Stayed here for my 3 day visit to Acadia, very glad I chose this property. Close enough to Bar Harbor and the park, but far enough away, so you’re not landlocked within the island. Clean room, clean property, parking lot is well lit night, and there’s a lobster shack right across the street that had the best bang for your buck lobster I personally found with my stay to Maine.

This adorable little motel was perfect for my daughter and I. We stayed in a two bedroom cottage and it was immaculate, with the room being serviced daily. The staff was friendly and helpful. We were surprised that one air conditioner cooled the entire cottage, but it did! The bathroom was small but was fine for us. My only recommendation would be to replace the chairs in the main room with a couch, facing the television.

AC had a musty rotten smell when we switched it on, there was no interior lock or way to latch the door shut at all, only an external lock with one key. We did not feel safe staying there.

No Microwave, no breakfast, (just small coffee and homemade donuts ball), fridge was small, bathroom was tiny barely, you cannot move hand, just stand and take shower, very much pricey for the hotel which is 30mins far from acadia welcome center.

The room was clean. The room had a full bed instead of a queen bed but according to the front office, we booked a full bed instead of a queen bed, but that’s highly unlikely. Through my experience of booking hotels/motels I never heard of a room having a full bed.

4/10 Poor

Our biggest complaint was the mattress- it was very uncomfortable and worn down. The room’s organization could have been better. The rack where you hang your clothes was on the wall next to the full size bed - overlapping the area where we were sleeping. The room’s cleanliness was good.,but we saw a couple of bugs.

My wife and I stayed here for a good few nights while we adventured around Acadia National Park. This hotel really stuck out to us at first because of the price and central location to many areas, while being just outside the hustle and bustle of Bar Harbor. When we arrived, we were greeted nicely and were given the lay of the land. We quickly new the places to go, places to avoid, and how best to navigate around the islands. Our room was simple and dated, but not in a bad way at all. The bed was very comfortable, the air conditioning worked great, and we had a fridge and microwave that could be used. The only downfall I could see is the size of the shower. It is definitely a single stall shower which required some getting used to, but after 2 nights, that was easy to figure out. I'd still give 5 stars for this either way. We would definitely stay here again!
