About this house rental
Carpenter`s Quarters was owned by a well known beloved Carpenter in Seal Harbor for many decades. After his passing almost all wooden aspects of the home are still original pieces handcrafted by the original owner over his lifetime. The home embodies a classic Maine feel -- sit at the front porch and hear the silence & calming water from the Stanley Brook
-1min Drive / 10-12min Walk - Park Loop Rd Acadia National Park
-2min Drive / 14min Walk - Seal Harbor Beach
-14min Drive Bar Harbor Downtown
As you move about the home you will notice all of the handmade wooden items; every chair, dresser, table, cabinet, and bed frame were made by the original owner.
The location of this home is perfect for people wanting to be super close to an entrance of Acadia National Park and is perfect for guests planning on riding bicycles in the park. The location is also super close and a 0.5mile walk down to Seal Harbor Beach which is always great to do with kids!

10 / 10Outstanding·Jul 2026
This is the best location in Acadia. Away from the hustle and bustle of Bar Harbor. Great local neighborhood restaurant called the Lighthouse. Acadia Outdoor Center is a half a mile walk down the hill where you can rent ebikes, get hiking gear and snacks, or get a blueberry latte and delicious gelato. The house was great for our family of 5. It is an old, charming 1940s era bungalow. All the bedrooms are upstairs and the one bath is down. The stairs are quite steep with narrow planks. The washer and dryer are in the basement which has a very low head clearance (I'm 6'3") and is not the most inviting space in the house. However, the newer and very large capacity washer and dryer are great and a very nice amenity. The kitchen is well stocked and has everything you need including a coffee maker that does k-cups (bring your own) and traditional brew (Filters and coffee provided). The dining room table was perfect with seating for six and the two living rooms were perfect. One for TV and one for reading/relaxing. Plenty of parking for two or three cars in the driveway and a nice deck out back for grilling. The does have AC upstairs. There are window units in two rooms an upright unit in the other. They are a little loud...We ebiked for three days and it was awesome to be a mile and a half from Jordan Pond House and the carriage roads. Our host was great and was very prompt with communication. Highly recommend this spot. It's an incredible value, truly a hidden gem!

Cute little house in a great location. Was a great base camp for our exploration of the national park
6 / 10Average·Jul 2024
This house has a great location close to Acadia Park. It has good bones but is very dated. Unfortunately, there is only AC in the bedrooms and most windows in the house do not have screens so you can’t get airflow without bugs invading the house, making for a very stuffy environment. The house was clean but not incredibly comfortable. That said, the location helped as we spent most of our time outdoors in the amazing park.
