Oceanfront Prospect Harbor House w/ Deck, View

Reviews

• Even better than the pictures!

  5/5

  We have stayed at a number of VRBO properties and have almost always had a great experience, but I have to say that this is the first time that the property dramatically exceeded our expectations. Although the property looks good in the photos, they do not do it justice- experiencing the rise and fall of the tides on a daily basis, and being able to sleep with the windows open and the sound of gentle waves lapping against the shore was just what we needed. The owners were helpful and responsive, and the property was clean and well-maintained.

  From the owner: " Jason, we appreciate your wonderful review. It is our pleasure to share our “Serenity by the Sea”. We chose the name because exactly what you said, listening to the waves at night certainly lulls you to sleep! Thanks again. See you next time!

  This was the perfect place to stay on our family vacation to Maine! My 2 and 4 year old slept great in this quiet getaway. The pack and play provided was especially convenient for my youngest.

• Coastal, gorgeous, modern stay!

  5/5

  I have stayed at many, many rental properties, and this is absolutely one of the best for so many reasons! On two of the five days we had here, we didn’t even leave the property (by choice!). The house itself is modern, looks impeccable, and is well styled and designed. We chose to stay here for our relaxing, coastal Maine getaway rather than Bar Harbor because while we did want to spend one day in Acadia NP (a very easy 1 hour drive), we were craving more of a quaint town, private setting experience and Bar Harbor was insanely touristy and busy. This place is the vibe we wanted. There are a couple awesome, hole in the wall restaurants with amazing lobster, lobster rolls, drinks, and blueberry desserts that more than satisfied our quest for a great foodie experience with a local feel. The house is also right off the Acadia NP Schoodic Loop Road, which ended up being our favorite part of the park instead of the more crowded MDI loop! Such a great day spent exploring this peninsula. The view from the backyard and listening to the waves and exploring the rocky coast at low tide were exactly what we were hoping for. If you’re looking for an authentic, relaxing, gorgeous Maine experience that you don’t want to share with thousands of other tourists, do yourself a favor and book this place immediately! 10/10.

  Beautiful views. Clean and had everything we needed. We enjoyed this rural cottage. It was away from all the busy hubbub of Bar Harbor yet only a little over an hour’s drive to visit there. Had everything we needed to cook meals.

• Beautiful Home / Peaceful Location

  5/5

  This is a beautiful home, new, modern and clean. All of the high end finishes make it feel very special. Kitchen is equipped with everything you could possibly need to prepare meals. The open floor plan kitchen / living room area has lots of big windows to enjoy the amazing view. We loved having the gas fireplace to use on chilly nights.

  Debby and John have thought of everything. Communication was fast and helpful. Debby was in touch before we arrived, providing information on arrival, groceries etc

  The outside has a wonderful deck with dining table and lounge chairs.

  The yard has an amazing fire pit surrounded by Adirondack chairs that look out on the most incredible view.
