Clean, quiet, comfortable townhome in a very convenient location. Nice well-appointed kitchen. Townhome was only a couple of blocks to walk to the Main Street area and town square, and it was only a short drive to Acadia National Park. Really enjoyed our stay. Check-out tasks were more extensive than we usually encounter so need to allow some extra time on the day of departure.

Location location location! Our location was excellent! It has 3 bedrooms nicely sized. Full updated kitchen. The carpet upstairs is not the greatest. Probably needs to be changed to some sort of laminate. For better cleanliness. Parking was perfect outside the front door. And basically 15 minutes from any place inside the park or within walking distance to downtown Main Street. Overall we thank the host and their property for a pleasant stay and perfect location.
