Ellsworth is a great little town. This house is five minutes from the more commercial district and five minutes from the old Main Street district. It’s a little less than a half hour from the front of the park, but the drive in is beautiful. Well kept house and very cute. We highly recommend and would stay here again.

Relaxing home near everything!

We enjoyed our stay in Nestled in Nature, having a kitchen was crucial for four people. The bedrooms were comfortable, the bathroom, clean and lots of hot water! The location was ideal, equal distance between Acadia and the Schoodic portion of the park. We ate more lobster than I budgeted for, not sorry!

The property was a lovely place to “land” after a day in Acadia with many amenities. We had a bedroom and bathroom for every adult and the location was quiet and quaint. Highly recommend this listing!
