Cozy little cottage
Cozy little cottage on the lake! We greatly enjoyed our home away from home. It is tiny but it was just what we needing in a landing pad for our day hiking trips in beautiful Acadia. There were some plumbing issues while we were staying there, but Peter got right on fixing it.

Great location
Host communicated with us throughout the visit. Enjoyed the location. Only complaint would be the shower head. A new one would do wonders.

Great rustic cabin overlooking Frenchman’s Bay
Loved the cabin - it was perfect for our family. We were happy to be out of town and on the water, beds were comfy and the cabin clean. Had enough pots and pans, utensils to cook meals.

Family summer vacation
This was the first time we visited Maine, and Maine did not disappoint. Spruce met all our needs and Peter was the perfect host. He was quick to answer all my questions/ texts as well as fix the outside deck light. The house had everything we needed to make our own meals and hang out at night playing cards. Also having a house on the beach was a great way to spend time fishing or walking or just sitting Spruce is in the perfect location to Bar Harbor, Acadia, National Park, as well as the surrounding areas. We loved our dinners from Mainely barbecue, as well as Sweet Peas. C-Rays lobster was the best around. I highly recommend Spruce to anybody visiting the Bar Harbor area and wanting to wake up every morning to hear the ocean waves on the beach. I am sure we will return one day and hope to stay at Spruce again. Thanks Peter and team for ensuring a wonderful vacation.

Perfect Pre-Graduation Rustication
Spruce Chalet was everything we needed it to be, while spending a brief period of down time with our son between his final exams and college graduation from RPI, as he enjoyed hiking familiar trails from past vacations. The cabin was just as described, cozy, comfortable, and clean, the consummately perfect place to rusticate on Mount Desert Isle. Take a book, enjoy the views, and make the most of one of the best National Parks in the eastern United States. Thanks to Peter for his exceptional communication.

Rustic cabin with beautiful views surrounded by woods
Peter was such a kind host. We had a wonderful stay in his clean, rustic cabin. The seaviews were beautiful. It is located high above the beach, where you can explore interesting tidepools and collect the most delicious fresh mussels for dinner. The kitchen was well equipped for gourmet cooking. The beds very comfortable with skylights above, where you can see a million stars at night! It is six miles from downtown Bar Harbor and close to all parts of Acadia National Park. The cabin has a rustic charm. The bathroom is basic, but there is a good supply of hot water. There is a firepit in the woods right outside. We will definitely stay in this lovely cabin again!

Modest cabin with good location
The spruce chalet is a modest, rustic cabin in a great location on the water, near Acadia. The doors to bedrooms and bathrooms do not provide full privacy, as they do not close well and have gaps. Mattresses in room with bunks were very uncomfortable. The cabin was dark and needed additional lighting-difficult to even play cards in the evening. No heat in bedrooms (chilly at night) and cabin seemed to lack insulation. Only had two rolls of toilet paper for a week stay. Location allows for convenient tide pooling opportunities. Overall, great location, but cabin was not as nice as expected.

Beautiful stay
Beautiful property with water views and convenient to Bar Harbor and Acadia. We thought it was perfect for two but could also comfortably fit a family of 4-5. Peter was responsive and provided many useful recommendations to make our stay more enjoyable. Kitchen is well equipped. We would certainly stay again when in the area.
