About the host

Hosted by Karen Pierce

Host profile image
Karen and Matt Pierce are long term summer residents of the town of Mt. Desert. Matt's ancestral family has enjoyed Acadia since the 1870s and were instrumental in founding Acadia National Park.
Our son and daughter-in-law co-own the building with us and run the Rusticator, a beautiful home design studio and decor shop on the first floor. We are in charge of the Nest. We are avid boaters and love to explore the wilderness. But we also love to read, play games and do puzzles when the weather isn't so great.
We've set up the Nest so that our guests can have great access to the waterfront and the park, while enjoying a hot coffee and doing a crossword puzzle on the morning deck if they prefer.

Why they chose this property

The Nest is new, convenient and perfect for active recreation or quiet reflection. You can walk to the next-door restaurant or library, carry your kayak to the beach, bike the carriage roads of Acadia National Park or hike its mountains. Enjoy your coffee on the morning deck overlooking Main Street or sun bathe on the back deck in the afternoon.
Grill your dinner and enjoy the sunset while listening to the ocean waves. Walk on the village green and sit on the bluff overlooking Seal Harbor. Get on a ferry and visit the Cranberry Islands, drive to Bar Harbor to shop, or work on our commercial speed internet while your loved ones have popovers at Jordan Pond house. All these opportunities are 10 minutes or less from the Nest.
Or sleep in on our comfortable queen-size bed in our enhanced sound-proofed rooms.
You'll love every minute!

What makes this property unique

The Nest is a unique property on Mt Desert Island. First, it is newly renovated and exquisitely designed for easy living. Built in 1880, the building was moved in 1910 to its current location. In 2019 and 2020, we completely restored the building from the studs out, so while the property retains the charm of the 1880s, it has every modern convenience, including a full kitchen, washer and dryer, commercial speed internet, heating and air conditioning with an en-suite master bedroom and lovely second bedroom with a private deck.
In the past, the building at 10 Main St has been a marketplace, a social club and a vacation residence. Today, the Rusticator store on the first floor is a beautiful and eclectic design studio and the Nest is a stand-alone apartment. We've plenty of maps, books, games and TV so that you can plan your events while staying at the Nest.
we hope that you enjoy our jewel of an apartment,.
