Beech Hill Haven is centrally located on Mount Desert Island, with Acadia National Park at your doorstep. There is so much to see and do here, depending on your interests. Take a hike, or ride your bike on the many carriage roads, with a stop at Jordan Pond House for popovers on the lawn. Or rent a canoe or kayak, go birdwatching, fishing, or swimming, sit on some rocks and watch the waves at high tide, take a ranger led walk or boat ride to one of the nearby islands, go to one of the lovely nearby gardens, or play golf. Of course, Bar Harbor, Southwest Harbor, and Northeast Harbor are just minutes away, with lots of shops and restaurants to explore. A fresh Maine lobster is always a delicious vacation treat. It’s also great to relax at the house with a good book or video, put your feet up, and watch the wildlife that stops by.

The BEST vacation rental in Maine!!

Morgan/Susie Indianapolis, IN
Review Submitted: November 12, 2008 Date of Stay: September 2008
This home is every bit as well-furnished, attractive and comfortable as the pictures and information indicate. The cabin is beautifully situated, very near to Bar Harbor, Acadia and other interesting areas. There are several great restaurants of every sort within a short drive or ride.
The owner was a joy to work with. She provided an informational packet that covered every question and every detail of the property and its ammenities. She was very warm and open, and her pride in her property is obvious in the care she takes to make sure the rental is without any concerns or problems.
The kitchen, the bedrooms, the spacious living area, bathrooms, laundry, garage and the deck (with grill!) hold everything necessary to make the time there carefree and effortless. This was, by far, the best rental property experience we have ever had.

I would recommend this property to anyone considering vacationing in this area of Maine.

Wonderful

Acadia lover Bethesda
Review Submitted: August 27, 2009 Date of Stay: July 2009
We just returned from a wonderful two weeks in this ideal home. We were a family of six: two grandparents, one parent, and three children, ages 4,7, and 10. The space was perfect and it was amazing that this home was loaded with everything we could possibly want--two coffee pots, two lobster pots...even a waffle iron (haven't had waffles in years). The video, game, and toy library was amazing; all the children found age-appropriate items to entertain themselves.

The cottaage's location was also perfect for us since we have friends in Southwest and Bar Harbor. It provides easy access to all the park's trails and facilities as well as being close to a grocery store.

There was only one problem: no hot water when we arrived. The owner was quick to respond and although the issue became complicated, the owner and service personnel did everything possible to correct the situation as quickly as possible.

Hope we can go back soon.
