Relaxing couple of days at Bar Harbor made nicer by stay at the Inn. Good location to waterfront and Arcadia Park. Early morning walk at shoreline, hike to Gorham Mountain Peak and stroll at Jordan Pond were all within easy reach by foot and by car. Very good bed and enjoyable breakfasts.

Great location, easy to find and rather walkable to the town (about 15-20 minutes). Parking was available but limited if you come later at night. Breakfast was hot and made to order which was pleasant.

This is a true “old” Maine experience. The young, energetic staff greeted us with a warm welcome and continually checked to make sure our needs were met. The rooms were decorated in nautical themes. They were not large but well proportioned. Th bed was fantastic. The bed linens and bath towels were excellent and EVERYTHING was spotless. It was such a nice change from commercial properties. We had a relaxing and enjoyable stay. We high,y recommend this lovely inn.

I loved everything about this stay! The staff were exceptional! It was clean and I loved the homey, yet elevated environment. My only complaint is that there weren’t enough parking spaces for every vehicle.

Excellent inn with many rooms but didn’t feel crowded even at breakfast in the indoor/outdoor spaces. Free private parking and walkable in town. Cute garden and gas fire pit outside also with outdoor rocking chairs on the front porch, and a side area for eating or resting outside. Breakfast was good and included a savory or a sweet option and fresh fruit. Pastries, bread, cereal, and other accoutrements were available for supplement. Rooms were very nice with good beds and bedding and had a microwave and mini fringe and small counter area.

We were ushered out of our room in the morning by a friendly fire alarm set off by the kitchen staff. the breakfast was good but somewhat small portions and the buffet area wasn't restocked at any point throughout our meal.

What a great spot! Staff was exceptionally helpful. The easy parking and short walk to town was a bonus because of very limited parking in town. The room was quiet and clean, with a hot shower, comfortable bed and coffee in the room. Breakfast served in the main lounge was delicious. I’d highly recommend this Inn!
