Bar Harbor and Acadia National Park, on Mount Desert Island, are among the most popular vacation destinations in the country. These vacation rental cottages are all within close proximity to everything the area has to offer.
With the beautiful mountains, inspiring seacoast, friendly communities, and glorious seasonal weather, there are activities for everyone to enjoy. Carriage roads throughout the Park provide wonderful walking and picnic areas. Our "desert of mountains" provide excellent hiking trails. The surrounding ocean provides whale watch tours, fishing trips, canoeing/kayaking, sailing, swimming, beaching, and of course, the best seafood in the world. Our many lakes are ideal locations for a refreshing swim, canoeing, windsurfing, and fresh water fishing. Several local golf courses, public tennis courts, a zoo and oceanarium, amusement parks, tours, and bicycling will provide visitors with plenty of leisure activity. And the quaint towns, like Bar Harbor, Northeast Harbor, Southwest Harbor, Hancock, and Trenton provide wonderful dining, shopping, and local color.
