We had a great time at the farm house! We were greeted with a ton of fresh veggies and eggs when we arrived, and we even got more eggs later in the stay because they were so good. The hosts were really great, made us feel welcomed and provided us with the few odds and ends that we had forgot to bring. The kitchen is well outfitted - we even steamed lobster - and the whole setting is really peaceful. We spent the long weekend in Acadia, which was a little less than an hour away. Drive didn't feel too long, so this was a good base for our hiking.

Annie and Eric are great hosts and communicators. They answered my questions patiently within minutes and gave detailed info about the directions. We were staying on the second floor of a cottage. The decoration and settings are sooooo cozy and we felt at home at once. View from the terrace is fantastic and you may see Annie work on the farm there. We even went picking blueberries during the stay (though not find much). Walked through the woods, you can see the river and enjoy your own river beach. Highly recommend this place!!!

The hosts did everything to ensure we felt right at home, including having vegetables and eggs from the farm for us. The location is incredibly peaceful, if you're looking for a getaway retreat - this is definitely the place. If we're back in this area again for vacation, we'll be staying here again!

We were welcomed with a fresh eggs, produce, and friendly faces. The setting is gorgeous, and the apartment lacks nothing. We were there for a conference in Bucksport, but it felt like a vacation.

We had a lovely stay at the farm. Clean, comfortable, quiet and oh so peaceful. We were presented with a big basket of freshly harvested vegetables on our second day. A quick walk to the waterfront provides opportunity of a long walk on a spectacular and interesting rocky Mane beach. Simple beauty.

We loved our stay at East-West farm, the hosts were lovely & made sure we were comfortable. The farm was so peaceful, but close enough to Acadia and basic needs (grocery, gas...). The apartment was spacious, cute and very clean! Both bedrooms had comfortable beds and a floor fouton mattress perfect for a kiddo. Had EVERYTHING we needed in bathroom, kitchen & laundry - just fantastic & a great price! Loved the fresh eggs & veggies too - Thanks so very much for a wonderful first ever Airbnb stay!

A nice spacious apartment in a lovely and quiet area close enough to visit Acadia national park. We really enjoyed the hospitality, tips and fresh vegetables. The sunsets were wonderful and so were the deer that then appeared. The washing machine and dryer were very much appreciated after 2 weeks of travelling.

Nous avons beaucoup apprécié notre séjour dans ce lieu paisible. L'appartement était très propre, bien éclairé et doté de toutes les commodités pour cuisiner. Par les fenêtres nous avons pu admirer la vue sur nature, les moutons de la ferme et le jardin de nos hôtes. Nous avons d'ailleurs été très bien accueillis par Éric et Annie qui nous ont remis des légumes frais de leur jardin à notre arrivée. À quelques minutes de l'appartement, nous avons pu visiter le bel observatoire "Penobscot narrow bridge" ainsi que le fort Knox. Nous avons pu nous rendre au parc Acadia situé à environ une heure de route. Un bon pied à terre pour visiter la rėgion !

We had a great time in Orland. Molly and Shawn were so friendly and helpful, answering tons of questions and making sure we had the best time. If you want to get lost in Maine for a couple days, this is the place to go!

What a WONDERFUL place! I arrived midday to meet some of the extended family coming back from a hunt. The space was perfectly clean and ready, with detailed instructions available, and a wood fire waiting for a match(URL HIDDEN)was here for a chance to get some writing done, and it was a magical space for that productivity. Sharing breakfast with the turkeys, chickens, pigs, and horses was a delight, and I had a fantastic long, sunny walk around the property, through the blueberry fields, and around a small beaver pond. Shawn and Molly are wonderful hosts. They have a way of life here that's wonderful to be a part of, even briefly. I couldn't recommend a stay with them more!

Molly and Shawn were very accommodating and their efficiency is not only adorable, but clean and inviting.

