Perfect Fall Vacation!!

My wife, six month old daughter, myself and our pug traveled to Maine for the first time and we had an amazing time! The house was perfect for us. The fireplace made the living room nice and cozy. The hot tub under the stars made the nights sparkle. The kitchen was stocked with utensils, a few things of tupperware to store leftovers and plenty of glasses to fill with your favorite libation. The location was great too! There is a grocery store about a mile away from the house, which made getting supplies a snap. An entrance to Acadia National Park is about a mile in the other direction from the store. I highly recommend hiking the trail right off Fernald Point Road. When you get to the top of Flying Mountain, you are rewarded with spectacular views!
On a personal note, we're from Long Island, NY and just happened to stay here during Hurricane Sandy. We had a tough couple of days trying to reach our families but finally did get through and everyone was okay. Initially we weren't sure if we were going to be able to make it back to our home (as it didn't have power and reports weren't looking too good). When I emailed Jen, the home owner of this house we were renting in Maine, she was very kind and offered to work with us staying longer if needed. It's that kind of consideration and compassion that let's me know the owners of this house are kind and genuinely awesome people.
If you're looking for a house in the Bar Harbor area that offers great amenities, is close to everything, and has owners that make the process thoroughly enjoyable...this is your house!!
