6/10

The room and view were very nice, but service was very lacking. Continental breakfast was advertised but not provided. Ownership had a family gathering during our stay which was uncomfortable, and felt like we were imposing on their family reunion. The stay should not have been available if that was planned as the lodge did not feel welcoming with the family and kids using the kitchen to cook breakfast and any other meals, especially in absence of providing the advertised breakfast to paying guests. Additionally, the room didn’t have a trash can.

Our cabin was absolutely magiical at the Bluff House Inn and exactly what you want for a Maine coastal cabin! Don, the owner, was incredibly responsive and gave us numerous tips for our visit. Breakfast was perfect and homemade baked goods were delicious, plus the cookie when we arrived for check in! A must stay in the Acadia area and we will definitely be back!
