Vacation rentals with a fire pit in Franklin

Harmon Homestead was a comfortable 3-bedroom home, with a stream and small bay across the road. The home matched the description, located on a quiet dead-end walkable dirt road. The 4 beds were all very comfortable and extra towels and linens were plentiful. If you're a bird watcher, you'll enjoy seeing the many kinds of water birds and raptors outside the windows facing the stream. We spent most of our time in the dining room, which has a wooden table for meals and game-playing and has the best windows for viewing the birds. Mount Desert Island/Bar Harbor/Acadia National Park is an easy 40-minute drive away. We ate out more often than we had planned, since we wanted to sight-see, but when we ate in, we found the kitchen had plenty of dishes, cookware, and cutlery. Blueberry Hill Ice Cream in Ellsworth is worth going into town for a cold after-dinner treat!

The location of the house was perfect for our visit to Acadia. It was very quiet and serene with beautiful views of the lake. We enjoyed fishing off the dock and the fire pit at night. We highly recommended this hidden little gem.

We stayed at this place for a weekend! Family of 4! Everything was great! Very peaceful surroundings! Quite, private and gorgeous. We enjoyed kayaking, I managed to cut white perch from the ramp, used grill once. Place looks new and welcoming. I wish we had more time to spend at the house. Bar Harbor/Acadia/Sand Beach is less then an hour away, easy access with no traffic. Meghan was very responsive! Our flight was not until 6pm and she allowed for a late check out. Book this place with no doubt, you will not regret. Will comfortably accommodate a family of 5.

Lovely cabin right on the lake. Very homey vibe Everything you need to cook is in the kitchen. It was a chilly week, so we utilized the wood stove. Only 1 thing to note is that washer/dryer is listed but not on the premises. Overall, great stay.

The space was clean, cozy, and exactly as described. in the listing. Check In was easy & the host was very responsive when sent a message. The location was peaceful yet close to surrounding Cities. Highly Recommend!

This is an amazing find! We have been to 37 states and have stayed in countless air bnbs, and this is quite possibly our favorite. The location is gorgeous! The house is packed with amenities, which we super appreciated as a family of 5. The view every morning and evening was stunning. We were able to kayak from the house, have campfires, see the stars at night, enjoy the view and TV while hot tubbing, sip tea from the balcony, hike the nearby preserve, watch the wildlife and experience the amazing tides. We would 100% stay here again and hope to after we catch the other 13 states. If you're on the fence, just book it!!

We loved staying at this lake house. The kayaks were an added bonus that my husband and kids enjoyed. One of the neighbors even gave us a boat ride on the pond to the floating slide and the kids had a blast jumping off of it. The boys caught lots of fish right off shore. It was a great place to stay away from the city on our vacation.

Excellent accommodations! Party of 6 was very comfortable! Easy drive to Acadia and Bar Harbor! Host offers lots of options for entertainment and has great taste in books!!

Very nice little apartment in a quiet and woodsy neighborhood in Southwest Harbor, a very short drive from plenty of restaurants and so forth, and also convenient for exploring the rest of MDI. The apartment was clean, well-equipped, and comfortable, and Caroline was responsive and very friendly, as were the rest of her family. Would definitely stay there again.

We felt right at home at the Open Hearth Inn. Arthur and his team were very friendly and helpful. The inn is stocked with everything you need to enjoy your stay, including snacks and treats for both humans and pups. We enjoyed the fire pit and hot tub when we weren’t hiking in Acadia. Definitely a great experience!

This Airbnb was exactly as listed. Everything is updated, very clean, and comfortable. Jordana was very responsive and accommodating. I would stay here again.

A quiet bungalow away from the tourist dense center of Bar Harbor and easily accessible to great food, hikes, and the park. The kitchen was well stocked and the whole place was thoughtfully decorated and appealing to all of us!

I cannot say enough about Nancy, the unit I stayed in, or her hospitality! This apartment was perfect and cozy for my visit, with lots of personal touches and extras - if you need it, she’s already thought of it and has it ready for you. She was also very accommodating when my flight was cancelled and I had to shift my days around a bit. The personal touches were perfect - I had farm fresh eggs for breakfast and some delicious muffins too. A wonderful stay, thank you! I will most definitely be back! ❤️

We had a very nice day at James’s place. It had everything we needed and the space was very well thought out. Would recommend!

Great place to stay in Bangor. John was super responsive and proactive with any/all questions I had on top of being very accommodating and polite. Wonderful host.

Renee's place was great for rest and recovery between hikes at Acadia. Had everything we needed to prepare our own food, and located close to shopping. We had a great time and would definitely stay again next time we explore Acadia!

This is our 3rd visit to this cabin. It’s everything my family could ever want in a getaway. I love the rustic nature of it, but appreciate its modern conveniences. It’s also peaceful and the fishing is great. It’s close enough to Lincoln to grab stuff, but far enough to feel completely remote. Also within range of Baxter state park. It’s truly a special place I will continue to visit.

The cabin in Penobscot was exactly what we needed for a quick trip away. Not only was it quiet and peaceful, but the cabin itself was beautiful, thoughtfully appointed, and extremely comfortable. We came up to Maine to see Acadia and Bar Harbor, and while they were a bit of a drive away, it was an easy and scenic drive. The cabin is perfect for couples and families alike, and we can’t wait to stay again in the future!

First ever air bnb stay and it’ll be hard to beat! Great views (even got to see some ball lightening in the distance) very dog friendly, the hot tub was awesome! Super cozy place, will definitely be back!

We stayed at the Bambi Inn on Art Farm and loved everything about it! The space is thoughtfully designed with cheerful custom art and decor. The hosts designed a custom manual/booklet that blows the typical air bnb binder out of the water. The home was well equipped with everything you might need from extra blankets & towels, to kitchen and bathroom needs, first aid supplies, sunscreen, bugspray, and more. It’s impossible not to smile when arriving at the Bambi Inn. The hosts provide bicycles to use for the short ride to beautiful Lamoine Beach. We were able to get to Acadia National Park, Bar Harbor, and other neighboring towns with ease. I’d highly recommend booking here!

Our stay at Dave's lakefront cabin was exactly what we'd hoped for, and then some. This isn't just a rental; it feels like a genuinely preserved piece of Maine – authentic and full of character. Being right on the lake was the absolute highlight. The views are truly epic, offering stunning sunrises and peaceful evenings that we savored from the deck and the dock. It was the perfect backdrop for morning coffee and winding down after exploring. Dave is an exceptional host. He was incredibly welcoming and thoughtful, making sure we had everything we needed without ever being intrusive. You can tell he cares deeply about this place and his guests. The cabin is filled with thoughtful touches that are one-of-a-kind, from the cozy throws to the unique decor that tells a story, making it feel less like a temporary stay and more like a cherished home.

Megan’s home is beautiful and welcoming. It’s ideally located on the quieter side of the island. She’s a wonderful and knowledgeable host. We would stay here again without hesitation. Charming, spacious and comfortable.

This was the exact place we were looking for. Peaceful, rustic but with all the modern amenities, and a fire place that tops it off. Definitely recommend staying here if you are looking to leave the world behind a few days.

Old school cabin vibes! Loved this place and we will be back to spend much longer than our short 2 days. I loved having a fire going after a day in the woods and hopping into a cozy bed. It was too cold for us to go swimming- but their were canoes, kayaks, row boats and other water crafts to choose from. Beautiful and rustic. Clean and comfortable. Also we left something behind and they shipped it the next day . Thank you!
