Our Shannon Home Is Located On A Quiet Street In Bar Harbor.

We stayed for four nights at your home in Bar Harbor. Our friends from overseas joined us. The house had everything that we needed to make our stay enjoyable. There was a well stocked kitchen. The neighborhood was very quiet, we truly enjoyed our stay. When there was an issue that a valuable item was left behind, the owners immediately had the item shipped priority mail and was received it in record time. Thank you so much Valerie.

Owner Val communicates quickly and we had no problems finding the house with her instructions and photos, since we arrived in the dark. The house was clean with all the amenities you need for a family-the washer/dryer were crucial after a whale-watch in the pourng rain and hiking all day in the summer! The house is LESS THAN FIVE MINUTES drive to Acadia National Park and only 15 minutes to Cadillac Summit for the sunrise (key for a 4:30am trip!) We walked to town (7-15 minutes depending on the restaurant) each night as parking in town would have taken just as long, and the stargazing on the way was amazing! The house sleeps six very comfortably, had fans for every room, and WiFi for our Netflix viewing! The single bathroom behind the kitchen was great when two had to go at the same time. The full bath is big enough for a few people to get ready at once. The maps and hiking books proved invaluable, and we paid it forward by leaving a biking book as well. In fact, the waterproof map is the best one, and usable wherever you go on MDI. The house is not modern or fancy, but it is extremely practical and worked wonderfully for our family! All five of us highly recommend it! After having an amazing dinner at Havana (you need to make reservations in advance), walk down to Mt. Desert Ice Cream (best ice cream ANYWHERE), then walk home to walk off all those calories while stargazing!! Also, don't miss the Lobster Omelette at Two Cats! Thank you, Val, for a GREAT stay in Bar Harbor!!
