This property was wonderful for a family vacation (5 adults, a 5 year old and a two year old). The neighborhood is quiet yet so close to downtown Bar Harbor and Acadia N.P. Host was quick with communication. Home was clean, with comfy beds and well stocked kitchen. We appreciated how the floors and stairs didn't creak at all, and how the kitchen, dining room, and living room flowed together for family time, and how there was also a separate family room.
