Otter Creek Acadia House

Our calendar is updated in real-time & our nightly rates are accurately displayed. Simply enter your desired dates and click 'Book Now!'

Find a bright, airy retreat in the midst of Acadia National Park at this 3-bedroom Mount Desert home, a family-friendly escape with a sunny deck and an outstanding location for hikers, kayakers, cyclists, and outdoor enthusiasts!

You'll find this home in the small community of Otter Creek, which is bordered on all sides by Acadia's serene landscapes. Get up before dawn to catch the sunrise on the Cadillac Mountain South Ridge Trail down the road, hop on the nearby Park Loop Road to see Acadia's highlights, and sit down for a wonderful dinner or two in downtown Bar Harbor five miles north.

The living space was seemingly designed for a family, offering casual, comfortable furnishings, and free WiFi. Begin each morning with coffee and breakfast in the kitchen (with a dishwasher), and spend the day hiking the Ocean Path or whale-watching off the coast. Come home to enjoy dinner on the deck, and retire inside for a night of board games and movies on the two flatscreen TVs.

Come and discover one of Maine's most majestic landscapes!

Great location, lots of potential, needs better cleaning, and updates.

Stove was greasy, pink mold inside the 5 dehumidifiers, grass needed mowed, 100s of dead ants in game room/garage that could easily be swept up, cobwebs in windows. Emptying 5 dehumidifiers that filled up in less than 24 hours got old quick! Not really what I thought I was paying for. This house is in great location and has a lot of potential but needs a good clean, some updates, and some kind of solution to the mugginess on the lower floor that doesn’t require vacationers to empty 5 dehumidifiers at least once daily.

Surrounded by the Park!

Really nice house and kitchen. Andy the location is great. You can quickly go to Bar Harbor, or you can avoid it altogether if you want. Easy access to trails, the Loop Road, Cadillac Mountain, etc. We got a reservation and then drove to the summit of Cadillac Mountain in significantly less than an hour. As a bonus, my youngest son (19) and I saw a young Buck as we were loading the car to leave. We just stared at the Buck for about a minute as a guess. Then it turned and left, its' hooves completely silent as it seemed to float away.

Do not stay here.

They were toadstools growing on the floor of one of the bathrooms when we arrive. One night we were flooded in the basement by rain and had to leave.

Just ok

The back deck was great for hosting lots of people and so was the kitchen table. Comfortable beds and pillows. Plenty of room for parking. Unfortunately not well stocked. 2 rolls of toilet paper for 10 people 5 days is not going to cut it. Also only 4 towels, no trash bags or sponge in the kitchen. Took 2 days to get the supplies needed from vacasa.

Great house well designed and managed but requires few upgrades

We stayed for five days. It is good for 11 people. Rooms are fair sized. There were only two bathrooms. The house needs an additional powder room at least . Shower spaces were really small. There was moldy smell in the downstairs bedrooms. Upstairs bedroom may need a ceiling fan. Cleaning staff needs to do a better job. Loved the deck siting area and premium grill. Overall our experience was great!
