Photos and Description of the Bar Harbor vacation cabin rental 2 BR, 1 BA, Sleeps 6.

Conveniently located in the center of Mt. Desert Island on the 'Quiet Side,' you will enjoy easy access to all of the island's activities and scenery. This peaceful camp is nestled in the pines on ledges at the foot of Acadia Mountain, about a mile from the village of Hall Quarry. The camp sleeps four in two bedrooms (one only partially enclosed), and two more on a sleep sofa. Fully equipped kitchen (though no dishwasher) and laundry facilities plus a gas grill off the large front deck. Pets may be a negotiated possibility. Hall Quarry is a quiet residential area, famous in the past for the excellent granite that was shipped by schooner to eastern seaboard cities in the 1800's. Evidence can still be seen of the old quarries in walks around the village.

Again, convenience is one of the main attractions of the camp's location. On a hot day, a ten minute walk will bring you to a swim at Echo Lake's 'The Bluffs' in Acadia National Park. It's the same distance to the trailhead of Acadia Mountain - 45 minutes from your door to the top of the mountain will reveal some of the most spectacular views on the Island (see photos). A more extended hike will take you down the other side of the mountain to the shore of Somes Sound, Man O' War Brook, St. Sauveur Mountain and the equally spectacular cliffs above Valley Cove. For exploring the rest of the Island, a five minute walk will allow you to catch the Island Explorer, a free shuttle bus to many locations around Mount Desert Island. Ike's Point Boat Launch on Echo Lake is a five minute walk.

The good, the bad, and the ugly.

He and She Spencer, OH., Medina county, U.S.A.
Review Submitted: September 3, 2009 Date of Stay: August 2009
The good: This cabin is in a very convenient,and quiet location. It has a washer, and dryer. It has a lovely, large deck with comfy lawn furniture, which we really enjoyed. Kitchen is fully equipped and clean, as is the full bath. The bad: Dirty old shag carpet. One musty smelling bedroom. No central heat, as advertized. No railing to help get up two very high steps, that went down to the bedrooms. I am 65, and 5' tall, I am very agile, and have good knees, but the steps were difficult. I was afraid of falling on them. The ugly: The sagging, low bedroom ceilings, and the mouse droppings on the kitchen counters in the mornings, after we had cold nights. These problems are an easy fix. I did not like this cabin, but we could not afford to leave and rent another place. Acadia, and the ocean were amazingly beautiful. P.S. Cabin owner, Wrote a quote: We were all related to plants and animals ,etc. We dont agree, and dont want these world views shoved down our throats. B & B

A good deal for a family of four. A short drive to several quaint villages, hiking trails, lakes and ocean. Nice star gazing off the deck. It was great having the washer and dryer too.
