Osprey Nest: Elevated ocean views, walk to town
Amazing place to stay if looking to explore Bar Harbor and Acadia! Lots to do around. Place was as described and pictured. A lot of space! Beautiful views from the balcony. Wish we stayed longer. When we come back, will definitely stay again!

Top Floor 1 BR Downtown Waterfront BH! [High Tide]
My family, including two little kids, had a wonderful stay at this apartment in Bar Harbor. The location is fantastic for walking around the town. A highlight for us was the large windows and balcony, which afforded beautiful, changing views of the harbor. We were especially grateful for this amenity when we needed to retreat back to the apartment during the patches of bad weather on our trip. We'd love to stay here again on another trip to Acadia!

Crow's Nest by the Harbor
Emma’s place was a very tranquil stay on the quiet side. Close to Acadia national park but far enough way to feel away from it all. We loved the couch after a long day of hiking. This air bnb had everything we needed! We could have stayed longer. Would recommend to anyone visiting the island.

Ocean view apartment in Seawall
2nd time staying here. Came in September for my Wife's birthday. This time we actually were on our honeymoon in Utah going to all the national parks, but after a week of 100 degree hikes we said let's actually enjoy our honeymoon and go to our favorite place we have been to. We loved acadia and this Air bnb so much we changed our flights to come here for the last week. Beautiful A frame house you can see the ocean. We ate lobster the whole week and hiked acadia, and it was awesome to come back to this place and rest. Recommending everyone we know to this place. I have a friend getting married and he is going to come for his honeymoon and stay here. My brothers were jealous and they are planning om coming up here at some point too. 10/10 I will be back.

Captain Mayo's Garden Terrace
Loved our stay here on the quiet side of the island. Place was cozy and perfect for two. Recommend!

Winter Harbor Apartment
We absolutely loved our stay at Winter Harbor apartment. The place was immaculate and there were clear instructions about everything we needed to know. The setting was so peaceful and quiet and just what we needed. The recommendations Wes provided were spot on and we loved that they were laminated so we could take them with us when we went out exploring. We hope to return someday!

Acadia Park Suites #1
Very clean and comfortable space. Perfect for two people and less than 15minutes from the famous Acadia light house and about 30 minutes from bar harbor.

Keeper's House Apartment at the Lighthouse
This was a destination vacation for a special celebration. It was beautiful and peaceful. It exceeded expectations in every way; the place was very clean, and well equipped with many thoughtful touches, the space had nice trails, beaches, views and history, everyone we met was friendly, warm and helpful, and the fresh fish every night was such a treat. Good was great and great was excellent. One of favorite places for sure.

Aldernest Loft -MDI -walk across the lawn to shore
The place was very beautiful. Its a perfect location for stay if you are planning to visit Acadia National Park. The place itself was very clean and well maintained. Kathleen was very helpful and responded quickly to our questions. They also have access to the shore at a 2 min walk which is a good spot to hangout during sunrise and sunset.

MDI quiet side adorable 1 bedroom + loft apartment
David's place exceeded our expectations . The pictures don't do it justice. Very clean and spacious. I would highly recommend.

The Sable Loft
My wife and I spent a few days here after our wedding. We found it to be the perfect spot outside of Bar Harbor where we frequently visited just 35-40 minutes away! The house was clean and Skyler was very responsive and accommodating. Ellsworth has a nice little downtown as well with some nice stores and good restaurants. If you’re looking for a nice place to stay, where the host is responsive and the house is quiet, my wife and I definitely recommend this stay!

The Tapley Suite @Bass Harbor Cottages. AC. K.
We had a wonderful time at Mel's place! The room & area was exactly as described - very peaceful and quiet. The working fireplace in our room definitely added to the charm, and we appreciated having a kitchen area to make coffee in the mornings. Mel was also very communicative; our flight was delayed getting in, and he left clear instructions for check-in. Overall, we had an amazing visit and will definitely be back!

