Fun fact: the ladder trail is a trail with huge rocks going up at a steep incline the rocks were actually layed in the ground for women that wanted to hike the trail in their dress's. Bubble is the hike for tourist. There's some amazing hikes in acadia. So happy to call Maine my home. My dog has climed presipus. Climbs the ladders and all lol.
We have a house on Long Pond in Southwest Harbor. Love Acadia! Great video!
Thanks Henry!!
Planning my trip now. Your video is extremely helpful. Thank you
Stoked to hear Corey! Hope you have a great trip!
Congrats on Year 2! I have a photo of my wife drinking a glass of wine in a Walmart Parking lot in Kansas for our 10 Year Anniversary during our RVLife days. This May is 25 years and we will be in our 2014 Sprinter. If you swing through Taos, NM on the Mountain Collective Pass we could hook you up on local spots. Taos Ski Valley opens mid Dec now. (I'm an Instructor there). Thanks again for all the DIY Videos. My van build would not be nearing completion without them.
Todd thank you!!! Congrats on the upcoming 25 years!!! Taos is for sure on my list so we’ll let you know hopefully February ish!!! Glad to hear the van build series helped out!!
Maine is a beautiful state ❤
Happy anniversary you two enjoy your new videos
Thank you Bill!!! We appreciate it!!
Congratulations on the 2nd anniversary. Looks like you both got lucky 👏👏👏
Thank you Jackie!!! Yes we did!
Adding this park to my Bucket list 👌
do it, it's beautiful!
Yay. It’s Tuesday. Your video is out. It’s so nice after a busy day to just chill on the couch and watch your video.
Happy anniversary.
You van is beautiful. It’s almost unbelievable that you both build it by yourself. ( mostly Kevin😁)
I watched every single episode.
Enjoy it. 💕💕
Hey Maggie thank you so much! We’re so happy to hear you look forward to our episodes! We really appreciate it!! 🙏🏻
Happy Anniversary!! Keep making great memories!!!
Thank you Sherry!!! We will!! 👍🏻

Thank you CD!!!
Happy Anniversary!!
You did score with you wife, she is gourgeos!✨
Thanks Matt! Yes I did haha
I love your channel, I’m glad I found you guys from your van tour video!!
Thanks Wyatt really appreciate it!! 🤙🏻
alltrails.. thanks for the tip
Hope you guys checked out Freeport, Maine. The original LL Bean Store. Another quaint Maine town. That was the halfway point my Jersey friends stayed the night at, The Muddy Rudder, on our way up for our annual New Brunswick Hunting Trip. I can't believe how much of a resemblance there is with Kevin and my former neighbor in Jersey, Kevin Murphy. He was a Port Authority Sergeant A Big Strapping Irish Guy. Taylor, you could be the sister of my Ex. Must be something in the Jersey Coffee, LOL. PS...Here's one for you guys. What is the line everyone who lives in Jersey hears? What Exit are you from??? So Funny. Start selling Huge Coffee Mugs like Taylors for all us coffee drinkers, and have exit signs printed on them to remind your viewers of just how many miles you both have under your feet. I lived off the GSP at exit #131. Get off at Clark, through Westfield and into Mountainside.
Next time take a carriage ride or the harbor boat tour either worth the money.
I was looking for vacation rental videos and came across your channel. Love it, you two are so cute together & make the videos fun to watch along with being very helpful RE: hikes, places to visit etc... We have been to Acadia/Mt. Desert Island 5 times since our kids were young. Last visit, it was just me and my husband b/c the kiddos are grown adults now with their own children. We did stay in the Camden area in 2015, loved it but once you've been to Mt. Desert Island,I think it's hard not to go back. After watching your videos, we are making plans to visit Mt. Desert in May... our first trip since COVID hit. We both have been vaccinated so I feel better about going out to eat & just getting on the road again. Of course, we will still bring our masks. A friend of mine and her husband use Walmart parking lots quite a bit when they are in areas they aren't able to find a campground for one night. Keep producing these fun vid's!
Thank you Lisa! Acadia is incredible We’ll be back there for sure! Enjoy it in May! weather should be beautiful!
@@MathersOnTheMap Agree, I'm sure you will be back. Can never just make "one" trip there, it's a bit addicting :)
What a great Anniversary night! We were just in Bar Harbor last week. Where did you go for that special offline Anniversary dinner? Blaze? Balance Rock? Havana?
Thanks! We went to Gaylins! Recommended from our friend who lives in Maine it was delicious!
Happy anniversary guys!
Thanks Al!
Taylor your funny, love that sense of humor. The scenery is breath taking, and adventurous at the same time. I am curious. What do you guys do for work or did before this? Great video guys.
Haha thanks Dirk! We’re going to make a video about it hopefully soon. Taylor is a nurse currently working part time and I used to work in IT in Corporate America for 6 years
@@MathersOnTheMap Cool, that’s handy that Taylor is a nurse when you’re travelling. IT means you can literally work from anywhere, you guys have it made. I am a school Guidance Counsellor, so I have 11.5 weeks paid holidays a year, hens why I want a van to travel. Stay safe.
Damn 11.5 weeks! You need a van fast!
This is why I travel in a VAN.
What month did you go to Acadia? We watched your video to try and plan a trip in mid April but don’t know if that’s a good time or not.
Happy anniversary! 🎉
Just found your channel and love it 😍 We are heading to Maine this summer. Can you tell us where you camped after you left Campden ME?
Thank you!!!! Check out our overnight camping map on our website you need to trade your email though :) (scroll to the bottom of www.mathersonthemap.com)
any knowledge or thoughts on using reflectix along with Havelock? Please?
Sounds good to me! We used rock wool and reflectix
Nice video! I’m going in September. What all did you need a reservation for?
It may have been required for Covid not sure if it is anymore
I think I ate like 10 lobsters while we were there 5 years ago. Stumbled upon a church lobster fest. Lobster crashers!
Hahaha that’s too funny, they’re so good!
Hi~^^
It’s Hunters Cove
Ohh yea!!!
This girl is dope. You scored
Haha thanks Dave, yes I did!!!
At dinner get one of their domestic dark drafts, you won’t regret it
You guys really need to look stuff up before you go. You missed out on so much
Hey Dave, What did we miss? We’ll be back to Acadia one day
