House vacation rentals in Bucksport

Me and my friends loved this BNB!! The hot tub was amazing and the pool was an awesome addition. Instructions were clear and even called to walk me through everything. Plenty of places to sleep and loads of places to go!

The house was perfect for us. Very clean and organized. Great host always responded in a timely manner. Was only about a 30 to 40 minute drive to Acadia National Park & Bar harbor, depending on traffic it could take longer. If we ever make it back to Maine I would definitely stay at the Higgins Retreat again. Thanks again Richard & Tina.

this was the 3rd time our family has stayed,again we had a fantastic time! We chose to return due to the great space, a fabulous indoor pool, great kitchen and an amazing view. Great attention to details, comfortable for large families or groups and peaceful for just 2.

We felt like at home. The house is located in a private property with swimming pool and tennis courts. It’s very clean and very peaceful. Just a clarification about the description : there’s no bathroom in the basement. Then if you come with elderly people or very young kids, it could be annoying. If you like cooking, the kitchen is very well equipped. We´ll keep a very good memory of our stay in Ducktrap Retreat during the colorful foliage season.

Thank you Christina! Great weekend stay for UMaine graduation. Great location from campus and stores for the things we forgot (haha).

Booked this place for our anniversary to get away from the city for a weekend.. we found exactly what we were looking for! The hot tub was wonderful, the house was clean and cute, and we had everything we could have needed! Estelle was very responsive and gave clear instructions for everything. Would recommend this place for a quiet getaway or a small group trip in the summer!

My return visit to the Boathouse was even lovelier than I hoped it would be. The location can't be matched by anything else I've seen. I enjoyed a September visit with my dog and was lucky to have pristine weather. I lived a very simple and healthy outdoors life and came home the better for it. The Boathouse is true to its description: it is simple and rustic and uncomplicated but well-equipped, and is perfect for one-and-dog, or for two people. A little coming-and-going from the neighboring houses meant that I didn't feel isolated. Margaret is truly an exceptional and friendly host who communicates promptly and clearly. I almost hesitate to share "my" Boathouse location with too many of my back-home friends because it feels so intimate and special. I already want to be back there. I offer my deep thanks to Margaret and to the place that I could - briefly - call home.

I recently stayed with my family at this incredible Airbnb that exceeded all my expectations. This property offered a hot tub, a pool table, and a level of privacy and tranquility that made for a truly relaxing getaway. One of the highlights of our stay was being able to watch the northern lights from the hot tub – it was absolutely magical. We spent a week in Acadia, and the location was perfect, just 15-20 minutes from Bar Harbor or the nearest town. The hosts were very responsive, and the place was fantastic for families, being both kid and pet friendly. It was a week filled with unforgettable moments, and I can't recommend this place enough!

We, my son, daughter and I, have said that this was one of our favorites we've stayed at in our forays away from home for work. The interior spaces were thoughtfully decorated which gave it a homey feel. Well done Lindsae!

We really enjoyed our stay at Matthew’s place!! The view was incredible!! It was very peaceful and quiet. The upstairs did get a little warm but using the box fans and opening the windows in the evening helped. We loved the first floor living area, it was so comfortable, and did I mention the views?!!!

Fantastic place! Excellent location, perfect for me because it’s nestled in a woodsy area with a gorgeous view and very quiet and peaceful yet still close to town in case you want to go out to eat and have some fun.. not to mention that Acadia is not that far at all down the road, which is half the reason I go to the Ellsworth area. The place was immaculately clean and Suzanne and Richard were wonderful hosts.. a big plus was having full phone reception which is great for being able to plan your days in the evening when you’re relaxing.. the tannins in the water might turn some people off but when you know how harmless tannins are its really no big deal, the shower makes the bathroom a sanctuary! Especially after a long day of hiking and adventure.. felt spoiled! Will definitely be going back again

This was a great place to stay. Everything was clean and orderly from outside to in. Worked out perfect for my family to enjoy the weekend. Plenty to do and explore. Our host was courteous and showed care for our time there which was very appreciative. Thank you for a great time to our wonderful host. I hope more come to enjoy your cozy retreat!

