Excellent Condo in Southwest Harbor

My wife, daughter and I stayed at the "On Island Time" condo the week before July 4th. The condo was very nice, roomy and most importantly extremely clean (probably the cleanest VRBO we've ever stay in). All the furniture was nice and the decor was enough to give the vacation condo vibe, without being "too much" and nothing I had to worry about my daughter messing with or breaking, which is nice. The apartment doesn't have AC, but it has plenty of fans and windows on all sides, so it is pretty easy to cool off. Bedding, furniture, bathroom were all nice and in good condition. The full size washer and dryer were very nice to have after a week of hiking. We cooked a couple of times and found the kitchen was pretty well stocked with the needed cookware, but has basically no storage containers, so beware if you plan on having leftovers. The range was pretty anemic, much less powerful than my electric range at home and a few more ice trays would've been nice. The owners always responded to me very quickly before I checked in. I had no need to contact them after I arrived. Southwest Harbor is a pretty sleepy town, but this condo has the best location within town I could imagine. Easy walk to everything, and I had no noise issues. I was able to walk across the street to watch the July 4th fireworks. Also, very easy and spacious parking right in front of the door. I would book this condo again in a heartbeat.

Great place! As described on listing.

Great place in little town of southwest harbor. With an infant, it was a little out of the way to bar harbor and Acadia, but nice to be on quiet side of island!

Wonderful

My family wanted to see Acadia National Park, so I initially started looking at hotels in Bar Harbor. All of those options were insanely over-priced, so we looked to VRBO for nearby properties. I was pleasantly surprised when I stumbled upon this property in Southwest Harbor. The unit was clean, had a separate bedroom for our teenager, and was located within walking distance to restaurants and shops. We had a great time, and would absolutely come back.

Fantastic Location

This was a wonderful “home” for 3 nights! After exploring Acadia all day coming back to this apartment was so nice. You can walk to the restaurants and shops in Southwest Harbor and even to the great little market for food and wine. Great to have a washer and dryer also! Only 2 small complaints: The gray towels seem to “shed” lint or the washer got lint on us/clothes. Also, some kind of outdoor area would have been soooo appreciated to sit and have a glass of wine. This would be impossible to add, but just thought future renters should be aware that there is no outdoor area.

Great location and Great Stay

Our stay at "On Island Time" was wonderful. From the nice touches in the decor to the convenient location in Southwest Harbor we were impressed. Upon our arrival was a small box of goodies from Shawn and Brian's store (Milagro Coffee and Espresso). I highly recommend visiting the coffee shop even if you do not stay in this particular VRBO. The accommodations were clean and well stocked. Being located on the other side of Mt. Desert Island allowed us to be away from the craziness of Bar Harbor and enjoy a relaxing time. This place was exactly what we were looking for.
