Fantastic west view over the bay on a quiet, private lot.
The fantastic private waterfront setting with gorgeous sunset views makes this property a wonderful vacation destination. It was an easy 25 minute drive to Bar Harbor, Cadillac Mtn and other popular Acadia spots.
The kitchen was well stocked for meal prep and serving. Although the appliances worked well, they were old and the stove, especially, could have used a better cleaning - but nothing that kept us from wanting to use it.
Living room and dining area in the sunroom were comfortable. Wifi worked well, but we were never able to get tv reception for our entire stay. We were given a discount for this inconvenience, but it was disappointing. Perhaps the system should be checked before each rental so that there is time for it to be resolved.
The bedrooms were neat, clean and the primary has a beautiful view towards the water. Beds were very comfortable with plenty of bedding and the bathrooms were well stocked with towels and toiletries.
We did have an issue with the door lock malfunctioning. The code is long & not easy to remember, so when the door locks behind you when it shouldn’t, it causes a hassle to get back inside. I read in prior reviews that other renters had door lock issues. I think it should be replaced. It was not enjoyable stuck outside in the cold wind while contacting managers for assistance. However, they did answer our call right away, provided a finicky resolution and were able to get us into the house.