Our stay here was so much fun! Swimming, fishing, kayaking, there was so much to do and the water was awesome! It was the perfect place to stay to have your peaceful vacation being in a great neighborhood but it was still located close enough to places where you could go if you’re looking to get great food, or go into a nice town with other things to do. Ryan was such a great host he had so many great recommendations on what to do, and where to go nearby for everything! He really cared about your stay here and it showed, he went out of his way to make sure you felt comfortable and had fun during your vacation! He was so responsive and was there if you needed anything. We would recommend this place to stay to anybody, and would love to come back. It’s the perfect place to bring your kids and your dog and they provide so much to make sure you have fun while staying here!

This is one of the best AirBnB’s I’ve ever stayed in. The cottage was perfectly cozy and thoughtfully appointed. Christy was proactive in reaching out and also very responsive and helpful. If you are comparing this location to something else in Bangor or the surrounding area stop your search and book this place. You will not regret it. 10/10.

What a beautiful hidden gem this lake house is! Nestled into the Maine forest on the edge of the peaceful lake, it was a perfect spot for a relaxed reunion for two families. As we have small children, I appreciated that the water isn't too close to the house but still accessible via stairs. Travis and Laura were excellent hosts and had the house stocked with everything we could need for a wonderful stay!

Patti & Jerry are top-notch hosts! They care deeply about ensuring that the property has what guests might need for the best experience and investing in improvements based on guest suggestions. For them, it’s not just about making a nice space available—it’s about creating relationships. With them, it feels like we have extended family that we can visit. And we will definitely be doing that in the future!

A great spot! If you need to be close to UMaine’s campus you’re right there or just a short drive to the heart of town. Not a huge place but it was great for just me and I’m sure would have been fine with two people together.

We felt so at home at Travis’ place. We had a late check in, and I will say he was right when he said it’s tricky to find in the dark! Once we got there and looked around it got easier. Everything was so clean and cozy. We loved having the two bedrooms right next to each other. It made it easy for our young daughter to get us if she needed us at night. The view alone made us feel so at peace that not much could top it. We also appreciated the access to tvs, but not making them stick out in the home. Everywhere we went was between a 30-45 minute drive which we did not mind at all. We actually quite enjoyed it so we weren’t right by all the craziness of some of the tourist towns. I can’t say anything but amazing things about this house. If you’re looking to book and this house ends up on your list.. just book it!! You won’t regret it.

Do not hesitate to book here! This is a perfect little Airbnb with everything you need! The king size bed is amazing and the cows across the street are so cute but best off all is the hot tub just steps from the back door off the bedroom. This makes it so peaceful to watch the stars from the hot tub then walk a few steps back inside and straight into the shower. We also used this airbnb as a home base and drove to Acadia to spend a day in bar harbor and that worked great. Would happily come back here!

We Loved our stay at this sweet home. Paul is wonderful and we felt so comfortable. The views are beautiful and we were so comfortable.

Beautiful and peaceful location! While off MDI, it was still very easy to access Acadia National Park and was a convenient location overall. Wonderful views out the windows, sliders, decks, etc. The area by the water was lovely as well. As we were staying with our baby, it was so helpful to have some provided baby items—a pack and play, high chair, and a baby gate (though we didn’t us the latter)—in addition to typical items (bed linens, towels, a wide variety of kitchen essentials, etc.) Robard was an excellent host, providing lots of information before the stay and responding promptly during our stay. We couldn’t get a window to lock (user error on our part) and Robard quickly came to check it out. He arrived just as we figured it out, but was very kind about the inconvenience, and chatted with us about the area and clamming by the water.

Everything was clean and just what I expected from the listing. It was a great location in relation to Acadia National Park. We enjoyed staying in more secluded spot, but we could easily drive into the busier Bar Harbor area. I highly recommend staying at Hannah’s place!

We had a wonderful time at Joana’s home for a week! Our group of 8 had plenty of room. The home is spacious, and bright and airy with lots of natural light. The kitchen is well-stocked for cooking and has plenty of eating areas. We played a lot of ping pong in the garage on our rainy day. The primary bedroom and bathroom upstairs is top notch - comfortable and spacious! It would be good to invest more in the basement bedroom-mattress, pillows, and bedding. Note that it’s an hour to Acadia / Bar Harbor; about 45 minutes to Deer Isle. We loved all the day trips, just noting you should plan for lots of driving. Overall, it was a great week!

Great location for a family getaway in Maine. Pond was beautiful, listened to loons and frogs every night. Peaceful location.
