Mount Desert ME
10/10 Exceptional! (66 reviews)
"Our family of 6 adults and 3 little ones had a wonderful time at the Mount Desert House. The great room upstairs was perfect for us to all hang out. The beds were comfortable and the place was nicely decorated. There are a lot of stairs but we were fine with that and there was a gate for the children. ..."
