Kid-friendly vacation rentals in Southwest Harbor

Excellent and charming place to get away from the bustle of the city life. Great hosts that took care of every preparation and concern. Would visit again!

We cannot say enough wonderful things about this lovely property. Lee and Charlie were so fantastic to work with, and the home was spacious, fully stocked and beautifully decorated. We would definitely come back and highly recommend it! Communication was terrific!

We came to Bar Harbor for the MDI Marathon, and this ended up the perfect location, just two blocks from the start line. Price-wise it was comparable to any hotels for the four of us and the full kitchen helped us save some time and money by prepping most of our own meals. Having laundry was a huge plus for a longer stay and being able to pack less. Everything was well-maintained and Sara gave us great info and local recommendations before our stay. Would definitely recommend!

Great place in Owls Head! Very convenient for a family.

This was the perfect rental for our family of 4 for the thanksgiving holiday. The home had everything we needed and wanted, great location within walking distance of so many great places in Rockland, and was clean and comfortable. Alicia went out of her way to provide recommendations for our stay! This is probably the best Airbnb we’ve stayed at and the most helpful host we’ve encountered. Highly recommend and thank you to Alicia and family for making our week so enjoyable while spending time with our kids on their college break.

Our family (2 adults, 3 kids) stayed here for a week at Christmas and it was a lovely place. It was not only very comfortable and had everything we needed, but was also extremely well kept and clean. It is a convenient location that is easily walkable to the grocery store (even in a snow storm!) and everything else in Bar Harbor, too. If you have kids, it is also just down the street from a nice local playground. Would be a great location for a family or group at any time of the year.

"From my daughter: This is our 3rd trip to Acadia National Park, but the first time at this Air B&b. Originally it was supposed to be for 5 of us, but 3 couldn't make it, so it ended up just being my husband and I. The Air B&b is in a remote enough area that it is nice and peaceful, but still an easy 20-30 minute drive to almost anywhere on Mt. desert island. The house has so many thoughtful touches, like an area outside for a campfire, supplies for smores, basic seasoning and condiments, all the light switches labeled (so thankful for that!), etc. We did a grocery run our first day and came back to the house for almost all our meals. This was a cozy place and we'd recommend to anyone visiting Mt. Desert Island and would return here again if we come back in the future."

lovely family home. Had every thing you would need. rules are explicit. it may be helpful to know that the one bathroom is on the second floor.Although family is not in the area, they were responsive in a short period of time. I would not hesitate to stay here again.

We very much enjoyed our stay at Shawn’s place. The location was great and we would definitely stay there again. The delicious welcome gift of baked goods and coffee was very thoughtful and appreciated.

Would recommend to friends and family

Our stay was fantastic. The place was clean and laid out nicely. It was also close enough and an easy drive to Acadia National Park. Highly recommend, and I would definitely come back and stay here again!

This cozy 2nd floor apartment was in a great location. Was walkable right to downtown with many shops and restaurants available. It was so quiet I couldn’t believe it. The only noises we heard were car doors shutting. Very peaceful location. The kitchen had all the amenities we needed. We enjoyed playing some board games. We found the futon in the living room very uncomfortable to sit on. It rained most of our stay so we were inside more than we had hoped. We also found the bed to be very very soft and dipped in the middle. A very nice stay otherwise and the location cannot be beat.

Absolutely beautiful area. Cute place with a lovely back yard. Nicole was very responsive and very helpful we loved our weekend away and I got to meet their pup! Would definitely stay again and may in the near future. It was everything you could ever need and more!

We had a wonderful family staycation! We enjoyed the ability to unplug, without the distraction of a tv in the space we played lots of games. The location is great with quaint shops and various restaurants all within walking distance. Diane was an excellent host! I would definitely stay here again.

Absolutely amazing, the place was beautiful and exactly as described. Looking out the windows we got a really nice view of the river and the city all at once.

Perfect location for a short visit to see my mom. Apartment was cozy and comfortable, and Blue Hill being nearby for groceries and restaurants was very handy. If you are planning a trip to the area you should check this place out.

Thoroughly enjoyed my two-week stay. Great location with quick and easy access to Belfast, Lincolnville, Camden and Rockport. On a private road for a very quiet, peaceful stay. Clean, comfortable and very well provisioned. I was even able to bake cookies for my daughter and son-in-law!

Love this Condo. Superb location in Blue Hill Village, easily walkable to everything downtown. Modern and updated making it very comfortable. Well equipped with cleaning/cooking supplies so you can "live normally". The hosts are super responsive and helpful as well. Highly recommended.

We were very happy start to finish. The location was just so unique and incredible. Right on a working marina, but very quiet. Plenty to see and do nearby. Walk across the pier and buy live lobsters. Christie was extremely helpful and quick to respond when asked. Condo was very well done with plenty of touches to make it homey. A good value! If we come back to Maine, we’ll call her first.

Jo Dee was a wonderful host . She had great information on how to access the trails at Acadia and avoid the crowds at Bar Harbor. I highly recommend this airbnb and a visit to this area will not disappoint.

BEAUTIFUL landscape directly on a lake with access to fishing poles, kayaks, and canoes, we felt like we didn’t need to leave the property at all. Perfect location to visit Acadia and near by towns. I wish we could have stayed for twice as long. The condo itself seems to be brand new! The beds were comfortable and the decorations and big screen tv were a nice touch. We spent hours on the dock and in the lake (kayaks). Cannot wait to return to this slice of heaven.

This is the second time we've stayed at this spot - we enjoyed it so much that we went back for more! We really enjoy the location just on the edge of town - quiet and easy walking distance from everything. The home is lovely and Brian is a wonderful host. We'd stay again - and probably will!

What a beautiful location and house. There’s nothing better than sitting in the living room or front porch and being able to see the Belfast Bay. The house is very clean and neat. Beds are comfortable, shower is very hot. Don’t miss the sunrise in the mornings. Overall this is one of our favorite places we have stayed in Belfast.

It was a great place! Very close to the restaurants in town! Very clean, safe, and exactly as pictured.
