Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities
Location was great, the beds super comfortable, the bathroom and shower was super clean. You need a car ah also convenient for Bar Harbor en 15 20 minutes and Acadia Park. A plus, the view at the lake! Highly recommended and affordable!
The name of the hotel suggests it's located in Bar Harbor, whike in reality it's located in Trenton, 30 minute drive away from Bar Harbor, and Acadia park.
The view of the water at the rear of the property is beautiful. Sunset and sunrise are gorgeous. The accommodations are simple but our room was clean and everyone who worked there was incredibly nice
Small and quaint, but clean and easy to get to.Nice that it is off the main road a bit. The floor level rooms were a little musty. But all in all a great stay.
Easy access to Acadia/Bar Harbor with very reasonable prices, two restaurants in walking distance, comfortable bed, hair dryer, Keurig coffee maker, super convenient all around, and very kind staff!
Thank you for providing a safe comfortable homey environment for my vacation!
