Condo in the heart of town.
Charming first-floor apartment situated in the heart of town, thoughtfully restored from a physician`s office and boasting an intriguing layout. This gem features three tastefully furnished bedrooms, two with queen-sized beds, one with a full bed, and a shared bathroom equipped with a tub/shower combo.
Unwind in the delightful living room while enjoying your favorite TV show, or indulge in a good book from our collection. The space also features a well-equipped full kitchen, a vintage-chic dining room, and a private laundry facility. For those combining work and pleasure, our quaint work nook complete with a desk and chair will meet all your needs.
Delight in the unique history of our apartment, as each room harks back to its original function. The dining room was the former receptionist’s office, the bedrooms used to serve as exam rooms, and the living room was the doctor’s waiting area.
The apartment`s prime location on a serene side street offers immediate access to the town’s best bakeries, restaurants, and amenities. Everything is within convenient walking distance, including Bar Island, Hannaford`s Grocery, Cadillac Mountain Sports, Rosalie`s Pizza, Criterion Theatre, and Side Street Café.
You will appreciate the convenience of two included parking spaces - a rarity in town. We are just a short call away should you need any assistance, residing in our year-round home nearby.
Conveniently accessible by walking or biking, the apartment is ideal for all-year-round vacations or flexcations.
Being lifelong locals, we are proud to offer you this exclusive location that balances access to the local bakery, old fashioned candy store, brewery, shopping, and dining with the quiet charm of a quaint side street.
Experience the magic of staying in a place that was formerly our family doctor`s office, now passionately repurposed while preserving the town`s personal history and memories. Enjoy the charming character of our quirky layout and relish the unique memories woven into the building’s history.

We greatly enjoyed our stay at this property. The host was very responsive and helpful and there were many thoughtful touches in the condo.
We especially enjoyed the easy walk to restaurants and the waterfront and the shops of Bar Harbor.
We highly recommend this property.
The Physicians Flat had everything we needed for our stay with our baby. We were very comfortable. And it was a great location to walk into town but had very little street noise. We would gladly stay here again.
We stayed here with our teenage daughter during our first trip to Maine. The location of this flat is perfect. We walked everywhere downtown. It was so clean and cozy and stocked with most everything we needed. We enjoyed game nights after a few days of hiking in Acadia. We would definitely stay here again.
From before we arrived, communication was great. The property was as advertised, only better. Great location with easy parking, clean, well stocked and plenty of room for our family of 5!
Lovingly preserved historic property with everything you could need for an enjoyable stay. The home was very comfortable with good mattresses, sofas and great appliances. It was well stocked with no scrimping on anything and very straightforward guidelines. The hosts also left lots of rainy day activities for kids and terrific guidebooks for hikers. We would definitely stay here again
My husband and I rented this cozy first floor apartment for a four night stay in Bar Harbor. While we only needed one bedroom, it would be a perfect spot for a family with children thanks to having three bedrooms. It's location was perfect - tucked onto a street right in town. You can literally walk everywhere! And they have thought of everything in terms of conveniences: back-up toiletries, coffee station, kitchen essentials, washer/dryer, games, local guidebooks, etc.
We absolutely loved our stay at the Physician’s Flat! It was exactly as pictured and right in the center of town, just a short drive to Acadia. The rental was very comfortable and very well decorated. It had all of the essentials, and then some. We’ve stayed in a lot of VRBOs and this definitely ranked at the top! We would absolutely recommend and would return.
The area itself is amazing - we loved exploring Acadia and Bar Harbor and surrounding towns.
We loved our stay at the Physician's Flat Condo. The location was perfect—a one-minute walk to restaurants and shops and a very easy drive to Acadia Park. The amenities in the condo made our time even more enjoyable, and the hosts left a goodie basket, which was so thoughtful and appreciated. The hosts were very communicative and responded immediately to our concerns (we had a little trouble with the lock on the front door). We will definitely go back.
Our family stayed here in August to visit Bar Harbor and Acadia National Park. This property was everything we needed and more. Just the right size and all the convenience of home. The owners were fantastic with communication and very kind. The location (and parking!!!) just can’t be beat. We loved it here and hope to come back!
The physician flat was the perfect location for walking around Bar Harbor. It was filled with all of the little things we didn’t know we needed. And the owners had suggestions for everything from where to eat to the best hiking trails to good running routes. Would definitely recommend staying here. We were there with our 4 daughters. Everyone loved the flat, the town and Acadia.
We all throughly enjoyed our stay at the physicians flat in downtown Bar Harbor. It was walking distance to downtown, w walking distance to the grocery store and conveniently located to drive to Acadia! You could even bike to the biking trails if you are motivated!
They had everything you need to cook and have a comfortable stay. We highly recommend this Vacation home and plan on returning next year! The owners are very responsive and helpful! You can tell that they truly care about your experience!
This flat was charming and fun especially because it has a great story. It is perfectly located so that we could walk everywhere in town. There was plenty of room for relaxing. Our hosts set up the the place with special welcoming things like a snack basket, coffee station, cozy blankets, and a booklet with helpful hints about where to go and what to do in the area. They obviously love their home town and want you to enjoy your stay. We would come back next week if we could.
We enjoyed our stay at this adorable flat and absolutely loved being able to walk to incredible views, shops and restaurants in minutes. The flat is comfortable and well stocked with little extras like coffee, snacks, & toiletries. We did not need to shop for anything during our stay. Desiree was a great communicator and the recommendations in the book were spot on. Some of our favs: Beehive hike (for some of us, not all who couldn't handle heights), Ocean Path hike, ebikes on Carriage path, Sunrise at Cadillac Mountain (book online two days before and daughter had brilliant idea to refresh screen after 15 minutes if it sells out right at 10am because everyone has 15 minutes to complete the registration). Not enough time to try all of the wonderful places to eat, but loved Cafe This Way, Rosalies, La Brun, Havana, Merchant & Frye, Side Street Cafe, MDI Icecream.
The flat is adorable and super clean. I loved the quirkiness! The hosts have so many things available in case you forget something which is so thoughtful. The location is perfect. My son and I walked everywhere. It never took more than 10 minutes to get to our destination. There is a grocery store, Walgreens, many restaurants and quaint shops all within walking distance. The only time we got in the car was to go hiking at Acadia and to go see the sunrise at Cadillac mountain. The drive was a few minutes away. We spent 4 nights there. I wish I had planned for a couple more. There is so much to do in the area. I will definitely plan another trip there and wouldn't hesitate to book our stay at the Physician's Flat. Thank you hosts!
Such a wonderful home away from home for my family for the last few days. We enjoyed the location so very much. Convenient to everything - we walked to shops, restaurants, bike rentals, the sand bar/Bar Island and event the Grocery! The home has so many little touches that go above and beyond. The basket of local snacks were clutch when we drove in from Portland Sat night after 11 pm! The coffee station was amazing with everything you need even Before you go to the store! Bathroom shelves stocked! And we used the laundry more than I thought we would - everything provided! We also really appreciated the ziplock bags & to-go cups with lids - we packed snacks for our rides and hikes, and took coffee to Cadillac sunrise! It made everything just so much easier on me!!! My daughter and I read the Welcome notebook front to back and even took a pic of the restaurant list - and we used so many of your tips/suggestions! If you are planning to go to Bar Harbor - THIS is the place to stay.
Cannot beat the location. Walking distance to everything in Bar Harbor. The Physician's Flat was very clean and incredibly well stocked with supplies throughout.
