Beautiful and very accommodating home. Amazing scenery and view from the back porch. Comfortable in all areas. Scenic and very easy 45 minute drive to Acadia and Bar Harbor. I would absolutely stay here again

Wonderful house with lovely view
Close to all the Ellsworth shops and restaurants but far away from the noise and congestion this place was a great home away from home Gas cooktop and grill on the deck make cooking easier and Dorr lobster is 5 minutes away when you want some of Maines finest fish. No complaints here!

Excellent Property
This property is just as beautiful as you see in the actual pictures. Very peaceful and quiet area with a lovely view but also very centrally located. It’s very close to gas stations, mini markets, fast food places and even a Super Walmart! We were 2 couples traveling and our original reservation was horrible upon checking in. It was about 8:30pm when we started looking for another property to try to checkout the same night and thankfully the owner of this property immediate responded to my message and assisted us in reserving this new property. She certainly saved our vacation and was extremely helpful and responsive at any given time. The best part was that there was air conditioning, which is extremely difficult to find in any VRBO property in these surrounding areas. Our stay was wonderful and would highly recommend this property to anyone. You will love it!

Nice Place to Stay near Acadia/Bar Harbor
We were a party of seven - 2 families with 4 adults and 3 kids. This house was perfect for our needs. The kids loved having the whole upstairs to themselves with the bunkbeds and the jacuzzi tub. After a long day in Acadia, we were able to cook up a pasta dinner at home instead of dragging everyone out to a restaurant. We were not there long enough to take advantage of the kayaks, but I'm sure it would have been a lot of fun! The 2 things I would want to call out to potential renters: 1) Ellsworth is deceptively far from Bar Harbor/Acadia, since it's basically a single-lane local road to get there. It took a solid 40 min each way, which can add up when you have tired/cranky kids. 2) The house is air conditioned, but only in the main area of the house and the upstairs bedroom with the bunk beds. (The 2 bedrooms downstairs are NOT air conditioned) We had a very nice stay here and would recommend!

Lovely house in great location
We really enjoyed our stay. The house was very nice and comfortable. The view from the kitchen/living room was beautiful. It was perfectly located for day trips to Mount Desert Island and quick trips to Ellsworth for groceries, supplies and dinner out. The only drawbacks were that there wasn't an easy access into the lake which the house sits on, and it is a duplex (the house has a apartment in the walkout basement). When I booked the house, I did not realize it was a duplex and likely would not have booked it had I realized that. In the end, our neighbor was quiet as a mouse, and didn't complain about the noise my two dogs would constantly make walking around on the wood floors. (Which was my biggest concern.) All that being said, we would definitely book this house again.

the view was beautiful and we enjoyed the deck
There was a few things that were missing - we could have used a broom. a mirror in the smaller bedroom - the gas stove everytime we turned it on - entire kitchen smelled of propane gas - needs to be checked-could be dangerous problem

Thank you for your input on the mirror and broom. There is a full length mirror available in the master bedroom as well as mirrors in both bathrooms. Additionally, we have had the entire propane system professionally inspected including all propane appliances within the last month. Rest assured that they are working correctly and the property is safe.

Nice place to stay in Ellsworth
We enjoyed our time in Ellsworth, ME. A great feature of the property is the access to the lake and the available kayaks which our daughters greatly enjoyed. We spent a lot of time in Bar Harbor and the Acadia National Park and the house was a nice place to come back to in the evening.

Comfort with a View
New, modern space with comfortable seating and beds, great view of the lake. Kitchen had all the basics and a really nice seating area. Kayaks were a welcome addition—this part of the river is just on the edge of a lake and makes for a relaxing little paddle. Perfect for a short stay to visit Acadia if you want to be a bit away from the Bar Harbor scene (about 35-40 minutes with summer traffic).
