Great place for families

We had a wonderful week at the Acadia Retreat. The home was clean and comfortable, and we especially appreciated how Lorie went out of her way to make sure to have toys, games, and movies on hand for our 3-year old.
When we initially saw the Acadia Retreat online and made inquiries about the property, we were impressed with how timely and responsive Lorie was. She was great to deal with and accommodating of our needs.
The home was perfect for our vacation. All that’s been said in the reviews about it being spotless is true. The sun room was a terrific place to relax, and the kitchen had all the equipment we needed to enjoy meals together. The kids’ bedroom was great for our daughter, who also loved to play in the yard and swing in the hammock.
The location was ideal for us. We are national park enthusiasts, and it was great to have an easy drive into the main portion of Acadia and also be so close to the less-frequented areas of the park.
We highly recommend this property and hope to return soon.

We spent last week in the property. It's located in a quiet and woody area, and it's close enough to the places we wanted to go. Everything is working well, and the kids enjoyed the hammock on the backyard.
We saw deer wandering around a couple of times.

Owner's Response: Yes, it is great for a family retreat!!
And we plan to offer an expanded opportunity for families next season as another home on our property will be added to our inventory. We will then be able to have 10 family members all on the same site enjoying two adorable places side by side!
Stay tuned...it's going to be wonderful for larger families who want lots of space as there will be almost 7 acres to discover! You will soon be able to see pictures on the Homeaway website.
Thank you for your continued interest in Acadia Retreat!
Please call if you have any questions or comments!

We have been spoiled by our vacation in Maine! Relaxing in the beauty and comfort of this home beats any hotel or cottage in the area. It was so quiet that my family could not remember getting a better night's sleep! The home has a beautiful sun-room where we spent most of our time when we were not sightseeing. We had lobster nearly every night (in the sun-room) because buying them yourselves at one of many nearby merchants was so affordable! The owner provides a large lobster pot that makes cooking these "bugs" quick and easy. There are all the little extras in the kitchen including the little butter dishes and platters for the LARGE lobsters you can buy. The house is situated on a very large pretty lot and is secluded from neighbors. It is close to Acadia National Park which is a "must see" as well as Bar Harbor and all of the fun things to do there. Long Pond is a gorgeous lake nearby and canoe or kayak rentals are very affordable right there at the lake. A picture-perfect lighthouse is just down the road past a quaint little Maine village on the water. This home is so easy to get comfortable in that you will not want to leave! It was extremely clean and organized and I will definitely recommend it to everyone I know! And we will go back!

In regards to the house and it's location, we agree with the review written by KSheree in August. We would not hesitate to rent the house again in the future. Carl & Lori have provided everything you need during your stay. We also found the sun porch to be our favorite room.
We enjoyed doing day rides returning to the house each evening. Its location worked well for this. We took the whale watching boat out of Bar Harbor, the harbor boat ride out of Northwest Harbor, explored the roads in Arcadis Park and enjoyed several scenic rides along the Maine coastline on highway 1.

Owner's Response: I just love hearing about the activities that our Guests enjoyed as well as how happy they were when they got back to "base camp!" I believe that the new Sunroom has been a favorite for everyone-even on a rainy day you can feel close to nature as you look out the wraparound windows. It makes the whole house feel bright and cheerful and my family "lives" out there every time we get a chance to stay. One Guest said that it took their group a few days to realize that there was actually a living room! Please call me so I can help you make plans to visit "Acadia Retreat!" Thank you! Lorie

Acadia Retreat was the perfect "home away from home" for our first Maine vacation! Most important to me was the cleanliness; because the house is so well-maintained, we were able to truly relax and enjoy our time there. It's very obvious the owners take pride in their vacation home, and they have filled the house with every imaginable necessity as well as nice, personal touches in every room. We spent much of our time in the new sun room because it was filled with light and very comfortable. The home sits on a very large and private lot about a 15-minute drive to downtown Bar Harbor. Though it might have been nice to sit and look out over the water at a different property, we found the peacefulness of Acadia Retreat a pleasant change after the crowds in the harbors. And, it's a great place to stargaze using a telescope!
We truly had a remarkable time on Mt. Desert Island. Biking on the carriage roads in Acadia National Park was great fun and great exercise. We went sea kayaking with National Park Kayaks, and saw harbor porpoise and seals, as well as ospreys and eagles. For a true lobster dinner away from the crowds of Bar Harbor, visit Thurston's in Bass Harbor. Our favorite restaurant, Rupununi, was in downtown Bar Harbor. The prices were very reasonable, the outdoor dining was pleasant and the dishes were flavorful and interesting.
Definitely take advantage of the free Acadia Shuttle that makes 5 different loops around the island. The campground/downtown shuttle can be flagged down just at the end of the road that Acadia Retreat is on. This was most convenient returning from our fun, but wet, kayaking experience at about 9:00 pm!
A hearfelt thank you to Lorie and Carl for sharing their home with us! We were sad when our week came to an end. We are definitely planning on returning in the future, and most highly recommend Acadia Retreat!

Owner's Response: Incredible! This review could be used for professional promotional materials advertising the Island and Acadia Retreat! I thank everyone for taking the time to share their experiences as it "paints a beautiful picture" for someone who has yet to be smitten by Maine! We strive to have all our Guests have the same wonderful experience and it makes my day to hear that we accomplished that and then it makes me want to do even more to make your vacation satisfying and memorable. It is a win/win for all.
Please call so I can help you make your Maine vacation plans! We have a new property coming available for the 2010 season so at least one of our 3 rentals has to be just right for you and your family! Enjoy! Lorie
