Houses in Bar Harbor

We loved our room and peaceful and beautiful surroundings. Getting up every morning surrounded by trees and birds chirping. Heather was the perfect host and we absolutely loved all her recommendations, especially our Acadia tour guide Rich. Don’t hesitate book this place!!!

This Airbnb was a perfect spot for a couple to explore all of Mount Desert Island . We stayed for 6 nights and experienced Maine’s beautiful fall foliage. It was exactly as described - peaceful and private - away from busy bar harbor - but easy enough 15 min drive to and from and to Park entrance. we enjoyed the fire pit, cozy living area and used the kitchen to cook in after busy days on the trail … would highly recommend. And Traveling Lobster right down the road is amuse for Best Lobster Rolls !

Great place. Exactly as described. Julie and Rich went above and beyond with recommendations and itineraries. Would stay there again!

Ann's place is beautiful, comfortable, and clean. The views from the back deck are stunning! Ann was also very responsive when we needed some help figuring out a small issue with an appliance. I would definitely stay here again!

Mandi and Michael’s place was a dream come true! Our jaws dropped the moment we stepped foot out of the car and walked the path to the cabin. As hosts, they thought of everything we could need and more. Our stay at the Happy Loon was better than we could’ve imagined. Thank you both for making our trip so magical. We appreciate your hospitality and for sharing your beautiful property with us.

The location was perfect - you didn’t need your car to get around. We were right at the main square or park with lots of interesting shops and restaurants close by. We were 10 minutes from Acadia National Park. Highly recommend spending the extra $6 to drive up Cadillac Mountain. The unit was well appointed, clean, and had games for the kids to play. I did’t care for the shower but I am not used to a claw-foot tub shower. Overall really enjoyed our stay!

Super lovely! We enjoyed our stay here, clean & cozy as home. Great location. Would definitely come back. Highly recommend!

We loved the place! The house is cozy and roomy but feels secluded even though you are right at the entrance of the camp grounds. It is conveniently located a short drive to downtown bar harbor and Acadia NP so you aren’t wasting much time driving around. Highly recommended the place to couples/small families looking for a nice place to stay on MDI!

Eric is a super friendly host and he knows the local recommendations. His cabin is easy to check-in, clean and very peaceful. One sidenote is this listing doesn't provide wifi, making it ideal for people looking for an unplugged getaway. We truly enjoyed our time on the beautiful Maine coast!

My family felt instantly at home in Mark’s cozy cottage. We enjoyed the beautiful view of the water and our quiet and peaceful mornings spent by the fire (Mark thoughtfully kept us stocked with wood). If you’re looking to visit MDI it was an easy 30min drive. We cannot wait to return in the future!

We would highly recommend staying at Jean-Yves and Carol's place! The location was perfect to be a home-base for exploring, with day trips to Bangor, Rockland, Acadia, Bar Harbor, and more! The space was incredibly charming, with a very comfy bed. We're so thankful that it was dog friendly so that our pups could enjoy beautiful Maine with us! The only caution we'd have for someone considering this is that there are spiral staircases to both get inside and to get up to the bedroom - if that's not a concern for you, book it!

We had a great time at Keri’s for our honeymoon! There were very clear instructions and a helpful little instruction sheet for anything we might need, including local recommendations! We felt right at home and it still felt like a very private space even though there is a shared yard with the main house. We would DEFINITELY return if we were ever in the area.

We stayed here our last night while visiting Acadia. Super cute little cabin! We loved that they had a common space in the main house that was full of supplies and very welcoming. Would stay here again!

Had a fantastic stay. I love how dog friendly it is. As a dog owner, I didn’t feel like we were being a burden. We’ve stayed at other “dog friendly” Airbnbs and they have had weird rules about furniture. We had no issues with that at all at Seamist. Felt completely comfortable there.

Lauren’s cottage was fantastic! Warm and cozy. Beautifully decorated and had everything we needed. The weather was unfortunately chilly and wet during part of our stay and the cottage was perfect to relax.

Cute place with everything we needed. Very peaceful and private location but close enough to Bar Harbor and hiking trails in the park. All in all, perfect for our needs.

We absolutely loved our stay at Sweetwater! The home is beautiful, spacious, and sophisticated. It’s located in a peaceful corner of Southwest Harbor—perfect for relaxing after adventures in Acadia. The open-concept living area made it easy to gather as a family, whether we were lounging by the stone hearth, cooking in the well-equipped kitchen, or enjoying meals together. The multiple patios were a dream for morning coffee and evening unwinding. We had a campfire every night and walked to Beale's Lobster Pier by walking across the causeway one evening. Upstairs, all three bedrooms were thoughtfully designed for comfort—plush mattresses, soft linens, and just the right lighting. The master suite, in particular, felt like a serene retreat with its water view and private bath. This place felt like a true home away from home. We’d come back in a heartbeat and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a quiet, stylish, and well-appointed spot near Acadia.

Very pleasant place to stay and the owners were very accommodating and easy to communicate with. Very responsive. Would give more than 5 stars if I could. Highly recommend.

The location of the house was perfect for our visit to Acadia. It was very quiet and serene with beautiful views of the lake. We enjoyed fishing off the dock and the fire pit at night. We highly recommended this hidden little gem.

Brian’s AirBnb is in a quiet and safe neighborhood. The keypad check in is simple. The home is spotless. There are plenty of linens and kitchenware. The home is close to Acadia and downtown Ellsworth. If you want a short drive to Acadia and MDI, this is your place!

The house was exactly as described. It was a perfect location that left most of the midtown (or downtown?) area at a walkable distance. It was relatively peaceful too. We only had three very minor issues while there. First the WiFi was down when we arrived, but they were very responsive and came same day to fix it. Second, we got a little confused about the parking. Again the host was super responsive and helped explain it to us. Lastly, if you are renting the house for four or more people I recommend buying your own shampoo, conditioner, and body wash. The host provided some and we never reached out for more but they are very small and probably won’t last a group. I’m sure if we had reached out they would have provided more but we decided to go buy some to save everyone effort. The house was beautiful and the amenities were very thoughtful. They have provided boardgames which we took advantage of and a lobster pot! I highly recommend this place.

Aaron's place was fantastic for our party of 6 (my partner and me, our kids, her parents). The house was located perfectly on the North end of Mt. Desert Island by Hadley Point Beach (where we were lucky to catch both a meteor shower and the Northern Lights.) While the lower level had a separate entrance, the kids appreciated the additional privacy/area away from adults. The entire house was clean and the beds were very comfortable. All of the amenities (well stocked kitchen, two bathrooms, washer/dryer, patio) were much appreciated. We'd definitely stay again when visiting Acadia.

We had a great stay! Surrounded by beautiful nature. Very private but close 15 min drive into bar harbor. Trail head in the backyard was an added bonus. Very comfortable and large space to hang out! Loved our stay and would come back!

We loved our stay! Everything was as described and we had everything we needed in the kitchen to cook several meals. The view is absolutely beautiful from all parts of the house and we loved the outdoor amenities. Lucy was very responsive and gave us some great recommendations! Would love to come back!
