Beautiful views and great location

The house was exactly as pictured! It was quiet, quaint and a lot of attention to detail went into the entire house. We loved the view from the front as well as the firepit and space for fun and games in the back. The garage/gameroom was where a lot of time was spend playing ping pong. We loved the snacks that were left for us upon arrival as well as the goodies to make 'smores. We appreciated all of the suggestions on what to do in Bar Harbor. We loved every minute of exploring Bar Harbor and Acadia National Park. The hosts were always prompt to respond and such a big help! We would highly recommend staying here.

Incredible Property

This was our second annual girls trip, and this property was perfect for it! The amenities were the best of any rental we’ve ever had. We enjoyed the large backyard and yurt and loved sitting out front in the morning. We will be back!

Don't wait to book!

Desiree's property was everything we were looking for and more. Not a detail was missed - from the extra toiletries (just in case!) to the lovely welcome kit when we arrived. The location was a perfect walking distance to get to town, while just enough outside of town that it felt secluded. We could not recommend this property enough!

Fabulous property with many "extras"

From the moment we walked into the property and started looking around, we raved about how much we liked it. It was comfortable, well-appointed beyond expectation, and big enough for our group of 6 friends. I think it says a lot that when we left our week exploring Bar Harbor and Acadia, our one regret was not getting to spend more time taking advantage of all this VRBO had to offer. We recommend it wholeheartedly.

Great house for visiting Bar Harbor & Acadia

We really enjoyed our stay here! Very clean house with lots of details that make it very comfortable ie. extra blankets & pillows. Plus so many extras like coffee bar, local snacks & souvenirs, and tons of toiletries you might have forgotten. The house is located just outside of the main downtown area, about a 10 minute walk or 5 minute bike ride to the harbor, stores and restaurants. 5 minute drive to one of the main entrances to Acadia for Cadillac mountain. Really great place we would return to and recommend to others.

About the host

Hosted by Desiree Sirois

We are a local year round family who loves our island and community, and is so excited to share it with you.

When we are not rental hosts, you will find us teaching outdoor recreation, education, health, and coaching cross country at the local high school, and operating a local small business in Ellsworth, called Restaurant Barn. (Come check us out, we are across from Pat’s Pizza and have lots of fun cooking and eating equipment!)

We use the park everyday, for outdoor adventures big and small. Whether it is a hike up Dorr Mountain, a bike ride around Eagle Lake, or a kayak paddle on Long Pond.

We hope you enjoy the town and area as much as we do. There is so much to offer, hiking, biking, kayaking, nature tours, dining, shopping, entertainment, and so much more!

Cheers!
Desiree and Jeremiah

Why they chose this property

This property has it all. We purchased the property because it is what we would want in a vacation rental.

On the edge of town. It is quiet, yet walkable to everything. The edge of the park, you don't have to get into your car to go hiking biking, and exploring.

The large lawn for lounging, running and playing. The Yurt which we saw as a great bunkhouse for our kids! The garage flex space. We love the idea of sitting at the table enjoying meals and games on a summer evening, or playing ping pong after dinner.

It evokes so many great memories and happy feelings.

What makes this property unique

The 16 foot yurt that sleeps 6.
The large 2 car garage that serves as a flex space, outdoor dining, and game area.
Walk to both town and the National Park.
