We had a wonderful 6 night stay in the spacious Garden Room! The house is beautiful inside & out. Dan & Joan are perfect hosts - he with insightful recommendations on sites/experiences on and off the beaten track; she with fine restaurant quality breakfasts that are healthy and filling. One always feels fortunate when a booking meets the expectations set by the site listing...the Chiltern Inn exceeded them! Thank you, Dan & Joan.

Wonderful stay. Dan and Joan were excellent hosts. Very friendly and helpful. Breakfast both days was fantastic and beautifully presented. Location was very good, a quick 10 to 15 minute walk downtown. If your room is on the 2nd floor there are stairs. Chiltern Inn is a beautiful place to stay. Highly recommend.

Joan and Dan were lovely. Dan played music in the afternoons during wine and cheese time. We got a good mix of wine/cheese by ourselves and a bit of socializing as well. Dan's voice is wonderful as he occasionally sings the songs he plays (piano is primary instrument).

We loved our stay at Chiltern and would return. Dan welcomed us with wine,cheese, and song. He was quite helpful directing us throughout town as well as on our hikes at Acadia. Bar Harbor is a lovely town. We enjoyed the ocean side walk as well as lunch at The Terrace. It was nice to meet the other travelers and enjoy breakfast Only con for us was the heat in the bathroom. We also thought room would be cleaned as we stayed 2 nights but maybe that was a miscommunication. We recomend staying here-walkable to town as well as moutain.

What a beautiful Inn! We stayed in the Yellow Room which was nicely appointed and opened into a charming sitting room. We enjoyed a delicious breakfast and wonderful advice about sightseeing from our hosts. The Inn is away from the bustle of downtown, but close enough to walk. We had a wonderful time and highly recommend a stay at Chiltern Inn.
