BEAUTIFUL SUMMER RENTAL Nr ACADIA NATIONAL PARK & BAR HARBOR!
9.6 out of 10, Exceptional, 88 reviews
"This wonderful apartment is located on the Quiet Side of Mount Desert Island, which was a big plus for us! As an added bonus, there is a grocery store (and a laundromat) 0.1 mile away. The beds and sofas are comfortable, the kitchen fully stocked with all the bakeware, cookware, crockery, flatware and utensils you will need. The bathroom is tiny, but certainly serviceable. And the owners, Tim and Sian are regularly updating and improving the property. Overall, we had a delightful stay!"

"Overall, it was a nice place to relax at, especially after being out all day. I enjoyed the views from the deck and also walking to the pier for a closer look of the boats and sunsets. Everyone was able to spread out and still have room. The table was large & great for gaming & eating. There are good places to eat nearby, especially the one about 2 houses down. Plenty of parking is provided. (Driveway is a little tricky to find at first) Photos accurately represent the listing. It is a good...

"The property owner was wonderful providing info and help as needed. The kitchen was well equipped for those who like to prepare meals. Staying on the "quiet side" of Mt. Desert Island was good for us. We had easy access to Acadia National Park and could drop into the busyness of Bar Harbor when we wanted that experience."

"We loved staying at Acadia Yurts. Close proximity to many great restaurants and not too far of a drive to the national park or Bar Harbor, a little over 20 minutes. Property owners are very engaging, helpful and great at communicating with guests. The yurt has everything you could need, clean and comfortable. Situated in and around nature. A beautiful location, we would definitely return in the future."

"We were in town for a busy family reunion so didn’t spend much time at the house, but it had everything we needed for a restful sleep, a well-stocked kitchen where we could cook, and two full baths with plenty of soft, thick towels. It had a great view of the harbor. Breakfast on the deck was a treat. The furniture was really comfy and the location was convenient to the center of town."
