A beautiful and serene place. The sunrise and sunsets are amazing (from the house!) 10 minute drive to bar harbor and Acadia. Super clean and tidy and has everything needed to make a variety of meals. A real home away from home! We hiked, kayaked, and enjoyed a live production at the Acadia Rep Theatre.

Wonderful retreat

July 1, 2025

​We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Baycliff. The peaceful setting on Frenchman Bay was the perfect place to relax, with plenty of birds and sea life to keep us entertained. Kevin was a wonderful host—friendly, attentive, and quick to respond to any questions. We truly loved our week there and hope to return!

Wonderful getaway!

June 24, 2025

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Baycliff, being 2 adults & 2 18 y/o 'kids'. The view is truly mesmerizing, one of the best on MDI ! Super clean. Well appointed, they thought of everything you might need. The building and furnishings are in excellent condition. Owner is helpful and highly responsive to questions. This is a comfortable, cozy cottage. The rooms are small, but some big windows, skylights and high ceilings help it feel spacious. The wifi connections were solid and fast. We were able to 'work from home' when required, from the lower level space, with clear uninterrupted zoom and remote desktop connections. When not working or out in the park playing, we were able to stream music or netflix without any issues. As described, the other cottages on site share the waters-edge deck occasionally, so it is not completely private but there is enough distance between to be comfortable. The only possible improvement might be a sliding insulated window (instead of folding doors) between lower bedroom & living room for increased sound separation for those on different sleep schedules (ie teenagers vs middle agers...), although enjoying the amazing view from all rooms was appreciated. We enjoyed watching the abundant wildlife, and making friends with the chippies. We enjoyed the historic photos, clearly this property has been beloved by generations - and for good reason. All in all, a great find. We look forward to returning!

Best family vacation ever!

June 8, 2025

Baycliff has everything you could possibly want in a vacation home. The view is spectacular. The location is convenient to everything you would want to do in Bar Harbor and Acadia. The owner, Kevin, communicates very well and gives great tips. The house has everything you will need. Our family stayed a week and loved every minute of our stay. After exploring and seeing the beauty of the area you get to come back to the house and enjoy the beautiful view. We hope to be able to go back some day! Thank you Kevin.

Thanksgiving 2024

December 3, 2024

Beautiful house with an amazing view of the water! We saw lots of birds and a seal swimming by. The beds were very comfortable and the whole house was a cozy space to have Thanksgiving. We will definitely be back again. Kevin was very helpful and super responsive.

Perfect fall getaway

Baycliff was perfect for a relaxing vacation. The sunrises were breathtaking, the house had everything we could need, and it was a nice retreat from the Acadia crowds. Kevin was a great host, and we hope to visit again!

First Trip to Maine

October 15, 2024

We enjoyed staying at Baycliff for our family vacation to Maine for the first time. It was conveniently located close to downtown Bar Harbor and Acadia National park. We were lucky to have been able to see the northern lights, seals, and a double rainbow off the back deck. Very clean and nice property we would love to come back again.
