About The Owner
We love 'Ba Haba' - the magical place!
The Owner purchased this cottage in 2008
Why The Owner chose Bar Harbor and Mount Desert Island
We took our family camping in our VW Vanagon in Bar Harbor in 2007. It was our very first visit and it was love at first sight. In 2008, we purchased Blue Rose Cottage because we knew this would be a place we'd want to return to each year. We hope you feel the same way.
Guestbook comments from the owner
I first need to start by thanking you for making the Blue Rose Cottage available as a vacation rental. Unlike a hotel, we had all the comofts of home available to us and we truly enjoyed our time away. Bar Harbor was everything we expected and more. We still can't stop talking about the fun we had while hiking in Acadia Ntl. Park and all of the great food we were able to enjoy.
We spent our first full day exploring the down town area and just loved how easy it was to get around. Everything was so close, so we were able to walk to shops / restaurants and get the know the area. The rest of the week we tried to cram in as many hikes as possible in beautiful Acadia National Park. We couldn't believe all of the trails that were available, with options for every comfort level.
Can you believe we had access to a great kitchen and didn't cook a thing. (Does toasting bagels count?). Seriously, how could you expect us to cook with so many great restaurants available within walking distance? This was probably the first week in our lives that we ate only fish or seafood, every day for lunch and dinner. Loved it!
We truly enjoyed our time at the Blue Rose Cottage. Thank you again for opening up your home to us so we could explore a new area. We will definetly be back for a visit again in the future.

Great location!
Quaint cottage with an amazing location! Leave your car in one of two parking spots and walk into town. Weather was perfect and we took advantage of fire pit and BBQ. Nicely appointed kitchen with a fun card table. Never met Hong or Logan, but only because never were we in need of a thing. Thanks!
Quaint cottage. Walking distance to everything. Great for our family of 5.
A year ago we decided to make Maine our annual family vacation destination. Upon doing research, heard that Bar Harbor was the place to be. We have 3 teenage boys - all Boy Scouts - and we found plenty to please everyone in our family. Sea kayaking, biking and hiking Acadia, and various tours on land and sea. The town was cute and had plenty of shopping and walking and small town vibe to it. Gobs of restaurants to choose from. Didn't find a bad one. They were all good. Found the town to be incredibly friendly and inviting.
The cottage was a good size for us and close enough to town that allowed us to do things whenever we wanted and go back to the house to rest in between. The kitchen and eating area were very nicely sized. we were able to make breakfast every day. Plenty of dishes and cooking items. There were plenty of towels and having a washer / dryer in the house allowed us to do laundry whenever we needed. The couch was not big enough to seat all of us but there was plenty of room on the covered porch or in the kitchen to spread out.
We were sad to leave. The whole town and the cottage / in town experience was new for us. We have never rented a property through VRBO but it worked out perfectly.
The owner also sent us a very comprehensive email explaining all we needed to know to get to the property and suggestions for our stay. Also answered all questions very promptly. Clean property and comfortable beds.
Highly recommend if you are looking to stay in town in Bar Harbor.
Nice place in Bar Harbor
The Blue Rose Cottage is a wonderful home base for a Bar Harbor/Acadia vacation. While being cozy and charming it provides all a family needs for a great vacation experience. Within walking distance to anything in town and a short drive into Acadia rarely did we find ourselves at the cottage long with so much to do and see.
Incredible house!
Excellent location, perfect seyup for three generations staying together, very well-stocked kitchen, and extremely clean. Than you for offering your house.
Excellent location!
My family and I enjoyed our stay at the cozy cottage. Easy walking distance to all Main Street Bar Harbor shops, museum, walking paths, water activities and restaurants! Hong and Logan were very responsive. A real wonderful Maine vacation experience! Regards, Mireya and family
Comfy little cottage
The location was perfect with everything within walking distance. Cottage is small and cosy but is well equipped and provided everything we needed. Very good value and would recommend.
