House holiday rentals in Franklin

Me and my friends loved this BNB!! The hot tub was amazing and the pool was an awesome addition. Instructions were clear and even called to walk me through everything. Plenty of places to sleep and loads of places to go!

The house was perfect for us. Very clean and organized. Great host always responded in a timely manner. Was only about a 30 to 40 minute drive to Acadia National Park & Bar harbor, depending on traffic it could take longer. If we ever make it back to Maine I would definitely stay at the Higgins Retreat again. Thanks again Richard & Tina.

this was the 3rd time our family has stayed,again we had a fantastic time! We chose to return due to the great space, a fabulous indoor pool, great kitchen and an amazing view. Great attention to details, comfortable for large families or groups and peaceful for just 2.

We felt like at home. The house is located in a private property with swimming pool and tennis courts. It’s very clean and very peaceful. Just a clarification about the description : there’s no bathroom in the basement. Then if you come with elderly people or very young kids, it could be annoying. If you like cooking, the kitchen is very well equipped. We´ll keep a very good memory of our stay in Ducktrap Retreat during the colorful foliage season.

Thank you Christina! Great weekend stay for UMaine graduation. Great location from campus and stores for the things we forgot (haha).

Booked this place for our anniversary to get away from the city for a weekend.. we found exactly what we were looking for! The hot tub was wonderful, the house was clean and cute, and we had everything we could have needed! Estelle was very responsive and gave clear instructions for everything. Would recommend this place for a quiet getaway or a small group trip in the summer!

My return visit to the Boathouse was even lovelier than I hoped it would be. The location can't be matched by anything else I've seen. I enjoyed a September visit with my dog and was lucky to have pristine weather. I lived a very simple and healthy outdoors life and came home the better for it. The Boathouse is true to its description: it is simple and rustic and uncomplicated but well-equipped, and is perfect for one-and-dog, or for two people. A little coming-and-going from the neighboring houses meant that I didn't feel isolated. Margaret is truly an exceptional and friendly host who communicates promptly and clearly. I almost hesitate to share "my" Boathouse location with too many of my back-home friends because it feels so intimate and special. I already want to be back there. I offer my deep thanks to Margaret and to the place that I could - briefly - call home.

I recently stayed with my family at this incredible Airbnb that exceeded all my expectations. This property offered a hot tub, a pool table, and a level of privacy and tranquility that made for a truly relaxing getaway. One of the highlights of our stay was being able to watch the northern lights from the hot tub – it was absolutely magical. We spent a week in Acadia, and the location was perfect, just 15-20 minutes from Bar Harbor or the nearest town. The hosts were very responsive, and the place was fantastic for families, being both kid and pet friendly. It was a week filled with unforgettable moments, and I can't recommend this place enough!

10/10 would recommend Dana’s place! Easy to get to, and absolutely spotless! There is a nice walking trail to the lake to enjoy time by the water. We had a great stay, plenty to do within an hour radius of the Airbnb. As a chicken lover, I adored the flock that roamed the property. They’re very friendly :)

Loved our stay in your beautiful home. The decor and cleanliness made us feel right at home. Perfect place to leave the Acadia crowds behind! Everything was perfect!

great location to get around to other areas of MDI - super easy drive to Bar Harbor and multiple locations around Acadia. very clean house, thanks !

This was a beautiful place to enjoy a relaxing and tranquil vacation. Elizabeth was very attentive and helpful when there were questions and answered promptly. There was lots to do in the area with beautiful surroundings.

The photos on the website didn’t do it justice! It was a beautiful location and a great place to stay away from the hustle and bustle of Acadia and Bar Harbor. This rental is almost good enough to be your actual destination. The house has everything you could possibly imagine and it was just pristine. They also provided all the paper products four adults needed for 9 nights. Thanks for a lovely stay!

Thoroughly enjoyed our stay and the tranquil and beautiful surroundings. Easy drive into MDI but nice to come home to the quiet of Lamoine!

What a beautiful hidden gem this lake house is! Nestled into the Maine forest on the edge of the peaceful lake, it was a perfect spot for a relaxed reunion for two families. As we have small children, I appreciated that the water isn't too close to the house but still accessible via stairs. Travis and Laura were excellent hosts and had the house stocked with everything we could need for a wonderful stay!

We had a wonderful stay. Melissa and Andrew’s place is fantastic! It was very cozy, clean, and a convenient base for Bar Harbor adventures.

Beautiful place with everything you need for a low key getaway. Not a bad drive to Bar Harbor and Acadia but with better peace and quiet in the mornings and evenings! Definitely would recommend

John's place is absolutely beautiful and homey! The house has been totally renovated in the winter of 2025 and is very lovely, classy, on-trend in ways that make this seaside cottage feel so refreshed, current and relatable. And that's just the INSIDES! The deck overhanging the rocks to the shore is THE perfect place to hang out: start your day here with a mug of hot coffee. Have lunch and cocktails in the afternoon/evening while viewing the unspoiled, gorgeous bay. Nature and serenity are what this place is ALL about! Enjoy the total peace, privacy and happiness this home provides. It's a true gem!

Cute, cozy and convenient location at a reasonable rate! we made this our base camp for exploring upper Maine with acadia 30 mins away, 45 from bangor, 15 from ellsworth, and we jumped off to the easternmost point along the canada border as well as katahdin woods and waters for day trips 1.5-2 hours away. highly recommend! fun artwork decorated the house with modern updates. gorgeous country kitchen as we did make 1 meal in house there in our 4 nights there.

Beautiful place! Can't wait to visit again. Very comfortable and access to nature right in your backyard.

We loved our three nights at Seabank. The house was comfortable and immaculate, the kitchen well equipped, and the location—overlooking tidal Goose Bay with views toward Mount Desert Island—could not have been more tranquil (plus an easy 20-minute drive to Acadia/Bar Harbor). Robard was a terrific host, quick to answer our questions, and even lending a hand to ensure that we were able to check in early. We lucked into gorgeous weather and spent lots of time outdoors, reading on the deck, kayaking in the bay at high tide, and relaxing around the fire pit.

Everything was clean and just what I expected from the listing. It was a great location in relation to Acadia National Park. We enjoyed staying in more secluded spot, but we could easily drive into the busier Bar Harbor area. I highly recommend staying at Hannah’s place!

We loved our stay. The apartment was spotless and the beds were very comfortable. It had everything you need to cook meals and having the washer and dryer was a bonus especially when hiking. There was even laundry detergent. I would definitely stay here again. It was about 30 minutes to Acadia National Park. Bar Harbor had so many restaurants and shops. Loved the coffee shop Flexit Cafe in Ellsworth. Amazing breakfast sandwiches.

I had a lovely visit with a good friend. The air bnb stood out to us because of how beautiful the photos were and they didn’t do the place justice. It was so nice to stay in a place that felt like it was cut from a magazine. The home is in a private space but not far from restaurants and other towns with cute shops. We were close to lots of hiking trails and coastlines. I am quite sure I’ll be back!
