Acadia Getaway
This home had it all! We loved the big picture windows looking out to the water! Our girls are 10 and loved going down to the water and skipping rocks or looking for sea glass during low tide. The home had everything we needed to cook some meals and sleep comfortably. The location was great also! 40-45 minutes to Acadia and Bar Harbor and gorgeous views along the way! We would definitely stay here again!

Wonderful View, Short Drive to Acadia, nice house
We got delayed a day, so we had to call the manager to let her know, and figure out the door code. She immediately answered and got it sorted out! The kitchen had everything we needed to cook our own meals and enjoy the views instead of paying a restaurant for them. The bathrooms were clean, had all the towels we needed and the bed was cozy. We went searching for sea glass every night and never went away empty handed. We saw harbor seals, porpoises, and what we believed to be a whale all from our back deck. The neighborhood is quiet and calm and we enjoyed taking walks. YU takeout has the best deals for lobster rolls and Sailor and Hook had great souvenirs from Bar Harbor. We definitely recommend Sail Acadia for a fun adventure on a historic sailboat, and Country Store Antiques, Books and Wine was a fun to look for local treasures. 10/10 would recommend staying at this amazing waterfront house for a getaway!
