We can't say enough nice things about the Sandy Point house.
The outside is beautifully kept. There's a horseshoe game and informal but pretty landscaping.
Inside, everything was immaculate when we arrived. Instructions about the house and what we needed to know was right there and very clear.. The kitchen had everything and was also immaculate. Dishes, pots and pans, silverware like new.
Sleeping arrangements were perfect for our family - my husband and I and our 3 college kids. There's a lot of space for everyone to spread out when we needed our own space,but there's a wonderful communal space for good family time. There are lots of books and games.
The master bed and sheets were super soft and comfy.
It was never terribly hot but the overhead fans were lovely.
Downstairs washer and dryer worked perfectly.
The house is not on the beach, but just a short walk to Sandy Point. We didn't see anyone swimming there and it's not soft sand. But we had some nice long beach walks.
We spent a lot of time in Acadia National Park. It was a bit farther to get there than we'd anticipated, so if you're planning to spend most of your time hiking or being in the park, this may not be your spot.
The owners were super responsive anytime we had a question - there were one or two minor things which were quickly and easily resolved. But the owners couldn't have been nicer. It was an outstanding experience all around.
