The room was absolutely adorable. Freshly remodeled with excellent design choices. Functional kitchen. Super cute little cottage. Perfect weekend getaway for me and my dog. Only thing was it was a bit cold, but it was very cold snowy and windy outside, so its understandable. Could only get heat to get room up to 60 degrees F (i set thermostat to 90, but 60 was all it could pull off). My dog and i wore layers so we stayed warm enough. Very comfy bed.

Winter Stay

First time staying in Bar Harbor in the colder months. We were warm and toasty. The kitchenette gave us all we needed to make a hot cuppa. Enjoyed the "touchless" check-in and out.

The unit was modern, extremely clean. Community fire pits stocked with plenty of wood just bring your own marshmallows 😎. We loved the communication. We received a welcome text the day before our visit and a text the day of our visit with the room code so there was no check in required.

Room so small that it felt cramped with our suitcases. On the plus side the shower was wonderful. Great water pressure, nice shower head and ultra hot water. Convenient location to Acadia. Not many outlets or lighting. Overall too small for me but otherwise it worked.
