Summary: We were so very happy that we chose to stay here! The home is located in a beautiful area directly on the sound. Easy driving to Acadia, Bar Harbor and other surrounding towns. Convenient to grocery store. Our hosts gave us wonderful information that was so helpful. The home is very comfortable and clean. Beds were comfy with great bedding. Bathrooms stocked with very nice towels.The kitchen is well stocked for those who like to cook. Gas grill on the dock and beautiful fire pit for evenings outside. Kayaks and paddle boards including life vests were a big hit! We would definitely stay here again!
