If real estate is about location, you'd have to give this site 10 stars instead of the usual 5. You can easily walk anyplace in Bar Harbor from this central location in just minutes. Acadia National Park is a short drive or bike ride away. Cadillac Mountain a few extra minutes with the appropriate permit.
The hosts have done a great job converting this place to a VRBO site while maintaining the charm and harmony with the neighborhood. We used the upstairs which offers 4 bedrooms and 4 separate bathrooms. 2 of the bedrooms have en-suite facilities while the other 2 bedrooms have the bath located just outside the bedroom door.
It was unusually hot and dry for the 1st days of our visit. The living area and 2 bedrooms are well cooled by the living room AC unit. One of the bedrooms has a window AC which also worked quite well. The last bedroom immediately to the left of the stairs can get a little warm, but we were never really uncomfortable.
Having 4 separate bathrooms is a huge plus for separate family groups. The 2 rooms without ensuite bathrooms had fairly modern fixtures. The other room with the AC has a very modern shower, but it can be a bit tight for larger or older people. The bedroom without AC has a roomy shower separate from the a bathroom that features classic plumping fixtures.
The large common room could easily accommodate a very large gathering. The 8 people in our party sometimes seemed lost in all that space. There is another lounging area upstairs from the main area. We did not use that area, but it could easily accommodate another 10 or more people. If your group has a lot of kids, I can see where this would be a great common sleeping area for a bunch of the younger ones. The only caveat is that this area is open to below so noise from one area would likely carry into another area.
The kitchen is well equipped, but we didn't use it much as Bar Harbor offered so many restaurant choices. The kitchen has a small dining table adequate for 4 people. The entry way has the largest dining table I've ever seen - even bigger than the table Vladimir Putin uses to distance himself from guests. We didn't use it, but it could easily host a banquet.
There is a deck outside the kitchen where we preferred to eat the few meals where we ate in. During our stay, one of the neighbors would practice is accordion on his back porch. Quite pleasant actually.
You won't regret staying here.
