Holiday rentals with beach access in Yarmouth County

The barn is a really special place on a really amazing island. There are so many hidden gem areas on this island. It’s a true place to get away, explore and have some time in a secluded place, but still close to some amazing things. I was at the barn for 4 nights. Went to Acadia and bar harbor one day and hunkered down the other 2 as it was raining. The places to explore on the island are beautiful, even in the rain and allowed me to have some time away from reality. Highly recommend staying in the cranberry isles…especially at Judi/Chong’s place.

All the comforts of home. Modern and clean.

I rented Steve and Mary Ann’s Airbnb for my son and his girlfriend and they loved the accommodations, very comfortable and quiet… they said it was the best sleep they had during their vacation to Nova Scotia.

Loved the location. Nice sized unit, everything we needed. Beds were comfy. Kitchen was great. Some street and people noise, but Bar Harbor is a busy area, so to be expected. Can hear the people upstairs or in the stairwell, but again, to be expected. Water gurgling sounds (that seemed to coincide with heat running?) were surprising. Not a sound we're used to, but not too terribly bothersome. Parking is a pain. We generally were able to find a spot in front of the place after returning from outings, but parking is an extra cost. Steve is going to address that on the listing, as it specifically says "free street parking". He reimbursed us for some of the parking expense, which was good of him. We recommend this place, and we would stay again. Loved being right in Bar Harbor, as opposed to the outskirts, which we considered, but so glad we didn't!

Eric and Dawn's place was great. While small, it had everything you need. It is always great to have a functional kitchen. It has a spectacular view and is easy walking distance to Summerville beach and the Quarterdeck restaurant. We appreciated the heat pump system and with the changing Nova Scotia temperatures we were always comfortable. Thoughtful hosts who checked to see if there was anything needed. Can highly recommend staying at "The Decks" and hope to return.

This place is wonderful! The highlight is definitely the kayaking—we saw seals when we were out on the bay one day!!!—but the place was well stocked, convenient for hiking, cooking, and hanging out. Plus they have an adorable dog named yoda who you can pet if you’d like!

This lovely apartment directly overlooking the park in downtown Bar Harbor was the perfect place for our family. With grandparents, parents, two small children, and a chihuahua, we had room to spread out, sleep comfortably, walk to the beach and the park, shop, and eat wonderful food and ice cream. I would want others to know that the stairs up to the apartment are steep, a tiny bit tricky for the senior with bad knees and the toddlers with short legs. The apartment has a Smart TV, which wasn't really watchable for us. If they had cable it would have been just perfect! Overall, this place was in a dream location and afforded all of us a chance to relax and enjoy the gorgeous fall weekend in Maine.

Perfect place to stay when exploring the really unique Briar Island…the house was comfortable and relaxing. Don’t miss out on watching the sunset near the lighthouse- spectacular!!

We enjoyed our stay at Ashleys's home. It is a beautiful, peaceful and lovely location, with great proximity to Acadia National Park, Winter Harbor and the Schoodic Institute. Our family enjoyed watching the lobster boats in the morning and noodling around the peninsula. It was a very comfortable space, with a well stocked kitchen and dining area.

We stayed for three nights at this beautiful, almost brandnew home and liked it a lot. Everything was crystal clean, very cozy and quiet at night and day. The kitchen is very well equipped so we were able to prepare nice breakfasts and dinners. The bedroom and bathroom are both very spaceous as is the living room. The host Karina was absolutely friendly and also her dad, who was our neighbor. Karina prepared a very lovely welcome package with some treats – really really kind. Thank you for having us. We would come back anytime.

What a beautiful place to stay! Denise welcomed us, and took us on a tour of the house. Her house is equipped with everything you need, it was awesome. the home was clean and very comfortable. The nature cant be beat! The sky at night is of course incredible, as is the beach right across the road. Beautiful stones, a rockhound would have a ball. I cannot wait to go back!

Great place to stay! An amazing view of the ocean, one of the best things about stying here!

Great private spot. Off the beaten path. Could be further from Bar Harbor than some might prefer. Very clean, scenery was great and we paddle boarded and kayaked as we had direct access to the water. We really enjoyed our stay and Chad was super responsive and very helpful.

Very comfortable and beautiful place. Walking distance to a cute restaurant and quick drive away from some nice beaches on the south shore.

Truly a spotless & comfortable "Home Away from Home" in a serene setting. The listing didn't do this charming home justice. Very comfortable beds, great shower, and picture perfect Mainesetting. Perfect escape from beautiful but busy Bar Harbor. Host was very responsive and the home is well equipped. Recommend J.M. Gerrish in nearby Winter Harbor for breakfast. Would stay again!

We really enjoyed our stay here! We are local to NS and love the south shore, the location is between two beautiful beaches and the view from the house was gorgeous. The house itself was clean and spacious, the kitchen was stocked well with supplies to cook and there were plenty of towels, robes, and pillows. Overall our stay was amazing and I can’t think of anything that would’ve made it better!
