About this property

Serenity place. Relax in a semi rural setting 18 mile from Acadia National Park

Open floor plan, updated, with new floor and trim, new comfortable furniture, gorgeous view. Accomodates four with two bedrooms (1 Queen, 2 twins). Full deck in front and small deck in back. Everything is new. It is in a wooded private location tucked just off a residential area, just a 1/2 mile from beautiful downtown Ellsworth, and just 18 miles from Acadia National Park. There are many vacation destinations nearby. You will have the run of the house. Come and enjoy. This is double wide trailer, about ten years old, but now completely renovated.

The full-size kitchen is fully stocked with eating and cooking utensils. It does not have specialty items such as a double boiler, but it has plenty of basics. We have a coffee maker for pots of coffee and k-cups. [Bring your own coffee]. We have A/C in the main room and fans in the bedroom. Bring or buy bottled water. The well water is potable, but well water does not agree with water your used to in other regions sometimes. The gas fireplace is non-functional for safety and cost issues. The enclosed deck is bi-level and large with chairs and tables. The abundant wildlife, dear, fox, turkeys, etc. are at no extra charge. Enjoy Maine.

Before departing, please:
1. Wash up dishes
2. Place trash in white bags, and place white bags in the trash receptical on the back deck inside the large black bag.
3. Sweep the floor.
4. Placed used towels and sheets in a pile on the bedroom floor. (The floor is vinyl so damp towels wont hurt the floor)
5. Check to see nothing was left.
6. Let me know of any problems.
Safe travels

Wohnung vor Toren von Acadia NP

Die Wohnung ist schön und praktisch eingerichtet. Kein Luxus aber trotzdem gemütlich. Für uns war die Wohnung die Unterkunft für den Acadia NP. Vor Ort haben wir festgestellt, dass es unzählige andere Möglichkeiten zum Übernachten gibt, die nicht in den Buchungsportalen in Europa erhältlich sind und wahrscheinlich direkt gebucht werden. Als wir die Wohnung buchten war das Angebot an Ferienwohnungen bei Fewo, airbnb oder booking recht übersichtlich.

Fall Days in Downeast Maine

A true blessing to enjoy the sights, sounds, and abundance of early fall in Downeast Maine. This comfortable home served as home base for our vacation. It was clean, easily accessible and affordable. Thanks for a great time.

Nice and quiet

We stayed here while visiting Acadia for a few days. House was very clean and furnishings were all modern. Complete, clean kitchen. Surroundings were quiet. Located very convenient to the town of Ellsworth; town was just a few minutes away. We were able to go to Acadia all day and this was a nice home base to return to. Internet and TV worked perfectly, ideal for chilling out after a full day of hiking. Would stay here again or recommend to a friend.

Bar Harbor and Acadia Trip

It was a great stay at Steven's property. The twin beds might need a new mattress/topper, but the master bed room was excellent! It was close to Bar Harbor and Acadia and we had the best meal at Helens Restaurant. Would definitely come again!

Quiet hideaway

We very much enjoyed our stay; basic, clean, great host, near to Acadia National Park, the Maine Coast as well as Bangor. Ellsworth is a neat small town with lots of local non- franchise eateries, LL Bean outlet and even a Wally World (Wal Mart). We would stay there again.

Convenient and clean

We enjoyed our stay and found the property very clean and incredibly convenient to downtown Ellsworth. The only drawbacks are the master bedroom's bed was uncomfortable and the shower has a big step down which you need to be very careful of when getting in and out. Otherwise the home was great and we had a nice time for my niece's graduation!

Schöne Unterkunft

Es hat alles gut geklappt, auch Rückfragen wurden schnell beantwortet. Die Küche war gut und praktisch ausgestattet und wir haben das Frühstück morgens auf der Terrasse in der Sonne genossen. Das Haus liegt wunderbar ruhig in der Natur, aber nahe zum Stadtzentrum. Zum Acadia Nationalpark benötigt man ca 30 Minuten.

Great location and nice place.

This really is a good “home base” for Acadia National Park. Drive isn’t bad and plenty of places to indulge in lobster. The place had everything we needed, was cozy and well kept. Love the extra touch of leaving the Maine blueberry jam! I’m hooked!

About the host

Hosted by Steven Linscott 217-494-0235

Host profile image
I'm a retired psychotherapist, and college professor. I've written two books, one, since retiring, and enjoy travel with my wife and family. My brother and I remodeled the home you are staying in. It has an open floor plan, new flooring and walls, new furniture. I know you will be comfortable and enjoy your adventure from this location.

Why they chose this property

It is close to Acadia, yet far enough away to afford a quiet stay, and enjoy the Maine I remember, with the air filtered by the pines. Don't hesitate if you have time to turn right from Hillside Drive, instead of Left to Acadia, to go to Blue Hill and places to the coast in that direction. It is worth experiencing. This property is centrally located to all of the coastal area in mid-state.

What makes this property unique

We built an exceptionally large deck so that you can relax and enjoy time together.