We had a short visit but really enjoyed every moment. The efficiency was great. From the kitchen you peer out over the garden. I could see myself living full time in the space. More spacious than I expected. Well planned out. The hosts were happy to give us a quick tour and talk about what they have going on there. I really enjoyed meeting their adorable pigs. We took a hike down one of the trails past the blueberry fields. Beautiful scenery. We arrived in October, so the blueberries were done for the season. We found a few stragglers and tried them. Sweet and delicious. Would definitely recommend this rental to anyone, especially anyone interested in becoming more self reliant. The hosts seem to have a system that works great for them.

Wir hatten einen tollen Aufenthalt auf Molly und Shawn Farm. Unsere 1-jährigen Tochter zu treffen liebte die Pferde, Schweine und Enten und Eigentum ist ideal für die Erkundung Acadia (etwa eine Stunde entfernt) und näher Sehenswürdigkeiten. Wir verbrachten Zeit auf der lokalen See und Stadt und genossen Hummer zurück in der Wohnung zu kochen. Wir empfehlen gründlich hier zu bleiben. Die ganze Familie war warm und einladend und die Lage war ruhig und malerisch.

The animals were so amazing to play with, and a stroll through the blueberry field is a perfect way to end the day. Everyone we met on the property was really nice and available to answer our questions. It's a great place to escape to!

Lovely spot to spend the evening with a super comfy bed!

Wonderful place to stay! Hosts were wonderful- very understanding of later than anticipated arrival, excellent information about the place as well as the surrounding area, and very friendly. Communication was prompt and easy, driving directions given were excellent. The stay was even more than we hoped for. Beautiful efficiency apartment, the pictures do not do it justice. We left inspired to use clean unique design skills in our own place! The bed was very comfortable, and it was a very peaceful getaway. We only wish we would have had more time to get to know the farm and the immediate area. Until next time!

카트리나의 Steepled 교회 재산에 우리의 여행은 점프에서 훌륭했다; 우리의 주인은 매우 우리의 요구에 수용하고, 그녀의 통신은 정직하고 빠른이었다. 아파트는 뽀얀이고 세부 사항은 기이했다. 추천 할 것입니다.

아파트는 깨끗하고 잘 보관했다. 우리는 단지 하룻밤 숙박, 그래서 모든 시설을 즐길 수있는 시간이 없었다. 우리는 분명히 다시 거기에있을 것이다.

Großen Raum, der eine große Gruppe unterbringen können, aber war mehr als genug für unsere Familie von 4. Es gibt viele gute Noten - Bücher, Tee, Kaffee, Spiele, DVD-Player und Broschüren Dinge hervorheben in der Gegend zu tun. Gehen Sie besuchen Katrina in der Kneipe im Hafen und haben die Fladen mit Huhn Wurst - es ist zu sterben. Insgesamt ein ausgezeichneter Platz!

Great place. Easy to get to Bangor and to UMaine. Katrina is very friendly. We had a nice visit with her as well. We will be back!

It's such a lovely place! We were so glad that we could spend time in Katrina's house. If we come to the area again we'll definitely stay again! I would recommend this stay to everybody.

This was the loveliest of spots that felt like home away from home. Everything we could have possibly wanted was right there for us. Katrina was very responsive to my text messages both am & pm. The sunflowers that greeted us really made us feel welcomed. We will be back for sure!

Stayed during Thanksgiving while visiting family. Katrina was very accommodating and the space worked great for our needs.

A lovely place to stay. I would recommend it to anyone looking in the area.

