12 Bedroom House in Bar Harbor

Sol’s Cliff House is an historic mansion just south of Bar Harbor, Maine, overlooking Frenchman Bay. Nestled into twelve private acres of pine and fir, this Mount Desert Island rental delivers what we think is the most magnificent view on an island of incredible views. Our step-grandfather, New York lawyer-novelist Arthur Train, commissioned the house to be built by Boston architect George Shepard in 1914, making it one of the last surviving “summer cottages” of Bar Harbor’s gilded-era golden age. It barely survived the great fire of 1947. Large ground-floor rooms connect by double doors and a great front hall. The entire east side overlooking the bay is lined with double French doors opening onto a brick terrace, affording wonderful views east across Frenchman Bay and the Porcupine Islands to the mainland and south to Egg Rock light house and the Atlantic Ocean beyond. To stay at Sol’s Cliff House is to step back in time to an era of long family summers, house parties, vigorous exercise, domestic culture-and a note of extravagance. Enjoy this special place where Acadia meets Frenchman Bay, relax in the rhythm of lobstermen making their rounds (plus the occasional cruise ship passing in the distance), and rejuvenate where the mountain and sea air mingle.

Summary: We were very relaxed and enjoyed our vacation at this home. The house is huge and could accomodate several families. The Views are spectacular. The hjouse is over 100 years old and is kept in near original condition so don't expect 21st century amenities. However the lack of new VRBO-expected accomodations are what made our stay even more relaxed. With so much to do in Acadia - we hiked and kayaked veryday, having a place to unwind or take a smlow morning with coffee was perfect. Only problem was you want to hang out looking at the view more than hiking. Great place
