About this house rental
Located in downtown Bar Harbor, this magical retreat is the site of one of the first mansions built on the Shore Path in the 1800s! Tucked within 1.78 acres of immaculate gardens and lush foliage, you will feel as if you have your own private mansion to call home while being steps from all of the best attractions in town. The 100 feet of oceanfront property will be your piece of paradise.
Inside, you will be greeted by elegant decor and furnishings to welcome you. The fully equipped kitchen with all of the major appliances, cookware, and utensils needed for your favorite recipes will make feeding the family a breeze. Reminiscing about the adventures of the day in the living room will be a blast as well, as the multiple sofas, and large flatscreen smart TV have you covered. Each of the six bedrooms are fully furnished with comfort in mind.
Take advantage of the wraparound deck on the ground and second floor for a bit of fresh air and sip a favorite cocktail as you look out to Frenchman Bay. Stargazing from here doesn't get much better than this!
The ground floor has the livingroom, kitchen and dining room, bar area, service kitchen with coffee bar, and a bedroom with private access to the bathroom. The second floor has 4 bedrooms and three bathrooms.
* New for 2025, a new bedroom with a king bed and en suite bathroom is available for an additional fee. Located in the newly rennovated third floor attic, this bedroom features hardwood floors, a private balcony, and spectacular views of Frenchman Bay and the Atlantic Ocean.

The house is in a great location for walking main street or the walkway along the water.Arcadia national park is super close. We loved sitting in the chairs down by the water watching dolphins, seals, boats and people. The grounds are beautiful and well kept. If going to Bar Harbor with a large family this house is worth checking out. It hit all the marks.

This is a charming house with beautiful surroundings. The view on the coast is fabulous. It is such a nice gathering place for a big group. We loved sitting outside in the well manicured lawn, looking out into the ocean. And it is so close to downtown Bar Harbor. It was fun to walk into town and just be able to walk back to the house.We had a little miscommunication but was easily cleared up. We would absolutely return for another stay!

This is a lovely historic home that is also warm and homey. The location is the best part as our teens could walk to the village and be independent and the rest of us could relax knowing they were safe. We all enjoyed walking the shore path to get to various restaurants, etc. The living room TV allowed us to watch the World Cup and Wimbledon as a group. Two refrigerators really helped. It is important to realize that at best this is a 4.5 bedroom home unless you have paid extra to get the upstairs bedroom. One of our party had the downstairs sleeping nook which was created by putting french doors on an office area with no real privacy, no windows and no air conditioning...we were there during a heat wave..and was pretty uncomfortable. The bottom floor is not air conditioned but stayed somewhat cool. The second floor bedrooms were fine, one being a kids room with bunk beds.The outdoors area was lovely with a fire pit and the chairs overlooking the shore walk and the bay. The children liked being able to get down to the water to skip rocks, look at sea life, etc. The adults liked the bay breeze at twilight. We hired a local chef named Darin to feed us one night and had a great meal at the long table. Overall, we had good family vacation but I feel that for the high price we paid, the upstairs bedroom should have been included.