Great place that's located on a scenic hill... would love to stay again here :)

The good: The view from the apartment is spectacular. The hot tub is a great amenity and sitting in it listening to the ocean is awesome. The area is beautiful and the neighbors are very nice. The information sheet is very handy and was useful in knowing what to do in the area. The bad: The description on AirBnB talks about "The Space" and "The Nest". Until we arrived, we didn't realize these were two DIFFERENT places. Apparently, the Nest is the apartment we stayed in and the Space is the house next door. But, since it was all on the listing for The Nest, we didn't realize it was two different places. Also, it has a CHARCOAL chiminea in the room and charcoal is not safe to be used in an indoor setting. It puts off carbon dioxide and since there is not a CO2 detector in the apartment, this could be deadly. The main issue we had with the apartment is that there is a hose going through the wall from the kitchen sink to the shower. You have to hook that up to use the shower and the water pressure is very low. The water heater sends hot water intermittently so the water doesn't stay a constant temperature. Saying the apt has a shower when the water supply is a hose from the kitchen sink that you have to hold in your hand the entire time you shower is a little misleading. When the information says, "I am on the beach", that means you are overlooking a beach and you have to go down an embankment, then onto dozens of steps with a rickety handrail to the beach. Getting back up those steps at night is not easy. The description is not clear as to what you are actually getting when you arrive.

Le nid était absolument merveilleux. Une si belle vue depuis le pont, et le bain à remous était parfait. Assez proche de quelques excellents restaurants aussi!

The "Nest" was just the escape we were looking for. The place itself was perfect, from the Pollock-esque floor and "found objects" throughout, to the winding stairs through the woods opening at the private beach. Days were spent swimming, floating in the ocean on the provided tethered rafts, running on the beach or clamming on Sears Island (about 7 minutes down the road). Nights were spent in front of the fire cooking ours day's catch on the beach and soaking in the hot tub on the deck. While we were unable to meet Barbara, she provided well laid out information of the surrounding area and an illustrated map the that makes it super easy to navigate around. Barbara, thank you for sharing your home, we had wonderful time.

We had a great time at the Nest. Barbara was helpful but not intrusive and the studio couldn't have been more perfect for our little getaway. Easy access to both Acadia/Bar Harbor and Camden, with a great beach and friendly neighbors. Thanks for helping us take a wonderful vacation!

We had a terrific time in The Nest. We brought some excellent seafood from Shutes market nearby and enjoyed the excellent views from the deck of The Nest. The space is cozy and fun-- feels like a cabin meets a treehouse-- so only ideal for 1 person or an established couple who is comfortable in tight quarters... just a curtain separates the toilet from the kitchen and there is the same water source for the kitchen sink and the shower. Very beautiful setting right by the beach. The host (Barbara) also gave us excellent recommendations, such as doing the Great Pond Mountain hike nearby. Check-out time was rather early but that worked fine with our travel plans.

I stayed at Barbara's place last weekend and loved it. "The Nest" is a cozy, quirky apartment located above Barbara's art studio. Outside, I found a deck overlooking Penobscot Bay, twisty stairs winding down to a private beach, and lupines growing in a garden across the road. Inside, I found everything I needed for a weekend away (kitchenette, bathroom, double bed, towels), plus flowers on the kitchen table and a view of the water through the sliding glass door. Barbara's artwork hangs on the walls, and even the tile-work is one of a kind, with coffee cup fragments arranged in mosaic patterns. I took advantage of the great location (halfway between Camden and Acadia) and ventured out during the day, but with lots to do at Barbara's place (Adirondack chairs on the beach, a hot tub on the deck), I would have been just as happy staying put. Barbara herself was an excellent host—welcoming and kind. We chatted on the phone before I arrived to set up a flexible check-in time, and she recommended some things to see in the area. Her neighbors were friendly as well; it was Fourth of July weekend, and they invited me to watch their fireworks show on the beach. A wonderful stay. Hope to come back someday!

Barbara made us feel welcome instantly (welcome card, fresh flowers). She is a very nice, open and relaxed host you can always contact. Her response times for mails are also really quick. The nest is beautifully decorated with lots of details, very cozy and has an amazing view to the atlantic ocean. Not to mention the hot tub on the deck. The nest has everything you need for a simple vacation in a peaceful and quiet neighbourhood. We enjoyed the trip and can recommend the location.

