Like all private wells, they are self sustaining if you allow for water to replenish between use. You cannot flush any grease or food products down drain and should never flush anything besides tp down the toilet (even if packaging may say ‘flushable’).

10 / 10Outstanding·Oct 2025
We really enjoyed the private location and the spacious setup — plenty of room for our large family. The living room, dining room, and porch all had enough comfortable seating for the eight of us.The host was very easy to communicate with and shared helpful tips on local activities and where to buy groceries. The house is in a great spot — just a short drive to downtown Bar Harbor and Acadia National Park.

Everything was as described. The host was friendly and quick to respond to messages.
10 / 10Outstanding·Sep 2025
We loved the location of the house, isolated yet very close to main roads, Bar Harbor and Acadia entrances. It is very comfortable and well stocked with everything you could possibly need even walking sticks and a knapsack that we borrowed a couple of times.
6 / 10Average·Aug 2023
This home is in a great location within short distance from the main Acadia entrance and close to Bar Harbor. The house was perfect for two families to share comfortably and was quiet and beautiful.
I was not happy with the amount of constant texts and messages from the host however. When on vacation we like to take it easy and relax, not easy to do with three small children to wrangle. The host was texting me often about getting her maintenence person into the house (two days during our 1 week stay) and I felt pressured that we should leave and get out and about early and often, plus an early morning phone call and text about the garbage going out, which we had already done.
Our trip would have been more enjoyable without this disruption, otherwise it was a great place to stay.
