Beautiful Secluded Area
The house was situated at the end for a very bumpy dirt road. The outside area is beautiful lots of very large rocks. Hose was very nice lots of unique touches. Beds were comfortable. Internet is very slow, but they have movies to watch.

Lovely cabin in secluded area
There were a few minor cleaning issues (used contact lenses on bedside table and makeup stained washcloth) but rest of cabin very clean. Bathtub on main floor not recommended for anyone with agility issues or unstable on your feet. None of the four in our group felt safe to use it. When Hurricane Lee encouraged us to leave a day early we were disappointed there was not even a partial reduction in amount paid. When we spoke to other travelers down the coast in the following days we learned most who canceled reservations because of hurricane were given either partial or full refund.

Gorgeous house, very secluded
Property is beautiful, extremely quiet and surrounded by trees. When the listing states that the driveway is steep, you’d better believe it—without 4-wheel drive in poor weather conditions, a vehicle would have a tough-to-impossible time traversing it. Interior of home is stunning. Be aware that only one bedroom is totally enclosed. The upstairs bedroom is an open concept so not soundproofed at all from what’s happening on the floor below. Air conditioning was persnickety and didn't seem to be working although the control panel said it was on, but the weather was perfect and stayed in the 70s so we didn’t need it. The place was astonishingly, spotlessly clean, with abundant towels and a well-stocked pantry. Host even included bug spray and sunscreen along with copious maps and brochures. Within 30-to-45 minutes driving time, you can get to Bar Harbor and Acadia National Park, but Ellsworth also has its charms including fun antique shops and a few good restaurants (we highly recommend Union River Lobster Pot). Overall, a gorgeous house in a memorable setting.

Perfect new cabin near Acadia!
This cabin was awesome-so perfectly furnished and charming in every way. We were close enough to go hiking every day in Acadia, but had such an amazing and comfortable (and affordable) place to come back to afterward! Stargazing and fire pit were so great. Pantry was stocked with complimentary snacks, too. All in all a great stay and we’d definitely come back.

Beautiful property in the woods
We had quite an eventful stay at this property. The address provided on booking the listing led us to a completely different house than the one we booked. Both are owned by the same rental management and I guess there was some sort of confusion in giving the address, which are just 10mins apart. But apart from the initial glitches of checkin (we spent the night in the other house and next day morning we moved to the actual house), everything else was perfect. A big shoutout to the rental owners for their prompt responses for all sorts of queries and help we received at 3am during checkin and next morning as well. I’d love to come back and stay here and I’d recommend this property to anyone who is looking for a quiet peaceful stay in the woods.
