Facilities met our expectations and we appreciated the communication. Only complaint are the number of speed bumps and overall condition of the road. But we would stay there again.

Our family of 5 stayed here for 3 nights in July. It was a great little place for our family! It is very new and clean including appliances and amenities. 2 rooms with comfortable beds. King in 1 room and single over double bunk with an additional twin in the other room. We knew this going in, but 1 bathroom was not ideal and it wouldn’t make me change my mind about going back. The location is a little off the beaten path, but it was so nice to get away from the thousands of people in Acadia and Bar Harbor in July. Close to Bass Harbor. Dirt road to get out to the property has quite a few pot holes and speed bumps. We did hear the people upstairs one night but overall didn’t even know there was another apartment. Overall great stay and would definitely recommend!
