Perfect for relaxing after hiking the trails of the park or kayaking in the ocean or lakes. The kitchen is fully equipped for cooking for a large group! Farmhouse sink and table inside and outside for family meals! Fire pit, gas grill, and lobster cooker available! The property is dog friendly for dogs 50 lbs and under with a pet fee $125.00. Smart TV in all the bedrooms and living room. The house has air conditioning also for keeping cool in the Summer. Please note that the Air Conditioner is only on the first floor. Windows and large fans upstairs. Rarely does the temperature at night become to
    hot. If you rent in the Fall we have a gas stove for keeping warm. The property is up the street from Bass Harbor Lighthouse. Ferry Terminal and hiking trails only 5 mins away! Located on the quiet side of the Island but only a short drive to Bar Harbor. Many great restaurants and stores on our side of island too. Decorated with a classic theme. The house was totally rebuilt and redecorated 3 years ago. We provide comfortable sheets and linens. This is very important to our family. There are two separate rooms with queen beds and another bunk room that has three single beds. Trundle bed in living room.

    There is another guest house in the back that is rented separate from the main house.
