Acadia Adventure
Review Submitted: May 23, 2009
Date of Stay: August 2008
I had stayed on this side of the Island before, but never in an area that gave me the freedom to just come and go at will, be at peace with the environment, and feel completely trusted by the owners. I rented the house to be able to hike all over the island, and being close to Seal Cove offered me the opportunity to find new trails--wonderful new trails that were great fun, like Bernard Mountain with its fern gullies and remarkable beauty. Being close to Southwest Harbor that has an excellent wine and cheese shop was good, too. The house is large enough for a family, and very well kept with all the equipment you need. My husband doesn't care to hike as much as I do, so he would stay behind and write and he found it the perfect atmosphere to do so--he finished a couple of white papers during our week stay. He is also an amateur photographer and having the house meant that he could bring all his equipment and store it in the house. I thought the house was perfect and want to rent it again! -Judi PS If you're a hiker, you must, must do the Perpendicular Trail--it's been renovated and is phenomenal!
