Good Option, Unique Property
The property was quiet and well planned. We enjoyed our stay in the woods. Easy check in. The tiny house was clean but missing a few things: no luggage racks, no bathroom sink, no dish drying rack, only 1 kitchen towel. The public works facility next to the property opened early and you can hear dump trucks loading and backing up (beeping) for about 30 minutes starting around 7am.

The Cutest!!
I absolutely loved my stay in the Tiny House and in this adorable community on the Quiet Side. It was exactly the experience I was looking for. The amenities were beautiful, practical, well equipped, and quality. Hiking and biking was so much fun! And the spa facilities at Acadia Yurts were amazing! Loved every minute of my adventure!

Fall stay
The property is absolutely gorgeous and the owners are a pleasure to work and communicate with. The Precipice tiny house was fit with everything you needed. We wish we had the time to try their yoga and massage but we will definitely go back.

Cozy getaway
Great place to stay, the tiny house was clean, had all the amenities you need for a vacation and more, property was quiet and well maintained. Bar Harbor was only about 30 mins away and other hiking trails and recreational activities were even closer! WiFi and cell service (we have T-Mobile) were both pretty spotty, so if you HAVE to be connected for some reason, that may be a drawback. But there’s plenty to do and it’s a great opportunity to disconnect and spend time with family and get outside, so wasn’t important to us. Overall great place to stay on a beautiful property far enough away from touristy stuff to be quiet and relaxing, yet close enough to be able to have full days of exploration!

Clean, quiet, easy
Property was clean and located perfectly for us.... out of the hustle and bustle of Bar Harbor, but close enough to great restaurants and hiking trails. We weren't around enough to utilize the Wellness Center, but the people we saw going in and out seemed very happy. The things I loved about the tiny cabin that you won't see from the pictures is the French press coffee maker, access to washer/ dryer, and the water pressure of the shower. These things were so lovely to have day after day of hiking.

Nice secluded tiny spot
Bigger than a hotel room, smaller than a studio, surrounded by trees and steps from Acadia National Park. Enough said!
