The property matched the online description very accurately. The rooms, beds and common area were spacious and comfortable. So happy we found a quality place to stay with our family and dog!

Perfect location for exploring both the park and Bar Harbor. Parking was great as well.

We loved the location, right on long pond. We loved the kayaks and used them several times. Area was quiet, peaceful and beautiful. Areas of improvement would be the master room mattress, very firm. Woke up sore. The fridge took four days to cool food in fridge and freeze food in freezer. Furniture was outdated and couch needed cleaned. It had visible dog hair and I could not sit on due to skin allergy to dander. New pots and pans would be a great addition. Many were old. Overall we enjoyed our stay and those areas would not deter us from staying again, just wanted to give accurate review of our stay. We appreciate you sharing your house and allowing others to stay. It was a nice vacation and got to enjoy all Acadia and Bar Harbor had to offer. Canada was also accommodating with check out instructions that could not be met due to early departure. Thanks again we had an amazing time.
