Apartment holiday rentals in Mount Desert

Relaxing, quiet spot to stay while visiting the attractions in and around Acadia National Park, easy commute to reach the Bar Harbor area. Excellent info on things to do and see, places to eat. Perfect set up, everything needed to cook fresh lobster is provided. Yes, the water is ‘hot’ BUT ample posted warnings about the hotness! To top it off, easy to find and the pricing is amazing compared to other rentals in the area!

It was wonderful to stay in this owner operated and occupied Airbnb! You could see the effort and care put into the space - it had art work and furnishings that made it feel like staying with family. There was so much more personality and care put into the space than corporate owned and run Airbnbs. I would much rather support people from the local community than some faceless corporation. They have a binder full of info on local restaurants and recreational activists and their recommendations were really helpful! The second bathroom on the first floor was useful so we could get ready more quickly in the mornings. Overall a wonderful stay and we would love to come back and stay here again!

Wonderful place to stay in Bar Harbor! Great location to the restaurants and shopping and super short drive to Acadia. Place is quiet and was very clean. Would stay again!

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!

Great place with easy access to Bar harbor

Stephen was very responsive and friendly! The place was a perfect location for our family and very close to Acadia and Bar Harbor. The place was very clean and the heater was amazing. The view was beautiful and peaceful as well! I definitely recommend this place.

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.

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!

Super close to Acadia National Park, grocery store and a lot of restaurants. It was a perfect stay for me as a solo female hiker.

Had a great time at Connor’s place! Location is key with this rental as you are a few minutes bike ride into downtown Bar Harbor and also a few minutes drive/bike to Acadia National Park. I was able to bike from the house up Cadillac Mountain and back before my kids woke up that is how close this listing is the the National Park. Everything was as pictured and my family really enjoyed grabbing lobsters at Parson’s down the street and steaming them at the house. We had a great time biking into Bar Harbor to enjoy the town and also did many miles on the carriage roads with the family. Overall great experience and I would recommend this location/home to anyone wanting to be close to downtown and Acadia.

This place was better than I imagined! It’s beautifully decorated, very spacious, clean and comfortable. The kitchen is really well stocked and even a serious cook will have everything they need. We were supplied with tea and coffee to get started with. The apartment was exceptionally clean, and very spacious. It is an easy walk to local eateries, and groceries. We didn’t hear the cafe downstairs, however we did hear the sounds of life as people headed to work in the morning. It didn’t bother us:) Our hostess was very responsive and friendly, making communication easy! We would definitely return.

My wife and I enjoyed our stay at Alison's Bucksport apartment. We did not meet Alison, but she was great at communicating with us. The apartment was clean and comfortable and as advertised on the listing page. The apartment's location is great for walking into town or along the town's river-front walking path. We especially enjoyed having our morning coffee while viewing the Penobscot River from the outdoor deck We had a minor issue during our stay, but it was quickly resolved after communicating with Alison. We would happily stay at the "Penthouse" on future visits!

After hikes and bike rides the shower was a therapeutic experience as it had the best water pressure we’ve ever had the pleasure to experience. The bed was also very comfy. All in all a quiet, private stay.

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.

Fayranne's place has everything you need and nothing you don't! Easy to find, plenty of space to park, 2 suitcase stands, comfortable bed, big bathroom with great water pressure. My husband and I stayed here to visit Acadia and loved the location. it wasn't too far from Acadia but we also took an evening trip to Portland and Bangor for some breweries. You'll feel right at home, and we would definitely come back!

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.

Nice room very close to Acadia National Park. The place was really clean, and the little kitchen had everything we needed to cook.

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!

Loved this! It’s like the episode in Gilmore girls when Rory and Lorilia stay in an inn! Truly a great experience!

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

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!

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

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.

Robin was very communicative and thoughtful during our stay. The place was exactly as described in the listing and was immaculate upon our arrival. The space was decorated tastefully and had everything we needed to be comfortable. Great location to be near the fair in the fall! Would recommend this location and host.