Your favorite little Airbnb near Acadia!
My husband & I really enjoyed our stay at this place. It is a modernized unit inside of a really cool old house! Really nice bathroom &clean kitchen! It's in a cute hilly neighborhood down the street from the quaint downtown Ellsworth &only 30 min drive to Bar Harbor & Acadia! Everything was clean & comfortable except the mattress is a bit worn out. The smart TV & comfy couch were great. Riverside Cafe down the st. for amazing breakfast/lattes. We loved the local recommendations hanging by the door. We tried almost all of them! Geddy's in Bar Harbor was our fave for decor, fish tacos and blueberry pie. Ivy Manor Inn for great ambiance/cocktails, McKays Public House for an incredible higher end dinner in a victorian house, Ben&Bills Chocolate Emporium Awesome ice cream,Graffiti Donuts is amazing too! If flying home from Bangor AP, be sure to hit up The Eagles Nest sitting at the rivers edge (only 15 mins from the ap) for Amazing lobster rolls, lobster grilled cheese,& the best fries! A+

Main Street Suite with Waterfront Resort Access
This place was perfect for me! Right in the center of town with easy access to all my favorite bar harbor shops and restaurants. Instructions were super clear on check in and I loved having the parking at balance rock inn. This is also the only Airbnb that I’ve stayed in that had an excess towels which was amazing after long days of hiking and multiple showers.

Amazing views-newly built carriage house near ANP
If you are looking for a vacation that is quiet, relaxing and with stunning views then this is the place! Only 10 minutes from downtown bar harbor and quick easy access to Acadia. Honestly, my wife and I made less trips to Acadia because the views from the property were better! The hosts are fantastic and have everything you need for a comfortable stay. Highly recommend.

Newly renovated 1842 farmhouse - The Ell
Such a beautiful little farmhouse! When putting in the address, it took us to the wrong location, but Amy answered the phone and helped us arrive to the correct place. She even gave us some delicious pot pies for the inconvenience. I've never written a review before, but this place impressed my mom and I so much I had to write a review! She's so thoughtful and has everything you could imagine stocked in the airbnb. From extra linens, to snacks, sandwich baggies, and even reusable water bottles! If I ever go back to Acadia, I would stay here again. The photos don't do it justice, the place is adorable! Thanks so much Amy!

17 Lodge Near Acadia. Sleeps 4 Open Hearth Inn
We had a great stay at Open Hearth Inn. Arthur is a great host. We had an issue with door of our cottage not being locked. He addressed our concern immediately and provided us with another accomodation so that we could feel safe at night.

Open Hearth Inn Suite 3 - 10 min to Acadia!
A must stay for those exploring Acadia/Bar Harbor! The Open Hearth Inn was truly a family feel. The owners and the wonderful management team thought of everything you could want/need. This included treats for doggos, snacks for guests, board games, and even s’more kits to enjoy by the fire. Very quick drive to Acadia and Bar Harbor but also a lovely place to hangout on the days when you can’t do one more hike. Thank you for a wonderful experience!

6 Lovely 1Br Acadia Apartment Open Hearth Inn
We felt right at home at the Open Hearth Inn. Arthur and his team were very friendly and helpful. The inn is stocked with everything you need to enjoy your stay, including snacks and treats for both humans and pups. We enjoyed the fire pit and hot tub when we weren’t hiking in Acadia. Definitely a great experience!

5 Suite in 1820's house Open Hearth Inn
This place is a great find! Easy to check in and out, adorable little inn, and the bakery across the street was delicious.

This place was so cute! We loved our room and it was in a great location to explore Acadia for the weekend.

4 Lovely Suite near Acadia Open Hearth Inn
We LOVED our stay at Open Hearth Inn! We booked the room as a landing space during our trip to Acadia and it was perfect. The coziest and quaintest space, just outside of busy Bar Harbor! There were so many amenities (hot tub, full kitchen, fire pit, etc.) and the hosts were so generous and welcoming- there were even brownies left for guests one morning! 😭❤️ There are a plethora of guides and recommendations from the hosts in the lobby, we utilized them to find a kayaking spot during our trip. The common spaces are equally as cozy as the home, complete with loads of games and a TV! We are so glad we chose Open Hearth Inn and enjoyed spending time in the most homely and beautiful space!

Penthouse Private Balconies Beach and Water Views
I can't say enough about this place. Traveling with 4 seniors with mobility problems can be a challenge but Linda was beyond amazing and accommodating. The home had everything you needed and more. I can't wait to be able to come back

Water Views - Beach Getaway - Private Balcony
Perfect studio. Used the jetted tub, nice and relaxing. Lots of extras (new toiletries, coffee, filters, sugar, etc.) much appreciated and used. The view, esp at sunrise, was stunning. Quiet neighbors. The beach store (pizza, sandwiches, salads, coffee and more) was very good. Just down stairs and one building over. (get there early for their muffins) I would certainly stay here again.
