Acadia vacation

The property was nice and comfortable. We enjoyed the fact that it was away from the crowds, but close enough to all the sites that we wanted to get to. Enjoyed our time!

We had a fantastic stay at Franca's Place. Check in/out were very easy. The property is perfect for anyone seeking a peaceful, quiet vacation spot with only a short drive to Acadia/Bar Harbor. Short drive/walk to beautiful sunset on the Narrows. The owners are very responsive and they checked in periodically to see how our stay was going, which was very nice. Would stay again.

Perfect little cottage

We had a lovely and peaceful stay at Franca's Place. It was clean and beautiful. On the quiet side of the island was great for us and still a easy and quick drive to all the activities and food the Island and park had to offer. We loved staying there! My kids started calling it "home".

perfect place to enjoy Acadia area

We enjoyed the quietside and easy access to Bar Harbor and especially all the Acadia National Park activities. The owner reached out about a concern at the house and we hadn't even really been bothered about it. The house is just right for all we needed and especially for activities we planned. Thank you!

Franca's Place

This was a fabulous place to stay and the cottage was well equipped. The owner's were responsive to questions and the caretakers took care of one of the questions we had immediately. It did help that we had fabulous weather the week that we were there. We totally enjoyed being on the quiet side of the island and it was easy to get anywhere we wanted to go. Anytime that I want to vacation in MDI I would hope that this cottage would be available.

First trip to Maine!

Gigi (grandma) chose Acadia as the destination for her 70th birthday. After much research we chose to stay here. It’s 25 mins from Bar Harbor in the quiet side of the island. The cottage was perfect for our stay and the communication was excellent. I wish we could have stayed longer. It’s a fabulous way to see the island. I can’t recommend this place enough.

Wonderful

Franca’s was perfect for us. Plenty of space for our family. 2 parents and children ages 20 and 17. Loved being a little away from all the visitors on the other side of the island. Yet a convenient drive to get everywhere on the island and to use the island explorer. It was cozy and comfortable. We loved it here!

We enjoyed our stay very much. Good location and house was roomy enough for our family. Only complaint was that upstairs shower leaked into downstairs bathroom ceiling. So it couldn't be used. Reported it to property manager. Overall good experience.

Great stay at MDI

We had a great time at Franca’s Cottage. The weather was great so we didn’t need to use the a/c. The wifi is slower than most maybe used and connectivity on the whole island is spotty. This location is easily accessible to Bar Harbor and Acadia as well as the Bass Harbor lighthouse. It has all the necessary kitchen and bathroom items. Some parts of the home had a musty odor probably due to its age.

comfortable cottage

The place was comfortable and includes a well functioning kitchen. The bedroom off the kitchen is smaller than I expected. But still roomy enough for a couple. I was surprised to be asked to strip the beds and start laundry before we left. I never had a property owner request that before. But we did it. Overall, no real complaints.

You get what you pay for

Poorly maintained property. Very few windows had curtains/shades. Lots of gnats, mosquitos, and spiders. Pillows worn out. Mold/mildew in room off of the kitchen. Tiny, poorly designed bathrooms. Cabin manual was mostly out of date. Conflicting check-in instructions. No comfortable furniture. I would not choose it again.

Sorry to hear you did not enjoy your visit. The cabin is professionally cleaned between visits. We will certainly do our best to address the other concerns.

Gut: Check-in, Kommunikation, Lage und Genauigkeit des Onlineauftritts
We stayed here for a week & couldn't wait to check out. I don’t understand where all the great reviews come from. I have asthma and had a hard time with all the musty, moldy smells. I had no idea the place was so old. The main room (living room) was built prior to 1820 when Maine was still part of Massachusetts. It needs a good cleaning. The main parts of the floors, bathrooms, & kitchen were clean but living room had cobwebs & spiders along the walls & near furniture. The upstairs is unusable unless you’re a small kid (stairs steep & shallow). Out of the 2 bathrooms on the main floor, the main bedroom bathroom is really the best usable one. The other is narrow wall leading to sink & like getting ready in a phone booth. There wasn’t a comfortable to sit, sleep. All the beds are horrible, sofa, & even kitchen chairs are very uncomfortable. The best thing was the kitchen with newer appliances & lots a counter space. Another good thing is staying in a quiet area vs the zoo near Bar Harbor. It’s so much cheaper than almost anywhere else but you won’t be happy there unless you like roughing it & cabin life. The entire place needs a good cleaning along with the exterior that was full of cobwebs. It has possibilities but needs some furniture upgrades & cleaning.

Great potential

First, the communication with the owner is great. She is very responsive and checked in once during our stay to ask if we needed anything. We enjoyed the ducks wandering around the house in the rain and the deer visiting. The property itself is lovely. The historic part of the house is lovely. However, that was overshadowed by a sofa that has seen better days and is in need of a clean slipcover. Sitting on stained fabric is not a joy. Heat was provided by a small low wall-mounted electric unit which aimed directly at the side of the sofa and was therefore not terribly efficient. Otherwise, portable space heaters were provided. Wiring throughout was a little questionable (holes for wall sockets and outlet covers were too big and left gaps, one of which was covered with what appeared to be packing tape. The kitchen is adequately equipped and we appreciated the dedicated electric water kettle. The wifi was good and appreciated. Because we had several days/nights of rain, we tried the dvd/vhs player with the old tube tv. After hooking them up, the dvd player would not recognize the dvds. The wifi came in handy as we could stream a movie on our computer. The location on the island is great, we usually stay in that vicinity. But be prepared for significant traffic noise pre-dawn, especially trucks. Overall we enjoyed our stay. This house has huge potential and with some significant upgrading would easily rate five stars.

The home and the furnishings are old and dated in many ways, that said the kitchen was clean and appointed with such that we cooked meals easily. The master bathroom was clean and functional, good water pressure etc. The beds were comfortable and fine. Near Seal Cove picnic area and easy to SW Harbor.Detractors for us were upon arrival the mildew odor was pervasive partly due to a couch that truly needs to go. The house sits directly on a busy road that has traffic early as folks are going to work or to Acadia early. Those cars woke us each morning as they travel 45-60mph. Same in the evening. The picnic table area is 20 feet from this road thus not relaxing. The deposit was larger than cost of our 7 day visit.

This was a very nice cottage to stay in while exploring Acadia national park. My family very much enjoyed the quiet setting while still being close to the park, trails, lakes, and other attractions. We felt this place was a great value for the area, and there was plenty of space for all four of us to stay comfortably.
