Fall time fun
First time on the east coast and we wanted to stay on the ocean. We found the cutest little bungalow with the best views at the Barnacle! The place was immaculate and had all the amenities. And it was far enough away from the hustle and bustle of the busier areas to make you feel like you were in your own little world. Although it took a small commute (30 minutes) to get to Acadia National Park it was worth the drive. The Blue Hill peninsula where the Barnacle is located is a great mixed drive through the countryside and ocean side. We saw lots of wildlife (deer, bobcat and a seal right out front!) We had an amazing experience at the Barnacle and wished we would’ve spent more time just relaxing there! But there is so much to see and do within a hour that we wanted to fit in as much as possible! It was the perfect base camp for us to rest and soak in the beauty of the surrounding area. Although we had a small glitch with our communication with the hosts it was remedied very quickly. They are wonderful people and truly love their property and ability to make sure you are taken care of well! I highly recommend staying there if you want a quiet getaway right on the water!

The photos definitely do not do this property justice. The location is perfect for a "get away from it all" vacation. We reconnected with our boys by "unplugging" from technology and just enjoyed the raw beauty of Maine. The house has everything you could want, including all of the "little things" you may have forgotten to take with you. Our family loves "The Barnacle" and we look forward to returning in the near future! Thank you for sharing your home with us, and letting us know the history behind this treasure.

Great spot
The title says all that needs to be said. The kitchen was fully equipped, it was a pleasure to cook there. The cold well water tasted great, and the view was amazing. It’s a beautiful, quiet place to relax!

i feel the inside pictures of this house doesn’t do it justice. very cozy and nice inside. our family loved staying here. It was so fun to go down by the bay and look at shells and starfish. although it is a bit away from Acadia, i am so thankful we stayed here away from all the businesses of Acadia. we would definitely book here again.

Maine Getaway
Absolutely beautiful waterfront property. Private, peaceful and well-stocked to ensure that guests enjoy themselves. We took a family trip where my parents were able to spend time relaxing on the porches, my children explored the rocky shore and I was able to enjoy a little bit of both. Within an hour of Bar Harbor and Acadia National Park, plus close to a quaint small town with a nice gift shop, cafe and general store.

Gray Cottage
Cottage was rustic and quaint, was in a beautiful location. Only problem was a lack of a heat source….there was a fireplace and a space heater that didn’t put out much heat. We kept a fire going but they didn’t leave us much firewood, we ended up buying over $100 worth to last us the week. We contacted them and asked for more and they did, just not enough. The temperature never got lower than 50 but we’re from the South and that’s chilly for us. Other than staying warm we enjoyed the cottage and the area very much, it would be a great place to stay in warmer weather.
