Perfect size for the 6 of us. Very clean property. Easy drive to Bar Harbor and Acadia NP. Nice quiet area - we took the short trail hike near the house at dusk and felt very safe.
Great place to enjoy a fall getaway! Loved the privacy of this home, especially the back deck and the firepit in the yard which we used every night. Highly recommend this home!!
I thought the reviews were too good to be true when I booked this, but honestly, they are completely representative! Very clean, beautiful setting, and thoughtful details throughout house.
The house is very clean and in a great location to see all of Acadia. The upstairs is a wonderful open space- would be even better with a bathroom up there :) Communication with hosts was fast and easy. Great house for families to experience Acadia!
This property was everything that we needed as a family. Beautiful location and easily accessible. Perfectly located to make day trips to either side of the Acadia National Park. Yet within 7 to 10 minutes from anything in town if you needed something there. The upstairs family room was incredible for family time. We absolutely loved this place.
We survived Hurricane Lee in this beautifully appointed cottage!! The generator kicked in automatically when the power went out and we continued our card game without a care in the world!! Very clean, comfortable and close to Ellsworth with lots of dining options!! Perfect for our 2 couple group!!
We loved our stay here at Lamoine property. It was very clean, had organized cabinets. They even supplied with extra towels and dishwasher and washer supplies. My kids loved hanging out in the media room after a long day of hiking. Highly recommend surrounding local restaurants.
The property was beautiful and clean. it was very comfortable. The location was great- a short drive to Acadia or Bar Harbor. Paige and Kate were in touch prior to our arrival and were very responsive to the small issue we had at check-in. If we return to Maine, we would definitely stay here again.
We had a great time staying at the cottage during our trip to Bar Harbor and Acadia National Park. The location is perfect for exploring the park and other sweet towns around the area. Everything you need to cook or grill for those evenings you just want to relax. Paige was extremely accommodating and a wonderful host.
What a lovely home. The owners did a fabulous job of providing everything you could need. We were in Acadia National Park during our 4 day stay and it worked out perfect. Would highly recommend.
This cozy cottage was perfect for me and my family (2 adults + 4 children). We explored Acadia National Park for three days and had a blast. Finding parking in Bar Harbor is a challenge, so spending our nights in Lamoine provided us a quiet retreat where we could cook and relax.
If we come back to Maine I’d definitely try to book this house again. If they can add a half bath upstairs this house would be unbeatable.
We were initially hesitant to book a VRBO that was off MDI for our vacation to Acadia NP in August. Boy, we were we wrong! This property has a PERFECT location, especially during the summer when tourists take over the park. You are close enough (30 minutes or less depending on traffic) to the park but far enough away to escape the madness that is Bar Harbor. Likewise, you are close to Ellsworth, which has great restaurants with no waits. And the property? Gorgeous. It is probably the first VRBO we ever stayed at that looks exactly like it does in the pictures. Clean, modern, perfect for families. I am a self-avowed VRBO snob and I absolutely loved this place. Yeah, a half bath upstairs would be nice but it's really a small quibble. Paige and Katie are super accessible and really have all your travel bases covered. Brava!
The condo was in a great location with easy access to Acadia and Bar Harbor. It was very quiet there and we had deer in the front yard one day. The walk trail across was a great place to get some exercise.
This property has a great location to Bar Harbor and Acadia National park. The house offers great amenities and the property is beautiful. The host are responsive to emails, and very helpful.