We did not get to meet Barbara, but her assistant Ruth was very accommodating, even when we were dawdling slowly up Hwy 1 enjoying the Maine views! Both Barbara and Ruth communicated very well with us, and it was easy to find. We had an off and on restful time at the Nest. We were told in advance that there would be other people on the property, but before arriving we had no idea what that really meant. It meant the "private" beach was shared with the many happy frolickers which we didn't quite foresee, and it turned out to be a big wedding party! The children were literally under our bedroom before 9am doing crafts in the studio, and well, needless to say there was no sleeping in that day! Luckily we are happily married ourselves, and took it in stride. We just didn't realize that the workspace is directly under the Nest, with just a wooden floor. We absolutely LOVED the hot tub on the deck, and managed some quiet time before the wedding party arrived. We loved having a full fridge and what a view from the deck at all hours! We had a few little bonfires on the beach (in our private 'strip' of the private beach) and loved looking at the incredible night sky. We had plenty of wood to burn, a hammock, and two sweet little beach candles near our two adirondack chairs! The hot water was intermittent, and the shower is "quirky" to say the least, but the place is obviously well loved and for a couple or a single person willing to be rustic for a few days it was just fine. Not too many amenities (no Kleenex or a sponge, and we had to ask Ruth for coffee filters), and we were asked not to use beach towels on the beach. But I understand how sand can be for a washer/dryer, and there were beach "cloths" provided. Sound travels in that quiet area, and there will always be someone chipping wood or blowing leaves depending on the time of year. For such a beautiful area, it was not "thickly settled" with tons of homes and traffic, and that's what we hoped to find. We were there to visit relatives in Bangor, and it was a perfect location for a quick in and out to civilization. We had some terrific meals nearby, and it was easy to find provisions within an easy drive. But next time we'll consider 'the Cottage' with our family members for a beach party!

Tapley farm is a gorgeous place! Carol was very helpful in our discussions about the possibility of hosting our 2017 wedding there.

We enjoyed our time in Brroksville staying in Aunt Mary's Attic. The peaceful surroundings, and warm welcome were a treat. Carol provided us with information and checked in on us to make sure we were comfortable etc. The access to the water was great and we were able to store our kayaks in her boat house. Very friendly and charming hosts. I would love to stay here again.

What a wonderful trip! The hosts were great. Dick greeted us when we arrived and gave us a key to the studio. The horses, Mary and Patty also came to the edge of the fence to say Hello. Our 2 year old daughter was thrilled. The Studio was very charming and private. We cooked every night except for one and the kitchen has everything you need to put together a meal. The surrounding countryside is postcard perfect. Local farmers market and hiking trails were a hit. Just over an hour from Acadia. Drive is very pretty so it doesn't feel long at all. Nervous Nellys in Deer isle is a must! Lots to do and very peaceful. Would definitely head back.

We had a wonderful time at the studio! The space was exactly as described. The shower was great after a long day of hiking, and the bed was very comfortable. It was so nice to wake up to ducks quacking. Morning runs around the neighborhood were lovely, and the water was so nice to be by to sit and drink coffee. Definitely a memorable stay!

a very cozy sweet place to stay and to relax. Everything was exactly like in the airbnb description. We enjoyed the stay very much

Absolutely terrific stay at Carol's farm. Loved the studio - so well decorated and appointed, with a terrific kitchen. Carol and Dick were immaculate and generous hosts. The ducks and chickens laid some delicious eggs, and the blueberries were ripe! An idyllic spot and a great place to call home during our Maine vacation.

I had a nice week-long stay at the studio. I was in Maine for work and this served well for me to use in the evenings and get ready in the morning. Carol and others living near quarters were pleasant and helpful. The farm is charming and adjacent field is gorgeous in the morning. I wish I would have had more time during the day to go for a swim and explore more of the area.

My fiance and I just wanted to have the coastal maine experience. We wanted to get away for just a weekend. This really was the perfect place for us. Carol left fresh eggs for us and we cooked them up the next morning. It was such a good start to the day. It was clean and the kitchen is great for those who want to cook all the fresh ingredients in the area. We slept so well here and felt so relaxed. We hope to come back soon.

