John was an amazing host. The Far Niente has everything you could need and more. The building is very cozy and was great place to stay. John also provided a lot of great recommendations for things to do and checked in several times to make sure everything was going well. Would love to stay here again for future visits.

This was the PERFECT place to stay for our week exploring Mt Desert Island. My wife, dog, and I stayed in the cabin while my in-laws were in the cottage and we had plenty of space to relax while also having a bit of separation. It was convenient to get everywhere we needed via car and the house is stocked with everything you could need. John was an amazing host and I would recommend Far Niente to anyone who wants to have a cozy place to call home while visiting beautiful Maine.

This cottage is truly enchanting. Everything you could possibly need is provided! John, the host, is extraordinarily responsive and helpful! It is a perfect base for exploring the Acadia / Bar Harbor region. We loved every moment we were there!
