Wonderful staff, clean rooms, yummy breakfast! This inn is right near downtown Bar Harbor (less than a 10 min walk to the center of town). The staff were exceptional and very kind. The beds were comfy and the rooms were spotless. I would definitely stay here again.

We had a great stay and could not recommend this Inn more! It was so cute, well maintained with super cozy bed/bedding, a welcoming and comfortable common area and delicious breakfast. The staff are very friendly and though we only stayed one night it was wonderful and we hope to be back again!

Great vacation stay
Had a great stay at this inn.
The inn was absolutely spotless from the common area to the rooms!
The Breakfast each morning was amazing, a perfect start before hitting the trails of Acadia.
The front desk ladies were beyond helpful especially when I made a error and cutting my reservation a day short They were able to find me a room though they were about at capacity!
I would not hesitate to highly recommend this inn to friends and family.
