extremely comfortable, as they stocked the kitchen will all necessary appliances and equipment. The location of the rental is perfect for walking to the town of Bar Harbor, or driving to locations outside of town. Overall, would give this a 10 out of 10!

Excellent Bar Harbor Week
The three bedroom apartment was upstairs, private, and cool at night with cross breezes. The air conditioner was on when we arrived (a hot week), which was a nice touch, but we did not need it in the morning or evening or overnight. Just a few blocks from town, and a few miles from Acadia, the neighborhood is leafy and quiet. The owners (right downstairs) respected our privacy all week and were friendly when we met up two times in the backyard by the separate entrance. We hope to be back. It could not have been much better.
