About this house rental
A recent guest review~
"On a mountainside with sweeping views of Somes Sound, this home’s location is exquisite. Beautiful sailboats, a family of bald eagles a few trees down the shore. Bird song in the morning. Serene quiet at dusk.
The house is warm and very comfortable and beautifully furnished. Beds are so comfortable. Everything works beautifully. Wonderful porch, one could just live on. Hosts are always available and easy to reach. The property caretaker is completely reliable and a great guy. Acadia Lodge is
heavenly." ~G.S.
This extraordinary, shorefront, custom-designed home in the historic Hall Quarry area of Mount Desert Island, made with indigenous materials fits gracefully into the shoreline of Acadia National Park against which it abuts and Acadia Mountain on which it is perched below. With stunning views of Somes Sound from nearly every room, take in the parade of handsome cruising yachts and racing sailboats while relaxing by the fire or sitting on the expansive deck. This well-designed and light-filled home features open beams supported by mountain cedars and an open layout with a gourmet kitchen. With three floors of living space, this special home offers the utmost privacy without compromising space in which to gather and entertain. Guests to Acadia Lodge will surely enjoy the views from any one of many spots - the sunny deck facing the Sound, the north or south side porch, or the outdoor patio with a fire pit sheltered under a cliff. And when it's time to venture away from the house, follow the granite steps to a private dock with two moorings. National Park hiking trails can also be reached directly from this property and swimming from Echo Lake's beach, ledges or Ike's Point is just a few minutes away by car. All in all, with so much of the national park nearby and is within 10 to 20 minutes from the villages of Southwest Harbor and Bar Harbor, Acadia Lodge offers the peaceful benefits of the "quiet side" without giving up convenience to the Park or to the shopping and dining each village offers.
Rents Saturday to Saturday during peak summer season, with a 4-night minimum during spring and fall.

The Property:
MAIN FLOOR: Enter at ground level to the main living space with views of Somes Sound from nearly every vantage point. The high-end Kitchen with stainless steel appliances and island seating opens to the Living and Dining Area with a dining table for 8, access to the covered deck with furnishings on the north side, and access to the open deck on the south side. Adding to the charm and comfort of this space are comfortable sofas, a desk area if needed, a gas-fired stove, and a baby grand piano overlooking the Sound! A half bathroom completes the first floor.
UPPER LEVEL: A fabulous and spacious Master Suite featuring a King bed, a sitting area with a flat-screen TV, a queen sleeper sofa, and a large private Bathroom with a claw-foot tub and separate shower. And of course, this upper level enjoys the same wonderful views of Somes Sound. Please note: the upstairs bedroom is not a loft, it is private in location, but there is no door to this room.

What a wonderful and peaceful location on the sound! We especially enjoyed the deck and watching the boats go by. The close proximity to downtown Bar Harbor and Acadia was excellent. We look forward to returning!
8 / 10Excellent·Jul 2025
Overall, we enjoyed our stay. The place was in a perfect area away from the excitement of the Bar Harbor July 4th mayhem. We absolutely loved the location and got to explore parts of the island not often visited. That said, the house layout was a bit unique, and with our kids being five and under, we wouldn't have minded a "heads up." There was pleasant yet fragile decor everywhere, including the baby grand piano. After the initial excitement wore off, we were able to manage well.The third floor is a full bedroom without a door and this is where the only TV lives. Not a huge deal but good to know. Temperature was well-maintained, and we were very appreciative of the black-out shades. The other bedrooms are "normal size" and below the main living space.The private dock was a 3-5 minute walk away. Not sure if we were "allowed" to jump into the sound, but we couldn't find out because without a ladder, I wasn't sure how to get back out of the water (the bank is rock too).Overall, beautiful home and fantastic location, but I'd just advise it's not for a typical family with wee ones.

Reviewer Comments:
The entrance code did not work, I called the Turnkey people, I was told someone would be out within 1/2 hour. I received a phone call from one of the Turnkey people after about 1/2 hour. They gave me a new code which worked. Presumably, they could have checked this system before we arrived so we would not have to wonder how this would be resolved after having driven for 5 hours. There were a number of interactions regarding where our trash should go, some from a central office and some from a local office, I guess. There was Zero coordination between the TurnKey people and what I was told was repeatedly confusing or inaccurate. The prior tenant had left smelly garbage in a closet in the garage - this house had not been adequately cleaned after the last tenant. The dishwasher is in poor condition with the bottom rack repeatedly coming off the railing and tipping over when filled.
