Absolutely loved our stay here. The property was located a couple of blocks from Main St so very convenient but quiet. The room was comfortable, property very well kept, easy parking, and the hosts were fantastic. Would definitely stay here again the next time we visit.

Very friendly and accomodating staff. Alleviated the need to park downtown and everything was within walking distance. Main parts of Acadia are only a few mintutes drive

This is the perfect place for couples or singles to stay while visiting Bar Harbor. The historic house has been lovingly taken care of and beautifully decorated. The host was friendly and helpful with general information about the area. We had a secluded haven in the mist of a lively and beautiful seaport town. We would love to go back some day.

Very pleasant inn. Is in need of some repair. Our room did not have AC and the ceiling fan was noisy. Staff was excellent and you could walk to town.

This Inn was wonderful. A little dated but it adds to the charm. Within walking distance to the village. The innkeeper was extremely kind and helpful, giving us tips on the area. The morning breakfast was delicious. Would definitely recommend.

Great location. Excellent hospitality. Tasty breakfast.
Negatives: no housekeeping in the room, although there was an envelope for tips. For the room size, it was a pricey stay. Are all Bar Harbor B&Bs $400/night? Wow.

The property is older and is in need of some updating. Speaking with the owner (Bob) at breakfast who was a very nice guy has renovations planned this off season. Breakfast was included and it was great!!!

Breakfast was not cooked on the premises and there were no options. unless you have a food allergy or a special request. All breakfast meals were microwaved to be heated up. The afternoon snacks were great especially after a long active day.
