Acadia Escape remodeled in 2008 : We have done lots of updates to our recently purchased home this year. All windows and doors have been replaced with energy efficient low e glass. An energy efficient furnace was also installed this year to help with green house gases and for your comfort. The electrical system has also been completely updated to all safety codes including smoke detectors in every room for your safety. In the bathroom the tub/shower enclosure has been newly tiled. The hardwood floors in the living area and the California pine floors on the entire second floor have all been sanded and refinished. As have all the original wood doors. To complete our renovations we have also purchased all new bedding and towels.

Great Stay

Review Submitted: February 4, 2010 Date of Stay: August 2009
We had a great time staying here. We walked to the Island Explorer bus and rode around the Island. We visited Jordan Pond House and had popovers and blueberry crisp yum. We cooked lobsters and ate in the backyard. Thanks for a great house and so many conveniences.

September is perfect

Review Submitted: February 4, 2010 Date of Stay: September 2008
Bar Harbor in September is perfect, not too crowded and the hint of fall. We really enjoyed the central location of the house.It was nice to be able to walk to all the shops,restaurants and the Acadia shuttle.We also liked the short shore path in town. Augie and Maryellen thanks for the great house-we felt very comfortable here.
