Family vacation

Visting Acadia National Park and Bar Harbor was amazing. Lobster rolls like no other in South Harbor. The home we stayed in was lovely and met all our needs. Beautiful property in a great location. Loved seeing the deer out front when we arrived.

Great dog-friendly spot!

We enjoyed our stay here while in town for a family reunion! It’s a lovely, quiet spot and the house (clearly recently updated/renovated) is clean, organized, and well-stocked. We also appreciated how dog-friendly it was and loved being such a short walk from the Bass Harbor Light.

Well-Appointed House, Quiet Stay, Great Location

Joseph and Christina's house is a quiet, clean, well-appointed house in a great location. It's on the quieter side of Mt. Desert Island (which was great for our family). Bass Harbor Head Light is right down the road (walking distance), and the lovely little town of Southwest Harbor is a short drive up the road. Bar Harbor and the big sights in Acadia NP are a just a short drive away. We loved our stay at Driftwood.

Amazing place to stay

Enjoyed staying at this property. It was very close to a bunch of major locations as well as a great restaurant called Archie’s lobster. We were able to get to a lot of the Arcadia attractions with 20 minutes, which is exactly what we were looking for. We were far enough away that we were in the middle of the woods. The kitchen was well stocked, and they had so much firewood to enjoy in the evenings. Thanks for the amazing stay.

Peaceful Getaway

We loved our time in Bass Harbor. The house had everything we needed. It was close enough to Bar Harbor and Southeast Harbor, but far enough away to be quiet. We loved exploring Seawall and the nature cruise we took.

Amazing Stay!

We had the best time exploring Acadia and being able to stay at this amazing home! It literally had everything you could possibly need. It was so clean, comfortable and peaceful. Being greeted every morning by the cute little deer was an extra bonus. It was great being walking distance to the Bass Harbor Lighthouse and a 4 minute drive to the Wonderland Trail. And close enough to end most evenings in Southwest Harbor. Looking forward to returning in the future!
