The perfect stay. Susie the front desk lady was very warm and friendly making the check in process that much more inviting. Walking distance to everything in Bar harbor. Our room was so cozy we actually spent more time then we expected there resting between trips to Acadia park. Looking forward to booking agin in the future.

Extremely helpful front desk attendant. Lots of local suggestions. Most everything in town is within walking distance. Clean room. Only issue was the bathroom door not shutting completely.

This motel was very convenient for walking into Bar Harbor's main strip, but not so close that it was noisy. The staff was very helpful in suggesting activities and restaurants in the area. They had a map and highlighted some things for me. They took the time to help and seemed happy to do so. I would stay there again in a heartbeat.

Only 3 blocks from main street. Park your car and walk. Clean. VERY friendly staff (Susie, Natel, Daniette, and Eric were soooo friendly and helpful), great parking in the lot. Church right across the street. This was all so convenient for us.
