The property was charming and spacious. The vent in the bathroom was clogged with a visible layer of dust. The hot tub & pool were out of order & the owners were unwilling to provide a discount.

Beautiful B&B, with exceptional renovations and decor. Wonderful room. Owners very friendly and informative about things to do in the area.. Close to village, but far enough to be quiet and private. Nice afternoon wine and cheese, and exceptional breakfasts! Only minor issue was room was not serviced after first night stay. Not a big deal but surprised us. Certainly give this a very strong recommendation.

We had such a lovely stay at this bed and breakfast! The hosts were some of the friendliest people we’ve ever met—so welcoming and helpful with tips about Bar Harbor and Acadia. Breakfast in the morning was delicious and made us feel right at home. And we absolutely adored Cookie, their sweet dog—he made the stay even more special. We would definitely come back the next time we’re in the area!

It was a good one night stay experience at Dan and Joan’s place. The suite is big, clean and cozy. It’s on the side of the building and has its own entrance which provides us more privacy. The living room is big so we got enough space for our luggages. The bed is super comfortable, like it a lot.

We had a wonderful stay at this B&B. The property itself is absolutely gorgeous and beautifully maintained. The hosts were polite, warm, and very well-informed, offering plenty of helpful tips and recommendations—every suggestion we followed turned out to be spot on. Check-in was smooth and hassle-free. The food was delicious, served right on time, and really added to the overall experience. Overall, a perfect blend of comfort, hospitality, and charm. Highly recommended!

Perfect location for walking to Main St. and enjoying all of the shops and restaurants. Also, minutes to drive to Acadia and access the beautiful National Park. Apartment with full kitchen (Raven's Nest) was great for preparing a couple of meals. The king size bed was so comfortable and the shower had great pressure. The built-in window seat for two was lovely for relaxing and reading. We would definitely stay here again and highly recommend it to others.

We stayed 4 nights at Chiltern Inn in July. What a gorgeous property! We felt like royalty on vacation. Our room was charming and cozy. All rooms in the house were beautifully decorated with elegant furniture, antiques, and delightful artworks. All amenities were clean and well taken care of. Our hosts, Joan and Dan were very kind and caring- a wonderful hot breakfast was served every morning, a complimentary wine was waiting the guests in afternoon; their knowledge of Bar Harbor and Acadia NP were vast and their enthusiasm for activities contagious. We enjoyed our stay very much. Thank you very much.

The free breakfast is a homemade breakfast by the owner! Local and fresh ingredients. One morning was an omelette, another was blueberry pancakes with Maine blueberries and maple syrup. The owners are happy to suggest ideas for your time in and around Acadia for anything you might want to do.
