Serenity place. Relax in a semi rural setting 18 mile from Acadia National Park

Open floor plan, updated, with new floor and trim, new comfortable furniture, gorgeous view. Accomodates four with two bedrooms (1 Queen, 2 twins). Full deck in front and small deck in back. Everything is new. It is in a wooded private location tucked just off a residential area, just a 1/2 mile from beautiful downtown Ellsworth, and just 18 miles from Acadia National Park. There are many vacation destinations nearby. You will have the run of the house. Come and enjoy. This is double wide trailer, about ten years old, but now completely renovated.

The full-size kitchen is fully stocked with eating and cooking utensils. It does not have specialty items such as a double boiler, but it has plenty of basics. We have a coffee maker for pots of coffee and k-cups. [Bring your own coffee]. We have A/C in the main room and fans in the bedroom. Bring or buy bottled water. The well water is potable, but well water does not agree with water your used to in other regions sometimes. The gas fireplace is non-functional for safety and cost issues. The enclosed deck is bi-level and large with chairs and tables. The abundant wildlife, dear, fox, turkeys, etc. are at no extra charge. Enjoy Maine.

Before departing, please:
1. Wash up dishes
2. Place trash in white bags, and place white bags in the trash receptical on the back deck inside the large black bag.
3. Sweep the floor.
4. Placed used towels and sheets in a pile on the bedroom floor. (The floor is vinyl so damp towels wont hurt the floor)
5. Check to see nothing was left.
6. Let me know of any problems.

Nice and quiet
We stayed here while visiting Acadia for a few days. House was very clean and furnishings were all modern. Complete, clean kitchen. Surroundings were quiet. Located very convenient to the town of Ellsworth; town was just a few minutes away. We were able to go to Acadia all day and this was a nice home base to return to. Internet and TV worked perfectly, ideal for chilling out after a full day of hiking. Would stay here again or recommend to a friend.

Bar Harbor and Acadia Trip
It was a great stay at Steven's property. The twin beds might need a new mattress/topper, but the master bed room was excellent! It was close to Bar Harbor and Acadia and we had the best meal at Helens Restaurant. Would definitely come again!

Quiet hideaway
We very much enjoyed our stay; basic, clean, great host, near to Acadia National Park, the Maine Coast as well as Bangor. Ellsworth is a neat small town with lots of local non- franchise eateries, LL Bean outlet and even a Wally World (Wal Mart). We would stay there again.

Convenient and clean
We enjoyed our stay and found the property very clean and incredibly convenient to downtown Ellsworth. The only drawbacks are the master bedroom's bed was uncomfortable and the shower has a big step down which you need to be very careful of when getting in and out. Otherwise the home was great and we had a nice time for my niece's graduation!

Great location and nice place.
This really is a good “home base” for Acadia National Park. Drive isn’t bad and plenty of places to indulge in lobster. The place had everything we needed, was cozy and well kept. Love the extra touch of leaving the Maine blueberry jam! I’m hooked!

Best value in the Acadia are
We were happy to find a reasonable place to stay near Acadia NP. The drive was about 45 minutes but it was nice to see all the restaurants and places to stop along the way. The house had all the basics. We did wish we had access to a washer/ dryer and a pot to cook fresh lobster in. Otherwise we were happy with our stay.

This property was so comfortable for us 3 woman. We were gone exploring in Acadia and Bar harbor for a long weekend, and it was so comfortable to come back at night and relax, eat snacks and just have access to the right amount of towels, utensils toilet paper, ect. The fact that we had fans to use in the bedrooms were a bonus!Thank you for everything! Not fancy but just nice inside:) All you really need!