We had a wonderful time in Castine. Goody's apartment was cozy and very clean. It is right in the center of this beautiful village and located nearby the little harbor. There is a sweet Bar/restaurant at the waterfront where we enjoyed listening to live music. Castine is a good starting point to explore Arcadia National Park and other attractions. Everything was as described and even better! There was plenty of space for 4 people. Goody was very helpful and she gave us many tips about what to do in the area. We can really recommend it! If we ever come back to Castine again we will definetly stay at Goody's apartment.

We enjoyed our stay a lot! The place is nice and comfortable and located in a very nice quiet town that was fun to walk around and explore after larger hikes in Acadia. There are also a lot of good restaurants and amazing ice cream places on the way to and from Acadia!

Goody B's place is lovely—close to everything in downtown Castine, yet quiet and comfortable enough for a relaxing night at home. Castine is a really neat place, and I'm glad that she's made the apartment available for guests.

The apartment was perfect for our weekend get-away to Castine! The location is ideal with a grocery store next door and downtown Castine is within walking distance (restaurants, shops, the water). The bedrooms are spacious and everything was well-appointed and clean. Goody was hospitable and friendly. We would recommend Goody's place to anyone and hope to return in the future!

Great place. Right in town, close to thd Variety, Markel's and the town dock. Bigger than we expected. Two levels. Nice living room. Small but well-equipped kitchen. Spacious bedrooms. Super comfortable beds.

Very beautiful, inside and outside... Donna was a wonderful hostess and to our surprise had an outdoor fire waiting for us on our return from our outings!! Totally recommend to all visitIng Maine. Just remember the name "The Loons Nest"...

If you are reading this review to see what's "wrong", read no further. Homemade muffins and cookies, extra blankets for a cool night, a rocking chair, comfy bed, heat, loons calling both in the morning AND evening and swimming right off the dock just yards away, gorgeous sunrises over the water that you can watch from the comfort of your (URL HIDDEN) was a perfect stay in a very private setting with delightful people nearby. Evening fireside visits were delightful. And Donna went out of her way to help us find things to do, even as far away as Cape Cod on our way up, and great restaurants both near and far!

Our hosts greeted us upon arrival and always checked if we needed anything

Donna and Dave were fabulous hosts! They had a binder filled with information about the area and the room was filled with anything you might have wanted/forgotten--from water bottles to bug spray and snacks. As we were up there for a wedding, they were very considerate to ask us if we'd need to borrow an iron. If we're ever back in Maine we'll definitely be booking with Donna and Dave again.

We had the most amazing time staying at the Loon's Nest. If you are looking for a true Maine woods experience, this is it, complete with outstanding hospitality and warmth. The lake pristine, the views are wonderful, and the accommodations are great. It's secluded but also not too far from Acadia/Bar Harbor or downtown Ellsworth. The room is clean and well furnished, a perfect place to relax after a long day hiking. Donna and Dave are perhaps the best hosts we have ever had. We had wonderful conversation with them over a bonfire and s'mores, and were quick to offer suggestions, help, and whatever we needed. We are really glad we chose the Loon's Nest, and can't wait to go back some day.

The cabin was comfortable, the setting was beautiful, and Donna and Dave went out of their way to make us feel welcome. We really enjoyed swimming in the lake, kayaking, and talking to Donna and Dave over the campfire.

The "Loon's Nest" was everything we expected it would be and more! Donna and Dave were fabulous and gracious hosts! Donna equipped the apartment with everything you could ever think of! Dave built us wonderful fires each night and the views from the apartment and the dock were indescribable! The guidance and information they provided us with throughout our stay was extremely helpful for us to make the most of our short, long weekened 8 hours from home! We would absolutely recommend this place to anyone and we sincerely hope we can make it back again!

