We really enjoyed our stay at the Lazy Lumberjack Hilltop Cabin! The home was exceptionally clean and beautifully designed! The location was so quiet and peaceful! We would definitely stay again if we head back to the area!

Our stay was mostly amazing, minus the issues with the grill. Although the cylinder was half full, the grill stopped working 20 mins into use. Even after following directions as written on the grill side, it would ignite and go out again. It definitely needs to be cleaned properly to get rid of all the buildup and grease underneath. That was disappointing since we had a BBQ meal planned and had to stop in between.
I love the clear driving directions but we would have appreciated some sort of lighting or at least radium stickers to show the pathway up the hill to the cabin, especially for when returning after sunset so that we know which way to drive.
Otherwise, stay was very comfortable, clean and well supplied.

Beautiful home! Easy drives to Acadia National Park and Bar Harbor. Would definitely recommend!
6 / 10Average·Jun 2025
The location of this rental is as good as it seems. 12-15 minutes to Bar Harbor, but easy access to both sides of Mt. Desert Island and Acadia. The backyard and firepit were great.
We also enjoyed the sheer size of the house and the privacy that it provided, with members or our group able to break off and have alone time (great for naps!). Beds were reasonably comfortable.
That said, we had some issues with the location not having been fully cleaned when we arrived -- the washing machine was full of towels and the game room couch had used pillows and blankets on them as if someone had slept there and no one bothered to clean them. I alerted vacasa but they did nothing in response, which was disappointing. We also felt that, for a high dollar rental, too much was missing from the kitchen -- no coffee, no dishcloths/sponges, no salt shaker, no cooking oil or PAM spray, among other items. We had to run out to the grocery for an extra trip to buy some of these essentials, which was annoying but not the end of the world.
