Bar Harbor Vacation Rental house

We spent the second week of September 2008 at the Crow's Nest with our children and grandchildren. We could not have chosen a better house for our vacation. The Crow's Nest was wonderfully clean and neat, as well as homey and inviting. It was our first trip to Bar Harbor and the Crow's Nest was the perfect location for walking in town, or walking to the ocean. We were just minutes away from Acadia National Park. Our grandchildren had a great time running around the yard and riding their bikes around the neighborhood. Although there was intermittent construction next door, we were out having fun all day and it was quiet by the time we got back each afternoon. We love the Crow's Nest and are already planning a return trip next year!

I have never written any reviews or written to any internet forums before but after reading the reviews of J&R, I felt obligated to set the record straight. We rented the Crow's Nest on the week of July 4th. We originally booked the home nearly a year in advance. At that time, the owner told us about the impending construction. On our arrival, the owner was apologetic and compasionate. The construction was never interfering. In fact, living in an extremely quiet neighborhood in CT, we never knew they were there.

Dear J& R it unfair and borderline malicious to lay blame on a situation the owner has no control of. In fact, her advertisement is not at all misleading. The neighborhood is extremely quiet and close to all the ammenities of Bar Harbor, as advertised.

Furthermore, when the next door construction is completed, I believe this home will have the added value of unparalled tranquility in the downtown area, blocking all the sounds of Main St.

I look forward to staying at the Crow's Nest next year and take advantage of a beautifully maintained home just off Main St and enjoy the owners knowledge of all that Bar Harbor has to offer, including those lesser known and more local establishments.

Thank you
