It was on a quiet street. Our problems were not having any ac in July. The one bedroom is upstairs and the only bathroom is downstairs. Few windows need shades badly. It wakes you up with the sun if you sleep on the futon or sofabed. Overall cute property. ##### Dillaila W.

Beds were hard and supplies were minimal but overall adequate. Host replied immediately when we had an issue with the tv. ##### Barbara B.

It had just the right amount of space for our family of four; we didn’t want a hotel room or a large home. One of our daughters used the loft futon and the other decided to use the foldout couch; both slept well. We were busy exploring the island and park so didn’t spend too much time at the home during the morning and afternoon, but it was the perfect place to end the day. The house was very clean, well cared for, and nicely furnished. Construction seemed recent and well done. It had just about everything we needed and was easy to find things such as extra sheets for the fold out couch. We liked the access to a washer and dryer. The kitchen had most items to prep a couple of breakfasts and dinners. The host was easy to communicate with and responsive. The location was convenient to Southwest Harbor and restaurants. The setting is very pleasant. We appreciated being away from the busiest areas of the island and still felt like it was easy to get around. We hope to be back to explore more! ##### Amy W.
