About this property

Spacious in-town cottage w/home office. Walk everywhere from your front steps.

Spindrift Cottage is located on a quiet side street in downtown Bar Harbor. Recently remodeled with careful attention to detail, this Victorian home will welcome you and offer a place to relax and unwind while you enjoy all the beauty of Acadia National Park and Bar Harbor village.

Traveling with a young family? You will appreciate the children's books and toys, gate at the top of the stairs and sandbox on the back deck.

Need to take your work with you? Spread out in the large, dedicated office space with two desks, plenty of shelves and high-speed wireless internet to keep you connected.

Flat screen TVs, DVD player, cable television, and a variety of games and books are available for those times when you prefer to stay home.

A fully stocked kitchen makes it easy for you to prepare a meal and the large dining room is great for entertaining and sharing special moments. Plenty of outdoor seating is provided on the private patio area for those nice days that beg to be enjoyed outdoors.

After a day of adventure in the park, relax in the luxurious soaking tub. All the towels and soaps and hairdryers are available for you.

We want you to be comfortable and fully enjoy your stay and love Bar Harbor as much as we do. The property manager is nearby and happy to assist with making your time here delightful.

Bar Harbor

Fabulous house; clean, quiet and very comfortable. Can walk to the harbor and see sunset and sunrise. Walk to Bar Island Path, grocery store, cute shops and restaurants. Acadia National Park is a short ride way. Can hike the south and north Bubbles, ride or hike up Cadillac Mountain, many hiking trails, visit Sand Beach, eat at Lobster Pound. Wonderful place. Would definitely stay here again.

Bar Harbor House - supreme location

The house was spotlessly clean and had everything we needed and more. The proximity to Acadia was supreme. It was an easy walk to the grocery store, bike rental shops, the explorer bus and to Bar Harbor shops. A fun place for a getaway with friends.

Perfect Location

We loved the house and proximity to both town and Acadia. The grocery is around the corner with reasonable prices. There are 2 bakeries and a french restaurant very close by and are delicious. The town green and the Harbor areas are a 5 min walk. We were traveling with myself and husband and 4 20’s kids and the house fit us perfectly.
