We loved our stay at this home, particularly for its peaceful location away from the hustle of Bar Harbor. The house itself is charming and well-maintained, and the quiet surroundings made for a relaxing getaway.
However, there are a few things we wish we had known before arrival to make our stay more comfortable. The upstairs area does not have a cooling unit or fan, which could be an issue during warmer months. Additionally, it would have been helpful to know in advance that coffee pods were needed rather than loose coffee, as well as other essentials like shampoo and toilet paper. We’ve stayed in many rentals over the years, and it’s been our experience that hosts typically provide a clear list of what’s included.
The kitchen is beautiful and has a selection of cooking supplies, but it’s worth noting that it lacks a standard-sized baking pan, only having a broiler pan that’s significantly smaller. This might be something to consider if you plan on doing much baking during your stay.
Overall, the home is lovely and offers a great escape from the busy areas, but a few additional details in the pre-arrival information and some kitchen supplies could enhance the experience.
