This inn was the perfect place to stay in Bar Harbor during our trip to Acadia National Park! The inn was very clean, cozy, and charmingly decorated. Staff were so kind and helpful. Meals were delicious and accommodating to preferences/dietary restrictions. The homemade baked goods that awaited us after long hikes were the cherry on top. I hope to stay here again!

Really nice place! We found safe parking in front and absolutely loved our room. The young gentleman that checked us in was very nice and helpful. The chef the next morning made us a delicious meal. This place was very close to downtown and we just walked the block to lots of places to show, sightsee, or eat. Would definitely recommend and stay here again.
