Summary: We had a wonderful stay at Schooners Edge! The house was spacious, comfortable and clean. We were pleasantly surprised at the bathroom renovations that we weren't expecting. The best part was the view of the ocean, access to Acadia Park and Bar Harbor in addition to the beautifully maintained yard that included lots of privacy. Check-in was seamless and the kitchen was well stocked. My family had a wonderful time!
