About this house rental
This gorgeous, spacious, and comfortable family-owned home is just a 4 minute drive from Acadia National Park, and just a 5-10 minute walk to the town of Southwest Harbor. Enjoy magnificent harbor and mountain views, and stargaze from the upper deck while warming up by the gas fire pit.

There is also a TV room on the main floor with a sofa bed that may be used to extend occupancy from 10 to 12, but no more than 12 people strict max! YES, THIS GUEST LIMIT INCLUDES INFANTS!

There are four full bathrooms and one half bath. The house has three levels. There are both indoor and outdoor dining areas, as well as some counter seating. In addition to a double height space living room, the upper level also features a lounge area with stunning views. There are also three different decks from which to enjoy the view of the water and mountains, maybe best of all, stargazing from the upper deck with sofa and gas fire pit. The house features game tables and a workout room.
The house does NOT have air conditioning. 5 ceiling fans in the main areas, 1 in upper level master bedroom, 1 in main level master, and the other bedrooms have Vornado room fans. It can sometimes feel hot in the summer afternoons - generally this will happen a few spells each year. It is almost always quite cool at night.
Entry to the house in on the main level. There is a queen bedroom and a twin room (two singles) on the main level. On the upper level there is a queen room. On the lower level, there is a king room and another twin room.
There is a security camera at the driveway, pointing toward the road. There are no pets allowed.

Amazing sunrise views and perfect location. After traveling and hiking all over the past five days, this is absolutely the best location with unbeatable surroundings. Highly recommend.

One of the best vacation homes I’ve ever stayed in. I visited with a few other young families (3 babies around 1), and we had an amazing experience! The fall colors were near peak, and the views of the trees were exactly how I pictured they would be from the photos—both from the numerous balconies or the expansive great room with huge mid century windows. (I cannot put into words how beautiful the sunrises were.) Multiple people from our party lucked out and got to see shooting stars at night! The location (a short walk) near Southwest Harbor was great if you’re looking for a more quiet area than Bar Harbor, and it was a quick 30 min drive to the more common Acadia NP spots. Highly, highly recommend.

I really cannot speak highly enough about our stay at Rachel and Jonathan’s place. It is an absolutely gorgeous home, in a fantastic location, and as hosts, Rachel and Jonathan are incredibly communicative, friendly, and understanding. Their place hosted our family of 10 very comfortably, for a weekend of wedding celebrations! We are so happy to have chosen such a wonderful place to make some pretty special memories. Thanks, Rachel and Jonathan!
