Summary: This was a lovely experience for our adult family reunion. The location was ideal for access to Acadia and Bar Harbor. The home is a grand mansion of the 30's, well maintained, with plenty of room to spread out. We especially enjoyed evenings by the fire pit over looking the harbor. We would definitely return.
