Very relaxing stay in Winter Harbor, Maine. House was clean, neat and had every possible item we would need or want.....incredibly well stocked, both inside and outside (e.g. bicycles, games, lawn chairs)! Host was very responsive and helpful when we had questions. I would highly recommend this house and these hosts if planning a vacation in this area.

Great house and location
My husband and I enjoyed the away-from-the-crowds location and house. The house was clean, very well supplied, had nice bedrooms/bathrooms and was close enough to Acadia Nat'l. Park sites, particularly Schoodic Point, and some decent restaurants. Although we didn't get around to riding bikes, we were impressed that bike helmets were supplied along with bikes. We enjoyed breakfast every morning at the J.M. Gerrish restaurant around the corner. Overall we had a very positive experience!

This was our second stay at this lovely home and it did not disappoint! We love the quiet side of Acadia and Sharon’s home is perfect for our family of 3! Clean and well appointed, walking distance to the cove, restaurants, grocery & the beloved five and dime! Owner provided lots of info about the area and was quick to respond to questions. Laundry onsite was great and kitchen had all we needed. We hope to stay again soon!

Wonderful Experience
We had the best trip. The house was perfect for our family of 5. It was very clean, well stocked with kitchen supplies, and anything else you could need. The location was Great! We loved being able to see the water from the house and beingso close to Scoodic. We had dinner at the Treehouse on the corner, it was Fantastic! Breakfast at JMGerrish was delicious and if you are Starbucks snob like me the espresso at Downeaster is on point! Thank You for a wonderful experience!

Property was spotless and well appointed. The only thing I would suggest is a sign at the bottom of the stairwell warning that the ceiling at the top of the stairs is extremely low! To prevent any head injuries, that should be mandatory.

Bucket list vacation
Great place to stay. House was centrally located and easy in and out. Clean and neat. A/C was super quiet, bathrooms were clean and modern. Built in 1860 so stairs were a little steep for 60’s couples. Quiet neighborhood. Overall good experience.

Loved the location of the house. Was on the quiet side of Acadia but we love to hike and sit and watch the waves at Schoodic Point. We took the ferry to Bar Harbor and had a great time. Took our morning walks around town. The house was comfortable and new bathrooms nice. Would rent here again.
