6 Bedroom House in Bar Harbor

Rising Sun Cottage is located right in Bar Harbor and features six beautiful bedrooms and spectacular ocean views, making it the perfect choice for large families up to 12 people. Our guests are often enjoying a multi-generational vacation together, and the spacious living room with its two decks allows everyone to gather around to talk, enjoy their meals, and share stories and pictures, all while soaking in the breathtaking sight of the open ocean.
Nestled at the end of a quiet private road, Rising Sun offers truly exceptional tranquility and convenience, creating a private retreat for everyone while being just minutes away from the entrance to Acadia National Park. Families can also easily enjoy all of the dining and shopping experiences for which the Village of Bar Harbor is famous, because it's just a five-minute drive to the center of town from the house!
With its perfect blend of comfort and stunning scenery, Rising Sun Cottage is designed to create unforgettable family moments. Whether you're enjoying a sunset from one of the decks or gathered together in the living room, Rising Sun promises an extraordinary stay for all generations.
Before we built Rising Sun Cottage in 2014, we stayed in many other parts of Mount Desert Island. When we stayed in Southwest Harbor or other areas on the western side of the island, we found the drive back and forth to Bar Harbor to be tiresome. Round trip, it’s over an hour, and at night the drive wasn’t relaxing.
When we stayed in Bar Harbor itself, we were often surprised by the lack of privacy and peacefulness. This is why we built Rising Sun where we did.
Located at the end of a beautiful private road right off of Main Street, Rising Sun finally gave us the incredible combination of great privacy and very close proximity to the Village of Bar Harbor that we'd been looking for during all of our other vacations.
If you or your family loves to cook, you'll love our kitchen and pantry. We provide a complete array of herbs, spices, sugars, salts, peppers, and flour for your family to enjoy, as well as a wide selection of sharp knives, pots, pans, and cooking and baking equipment. There’s an incredible amount of stainless-steel prep space, two large sinks, a powerful exhaust hood over the stove, and stunning ocean views to take in while you cook!
At night, under the star-filled skies, a short walk along our quiet and private road is relaxing and delightful. Trees line the road on both sides, except for an occasional driveway. It's as beautiful as any carriage road in Acadia, but it's just you on an evening stroll. The night sky is largely free of light pollution, so you'll find the stars exceptionally bright and truly amazing. And the peaceful solitude on the road is equally so.
If you're an early riser, the morning dew, the cool ocean air, and possibly one of the fox family who lives in the woods nearby will share your walk. We often continue our walk to include the National Park Trail that's just a mile from the house -- all on the private road -- which leads to Compass Harbor and its spectacular views of the Porcupine Islands.
If there's a storm during your family's stay, our whole house emergency generator offers great peace of mind. The power supply in Bar Harbor and on Mount Desert Island isn't always the most dependable, and even if the electricity is off for just a few hours during your family’s vacation, losing the lights, showers, water, toilets, refrigeration, and air conditioning isn’t fun. If the outage lasts a day or more, it will really put a damper on your vacation. But not at Rising Sun! We made sure our generator is the largest residential generator on the market, so it will easily power the whole house, including our central air conditioning.
One of the goals in building Rising Sun was that our guests could enjoy the most relaxing, peaceful, and nature-appreciating vacation ever, even if they were to never leave the property. And if you were to explore Acadia National Park to the fullest every day, coming back to Rising Sun in the evening to cocktails, dinner, and the hot tub, you would have your most invigorating, exciting, and nature-appreciating vacation ever.
We hope that you and your family will come and enjoy a week or two of Bar Harbor paradise at Rising Sun Cottage. If you have dogs, please bring them. They'll love Rising Sun, Bar Harbor, and Acadia National Park!

Summary: Rising Sun is very private and quiet with beautiful views of the ocean from the house. The location allows you to walk from the house and go directly onto trails that lead you into the park. Kitchen was well stocked, owners were super responsive.Those with mobility issues should be very careful renting this home as there are many stairs and some with no handrails. House was very clean, but knocked off points for no shampoo, conditioner (did find hotel size shampoos in kitchen pantry) etc. in any of the bathrooms, few bedside lamps (bring a Kindle if you want to read at night).
