About this property

'Acadia Haven' - The peaceful side of Bar Harbor, by lovely Acadia.

A wonderful spot for a restful, quiet getaway. Expansive windows in this clean, recently-built 2-bedroom home offer near and distant views peeping through the lovely mixed pine, fir and maple woods that offer peace and privacy. Relax into the comfy furniture on the lawn - choose sun or shade. Pick handfuls of native wild blueberries from your own blueberry field!

There are 2 cheery bedrooms, one with queen bed, one with double bed. 1 full bathroom and 1 half-bath will comfortably meet all your needs. The Living room is sunny and cheerful with lovely views into the woodland. The kitchen is fully-equipped with cookware and tableware for your own Down-East lobster bake! 8' tall terrace doors bring in lots of light, and just outside is a Weber gas barbecue grill, outdoor table, chairs and umbrella. Appliances include range top, countertop convection oven, refrigerator, microwave, toaster, coffeemaker, washer/dryer, TV with DVD player.

All bedroom and bath linens are provided. Feel free to roast marshmallows over a campfire in the nearby firepit.

Review

Steve was great to deal with. The property was clean, bright, and quiet. It's a 12-minute, easy drive to Bar Harbor, that allows you to avoid the in-season crowds, while providing access to restaurants and shopping.

Quiet, comfortable, and relaxing

We spent much of our time in the cottage, since the weather was dreary and we were not feeling well. The place is very relaxing and has many amenities that added to the experience - organ, books, and games, sunroom, etc. We were initially perplexed by the mini counter-top oven, but were able to make nice meals and now want one of our own. The downstairs bed was very comfy, and the shower was hot and powerful. We can imagine how beautiful the gardens will be in the summer. We traveled with our 18 month old. After a bit of babyproofing, the upstairs bedroom was perfect for his play and naptimes. We look forward to coming back again.

About the host

Hosted by Steve & Rose Demers

Rose and Steve Demers have lived in Bar Harbor for over 30 years, and there's nowhere we'd rather be! We'll be staying at another home on the 4 acre property, so if you have any questions or concerns while here, we are available to help in any way we can.

Why they chose this property

This property has been treated with much love over the years. It is bright and cheery, with lots of sunlight and close and distant woodland views coming through expansive windows. After busy days in downtown Bar Harbor, exploring Acadia National Park, relaxing at the beach, or world-class sailing or whale-watching, you'll love returning to this peaceful, private retreat with your family.

What makes this property unique

This home is a tranquil sanctuary to relax and enjoy filtered woodland views, and quiet evenings.. With large windows and hilltop breezes, you'll stay cool at night.
