About this property

La Maisonette - Historic Renovated 6 BR Downtown Bar Harbor Home

''''La Maisonette'', circa 1886, is a beautiful 3,400 square foot, 6 bedroom home in downtown Bar Harbor nestled within Bar Harbor?s national historic district with a view of Frenchman's Bay and a beautiful 1/2 acre back yard.

Located on West Street, you are a short stroll to restaurants, shops, bike and kayaking rentals in the downtown area. Acadia National Park is just minutes away by car or rent a bike and walk to the shuttle in downtown Bar Harbor which will take you into the park to spend a day riding the Carriage Trail.

At low tide, walk around the corner and enjoy the unique experience of crossing a sand bar to Bar Island or simply walk along the sand bar collecting shells and photographing the spectacular views.

With its shingle style architecture, La Maisonette offers charm and character with high ceilings, detailed woodwork, a staircase tower, a solarium and fireplaces.


La Maisonette is fully furnished and offers a wrap around enclosed porch that provides a brief view of the ocean, 6 bedrooms that sleep 12, 3 full and one partial bathroom, WiFi, and HD TV, we believe it offers everything you need to enjoy a wonderful Bar Harbor vacation.

Wonderful Week in a perfect location
Our family of 12 (ages 66 - 2) enjoyed our stay. Perfect location! Short drive to Acadia NP. Walking distance to Bar Harbor restaurants, sand bar, shopping and grocery store. Never needed to deal with parking! House is old, but we knew that when we booked it. Wonderful week.

Great Location. House needs major love.
Location could not be better. Walking distance to grocery store, bike rentals, kayak rentals, restaurants, shuttles, whale watching, tours, etc. The house has pros and cons. On the pro side, the house is roomy. The kitchen is large and well stocked with cookware. There is wifi and a nice foosball table. On the con side, the house is in major need of love. The furniture is old and very dusty and of salvage yard quality. Our group had lots of allergy issues due to dust and mildew in the home. The sleeper sofa on the porch doesn't open because the porch isn't wide enough for it. The bedrooms have a college dorm vibe... Many of the doors in the house do not close or even hold in a closed position. The house has not been professionally maintained as evidenced by a hook and eye necessary to keep one of bathroom doors from swinging open. Trust me that it's not a charming feature. The downstairs bathroom has no way to keep you private, so be sure everyone remembers to knock. The shower curtains are also dorm quality and many of the hooks are pulled out. There is a hodge podge of old chairs in the kitchen which get the job done, but you'll get a flashback to college when you rented a house that the owner had given up on. There is considerable rot on the exterior of the home and some gutters that are held up by a makeshift wooden post. That won't affect your stay, but it gives you an idea of the advanced state of neglect. If that doesn't bother you, you will love it.
