“We have been renting this property for 15 years now. We have rented many other places in this area since the early 90’s. Bar Harbor View is the best of all the places we have stayed. Proximity to Acadia, Bar Harbor and Ellsworth while being very private provides everything we enjoy. In 1975 we camped at Barcadia with our 3 children so know and love the area. A porcupine hung around the upper driveway for a few days. As we drove out leaving, we stopped for 5 deer and 20 turkeys crossing the driveway. Grandson Evan and his girl fished from their kayaks and caught mackerel. They were visited by seals and dolphins. On our second day view from the deck we watched a bald eagle catch fish with a golden eagle sitting on nearby rocks. Kudos to the keepers… the place was spotless when we arrived. Thank you Rick and Shelby for making this place available to rent.” – Judy, 2020
“Our stay was great! We just missed the lobster season, so had to buy them ourselves to cook at the rental. The kitchen was fully stocked with everything we needed to make the lobsters and all our food. Everything was well stocked and clean. It got chilly at night, and we were able to start up the fireplace. The rental is right next to the water, we were able to watch the sunrise and sunset everyday. Loved that they provided kayaks and all necessary equipment with it. Whenever we had questions, the owners were super helpful and quick in reply. Overall, great place!” – Shirley, 2020

“We had an awesome week at cottage last week! The weather was great and, for the first time in a long while, we were there before Columbus Day and everything was still open. Hopefully no more travel advisories and face masks next year!” – Gary, 2020
