About this house rental
Imagine starting your day hearing the bell buoy near the famed Ocean Path of Acadia National Park. You decide to walk or bike from your house to watch the sunrise light up Otter Cliffs and Monument Cove. You have the place mainly to yourself, and the seagulls. You walk a little further to see what action might be happening at Thunderhole. From there you see that Sand Beach isn't much further, and you realize that you chose a home base as close to the Park as it gets. A rare location, indeed.
While one of the best aspects of this property is it's location to the treasures of Acadia, the property itself hosts a maze of stone walks and gardens with granite lined paths in honor of the trail makers of the area. The home is surrounded on 3 sides by fields, with the National Park's hardwood forest edge right along the back boundary. From here it is quick to make your way down the hill to Otter Cove and beachcomb at low tide.
The yard is private with open meadows, apple trees, dragonflies, garden paths and extensive perennial gardens to enjoy. The southwest corner provides hammocks perched in the whispering ash and poplar forest, with views out to the south ridge of Cadillac Mountain.
A perfect slice of solitude for the artist, curious child, explorer.
Your secluded back patio area offers a peaceful setting where you can plan your day's adventures. It's a place to relax after a long day of exploring, or, you may choose to head the 6 miles into the hub of Bar Harbor for meals and live music. Whatever you choose, this Otter Cliff house is the perfect jumping off point to visit Mount Desert Island and Acadia, and it offers its own unique natural beauty and relaxing atmosphere.
(Please note, during the peak summer weeks, this is a Sunday check-in with a 7 night minimum stay. Otherwise, it's a 4 night minimum).

The house location was great to access Acadia. Beautiful yard and the house was very comfortable.

The location, which was practically inside the park, was great. Less than a mile from the ocean. The kitchen was sufficient for the meals we cooked there. The beds were comfortable. We usually spent the evening playing cards around the dining room table. We also took advantage of the Smart TV to watch some Netflix shows from our account. We especially appreciated the motion sensing nightlights when we got up in the middle of the night to go to the bathrooms. The hammocks were a nice touch as well.

Perfect location for exploring the area without being in the very busy and crowded town of Bar Harbor. Only 10 minutes away. A very comfortable home with a great back yard for enjoying the fall colors, cool temps, and evening fire pit. Host was wonderful. Would definitely recommend!