Unfortunately due to an extreme medical emergency I was unable to stay with Donna. She was very friendly and accommodating throughout the booking process and I am sorry I was unable to stay in her residence

Morgan Bay Zendo Retreat Center is a beautiful retreat center and the hosts are very welcoming. We really enjoyed talking with Hugh and Heather. The flowers we found at our doorstep on the second day were a very nice touch. We especially enjoyed the pond right outside of our cabin door. It was a very tranquil scene to come back to at the end of long day in Bar Harbor and Acadia. Definitely a very natural experience and if you aren't comfortable with some of Gods little creatures in an up close and personal way, you may find this location difficult, but if you don't mind that you will definitely enjoy staying here.

Beautiful and relaxing place to stay. Friendly people who allowed me to join one of their group medidation session. Inspiring experience.

The host was very helpful and reached out before our arrival. Allowed for flexible arrival time. The path felt VERY long, especially in the dark with heavy luggage. The room was accurate as described and clean. Bathrooms are no seat, no flush outdoor stallswimming- not in the description. Quiet atmosphere. Definitely a but of a drive to most desirable vacation locations. Feel like we should have done a campground given the price differential and amenities.

Heather met us at the Zendo early after we called and even called us when we missed the sign. The suite retreat was very nice and the adjacent shower was accommodating. The Zendo was SO relaxing. It was the perfect quiet weekend in Maine.

Heather was very friendly over the phone and talked me into the area perfectly. The location is lovely, a quiet retreat full of wildflowers, just minutes from an oceanside trail. The stars at night were breathtaking. Having access to the kitchen was great: it was very convenient and I really loved the natural vegetarian vibe. During their meditation gathering on Sunday morning I bumped into a friend of a friend; how serendipitous! While the park is a bit of a drive (45 min) it was nice stay away from the August weekend crowds.

We enjoyed our stay at Morgan Bay Zendo, it was a peaceful retreat away from the hustle-and-bustle of Acadia National Park, but close enough to get to it easily. Everything was very clean and it was nice to have access to the kitchen and meeting room. I definitely would recommend a stay there.

This is a special offering. I chose this place because of it's proximity to Acadia (~45min), but I think this place is a worthy destination unto itself (esp for things like solo writing retreats). The room is modestly furnished and features a private shower and sink; composting toilets (my first time with these) are a few steps away from the suite; and there's a spacious, bright kitchen. The surrounding grounds are lovely and inviting. I suggest arriving while it's light out if possible-- the entrance to the property will be easier to find and the longish (beautiful) path to the Zendo easier to navigate. If you take a 10 minute walk down Cross Rd, you'll come to a vista of Morgan Bay; can climb down to the rocks and see scores of crabs and baby crabs scuttling around! Also, if you have time, I'd also recommend exploring the townlets southeast of Morgan Bay, such as Blue Hill and Deer Isle.

Such a wonderful alternative to staying in a motel. Lots of privacy in an immaculate apartment. The beds were comfortable and the amenities generous. Denise is a perfect host and made sure everything was just right. I wouldn't hesitate to stay again.

We really had a great time here, the little to big details made all the difference...Fresh eggs, other essential & non essential treats, fresh tulips, which happen to be my favorites. Really useful advise on where to go, what to do with particular attention to running trails, as I'm in training for Boston marathon, where really appreciated! I loved the back patio & it was lovely sitting there a few mornings it was sunny! We loved Maine & this location was great to explore the surrounding areas of outstanding beauty!

The apartment is very generous, well equipped and has a great view of the bay. It is located above the offices of the campsite, where we were always helped very friendly. Very nice bathrooms, good beds, "master bedroom" with a sea view - fantastic! all the best, would book immediately

Every question we had was answered in a timely fashion. Typical check-in was until 6:30pm, but Debra arranged it so we could arrive later with no complaint. She just kept reminding me "you are on vacation... relax.. we will do what we can to make your stay great." The apartment was beautiful as seen in the pictures. It was very clean and had all the amenities listed plus some. The refrigerator had ice and water in the door which made daily treks easier. It was great to be that close to the water. At low tide you can walk down to the water and explore some tide pools. The location of the apartment is above the office for the Moorings RV park, but it is very quiet. The office employees were very nice and helpful and were willing to make destination suggestions if you asked. The "handy-man" was extremely efficient, during our stay a breaker tripped late at night and it was fixed in five minutes. The location is about 90 minutes from Acadia. It is a good centralized location to explore the coast of Maine. I would gladly come back.

