Perfect Family Vacation

5 of 5
Submitted: April 7, 2013 Stayed: December 2012
Last Christmas, my husband and I were looking to take our first family vacation with our 8 month old son. We really liked the idea of Maine, and started looking around. We found this house and signed up to stay. What a good decision! This home was beautiful! It is settled in an area that is quiet enough to give you peace and family time, but close to many fun things, like Acadia! We had so much fun cooking in the updated kitchen, sitting by the warm gas fireplace talking and doing puzzles, and enjoying being away as a family. Maria and Ryan were fantastic hosts! They were accommodating, helpful, and a delight to work with; we would certainly rent from them again! All in all, we had a wonderful trip and a perfect family vacation!

Amazing Setting

5 of 5
Submitted: October 30, 2012 Stayed: October 2012
Maria and Ryan are wonderful hosts and are very helpful with recommendations (restaurants, shops and places to see) and answering all your questions. I would recommend this wonderful home to anyone looking for a very clean, spacious and comfortable place to stay. The surroundings are beautiful.

We enjoyed visiting Acadia National Park, Seal Cove Auto Museum, Bar Harbor (including a lighthouse boat tour), Fort Knox Observatory in Bucksport (amazing) and visiting the other quaint places in the area. We did not meet an unfriendly person. The food was superb everywhere we ate. Had our first lobster dinner, which was delicious, and enjoyed our first popovers at Jordan Pond House in Acadia. Even the pizza from McKinley Market, within a mile from the cottage, was delicious!

Simply put--AMAZING PLACE!

Warm and Inviting

Submitted: October 17, 2012 Stayed: September 2012
We want to sincerely thank you for making this rental available to us. There were so many to choose from, but we certainly believe we made the best choice. The home is spacious, has what we need, and is warm and inviting. We had a great time spending our days hiking and sight-seeing. Bar Harbor and Acadia National Park are awesome places, and Bass Harbor is very quaint. The area is very quiet, which is so very different from Orlando, FL. Thanks for everything, and when we come back we will be calling to see if this place is available. Good luck this winter.

Fell in LOVE!

Submitted: October 16, 2012 Stayed: October 2012
Fell in LOVE with Mount Desert Island and this HOME!

I stayed in this house for three nights with my four children and my friend and her four children. Drove into this home and we all went crazy with excitement!

The house is even better than it looks in the pictures! The bedrooms were good sized and the bedding was super clean and comfortable, as were the beds! The bathrooms were spotlessly clean, well appointed with towels and paper goods and beautiful! The kitchen was great! We had everything we needed to feed the masses and again, everything was so clean!!!!! (Do you get the feeling that clean is important to me?) There was plenty of room for the kids to spread out and get their schoolwork done, to play outside - football and tag of course! The laundry was easy to get to and worked efficiently.

The best part of the house though, is the owners. Maria was wonderful to work with . She made us feel welcomed and was available for all of our questions - both before we arrived and while we were there. I feel like I know her now! We appreciated that!

We loved staying in this great home, and hope that in the future, we can visit MDI again. When we do, we will want to stay here! Thank you Maria!

Lovely House

5 of 5
Submitted: October 16, 2012 Stayed: October 2012
I rented this house for vacation in October. While the pictures of the house were very good, they could not do this house justice. This house was more lovely and charming than I expected. The kitchen is large and well organized. There are plenty of utensil, plates, bowl, pots, etc. Even though I was on vacation, I cooked almost every night. This house is very well cared for and all appliances were in working order. I would love to stay here again.

This house is located on the quiet side of MDI. I felt like I was really away from all of the hustle of daily life. It is a short drive to Acadia through charming harbor towns.

Omg - One of the nicest rentals!

Submitted: September 15, 2012 Stayed: September 2012
OMG! was our first reaction on entering the house. This is one of the nicest rentals we have ever been in! We had a great stay and the weather was wonderful. We spent our days hiking and bike riding. Got lobsters from a guy down near SW Harbor that sells from his garage. They were great. Celebrated our 25th wedding anniversary and made lots of memories (and took tons of pictures...so beautiful!). Maria and Ryan - best of luck on renting your beautiful home and thank you so much for making our trip great.

The Perfect MDI Vacation Home

Submitted: September 15, 2012 Stayed: September 2012
Thank you for sharing the perfect MDI vacation home with us. We loved the light and open feel of your home and appreciated the care with which you have furnished it. Everything was so clean and well-organized, making for an exceptionally relaxing stay. And we loved the way you have decorated it.

The location at Bass Harbor is great - quiet, in the woods, but very close to Southwest Harbor. We look forward to returning in 2013 and will certainly recommend your home to our friends.

Wonderful Home

Submitted: August 12, 2012 Stayed: July 2012
Thank you for sharing your wonderful home with us. We have truly had a great experience here. We enjoyed several nights of game night, and we even enjoyed a morning of Star Wars after a few thunderstorms. This has been a memorable vacation for us, and we are very thankful for providing us with such a cozy home.