Everything is good. But guest need know:this is RV campground. The owner need show RV with view picture. They are very friendly service. Very quiet and good place too. Whatever we had a good stay!! Thanks.

Sedge was a very communicative host, and handled a tough situation very well. We were arriving late and the previous guest had accidentally taken the key, so Sedge had to trouble shoot and made sure we were able to access the space late at night when we arrived. The space is very clean, and really simple: not particularly homey, but the beds were really comfy, and Sedge left out a bunch of brochures and maps and helpful tips for the area. We can't complain!

Sedge has a great home for air bnb. The house was freshly painted and extremely clean. The host left us coffee and juice which was a nice touch. The beds and bedding were comfortable and clean. Sedge was fast to get back to me and communicated well. It's about a half hour from Bar Harbor and for the time of the year Sedge has a very reasonable rate. The neighborhood was very quiet with no visible neighbors. The house is close to a road so with the windows open you may hear a truck or two at the stoplight but nothing that was too distracting to get good sleep

Hard to find house number, communication/key handoff worked fine.

Host would not answer phone when we needed help locating the house. The house is immediately adjacent to a major highway, with all the noise one would expect. Furnishings were sparse, with barely enough plates and utensils for two to eat. The good is that it was clean, and the beds comfortable.

Loved the Historic Allen House. Serge provided plates, pans, and utencils plus towels which made the stay convenient. Very easy to get to Bar Harbor and Acadia.

Leading up to the reservation, Sedge was very communicative and was even able to accommodate a late check-in in the wee hours of the morning (we got in at 3AM). He sent us detailed directions to ensure we were able to find the house. Location of the house is extremely convenient as its located right by a supermarket (Shaws), several drug stores, as well as late night fast food drive-thrus. I would recommend checking out Sylvia's Cafe nearby for breakfast/brunch. The drive to Bar Harbor is also 20-30 minutes away depending on traffic so not too bad if you are looking for a cheaper alternative to visit Acadia/Bar Harbor. The house itself is partially hidden behind a furniture store and can be a bit confusing if you don't know where to look. Its an attached house but the doors leading to the rest of the house have been locked on both sides so it is truly separated from the rest of the house. The house is clean and decently well-appointed. The kitchen looks to be a recent remodel and plates/basic cutlery are provided along with a coffeemaker. The layout of the house contains two floors with both bedrooms on the upper floors and the living room/kitchen on the 1st floor. The sofa in the living room is comfortable enough to sleep one person. Bathroom is clean and shower has good water pressure with hot water available at any given moment, no complaints. Fresh towels are provided for you. Please note there is NO hairdryer. We had a bit of a mix-up regarding the house being cleaned up before we arrived but Sedge quickly corrected this and was extremely apologetic about the issue as there was a miscommunication with the cleaning agency. He rectified the issue and made sure to follow up with us to ensure everything went smoothly. Overall, would recommend staying here again.

It was spacious, clean, well situated, comfortable with plenty of off street parking. We made some suggestions to Sedge regarding further improvements and he readily accepted them. These premises are ideally located for sightseeing to surrounding areas, such as Acadia (well worth a visit, especially Bar Harbor).

First and foremost Sedge was a gracious host. I had no issues when it came to communicating with him. The location was excellent as it was within walking distance (less than a mile) from restaurants and pubs located in Ellsworth. The place itself was very nice and clean. Our family was able to enjoy this as our base camp to explore Acadia National Forest (our primary reason for visiting) and we will stay here again if we find ourselves in this location in the future.
