This hotel was convenient to spend time in Acadia. The furnishings were very minimal with no framed art at all, no lamp for the bedside, very much in need of painting to clean up the walls. I could hear a man staying in a room adjacent to mine as he snored all night long, so the walls are thin. Fortunately, I had earplugs or I wouldn't have been able to sleep myself. The staff in the office are very friendly and helpful. I was told I should have let them know about the guy and I could have moved.

Getting to the National park was easy, however we did see many options along the route that might have been closer.
It served its purpose and the staff was friendly. The room needed a bigger trash can, the bathroom window was ajar and we could not close it, and the lighting options in the room were limiting….too bright with the overhead, too dim with just one lamp

Nice and Quiet

I am one who just wants a clean bed, quiet people staying next to me and a clean bathroom. I don't believe that should cost $300 just for 1 night. So I spent time looking all around the area I was vacationing in and found this place. It was clean, Quiet and the bathroom was clean. It is minutes from Ellsworth and easy to find. I was surprised that check out is 10am unless previously asked for a later time. And fall is the time for lady bugs so there were several in my room. Friendly check in. Drop off box for keys. Would stay again but would ask for a room with no stairs to climb for my bad knees. Enjoyed my stay

For the price, it provided a clean place to sleep with adequate amenities that was located close to many popular destinations such as the national park and bar harbor. The facility does appear run and worn down but was adequate and clean. We did not spend much time at the facility except to sleep and shower. They do not have regular room service which helps them save in cost. Overall, we liked the low cost and having a clean place to stay.

We really liked this place. The amenities were great (coffee in room, iron and blow dryer, fridge, microwave).
Our only complaint was that the room was VERY DARK. There was no overhead lighting, and two lamps with small wattage bulbs. It felt gloomy and I needed a flashlight to find things in my suitcase. Add lighting, the place is terrific!

The room was good. There were some things that needed repaired and housekeeping not provided unless requested. We took towels to office to get replaced and office did not open till 9 and closed at 7. Requested the room to be vacuumed but did not happen. Second request I just requested a broom and swept floor myself. Fireplace installed on wall did not work. Refrigerator installed funny and wobbled. Addtional coffee for room had to be retrived from office. Not a fan of 10am check out and fee for late checkout unreasonable in my opinion

The photos look nothing like the real room

The photos on the website or ok nothing like what the rooms look like in person. Our door would not shut fully which allowed bugs to come in and it was so humid and gross in the room. It smelled moldy and everything was damped due to the door not t able to shut fully. The coffee was awful and the room was not cleaned. Will stay somewhere else next time.

At first, our stay wasn’t great. The walls were extremely thin, so we could clearly hear our neighbors and even smell the food they were cooking (to the point where our clothes reeked like it for days). On top of that, our window was broken. After communicating to the front desk, we were moved to a room without neighbors, a comfier bed, and it felt much cleaner overall. It left me wondering why we were given the first room at all when there were better options available.

I saw several reviews knocking this place. It's not a Hilton, it's a nice roadside motel. I saw 1 spider, no roaches or drug addicts in the parking lot. What i did observe, was a place that was reasonable priced, central to what i needed. Staff was friendly, polite, and my room was very clean (just older facility). I would hesitate to stay here again if i ever came back to Acadia.

This place was decent. Walmart, gas stations and food places nearby. Not too far from Acadia National Park. Staff was helpful for a late check in. Only issue we had was noise from people standing outside near the stairs talking in the morning and at night. At night a group of guys stood around the stairs in the way, with beer bottles, while we tried to go up the stairs with our hands full.

The receptionist was very friendly. We had no complaints with at all. What we did not like was the inaccurate representation of the property. We paid for 2 days and left after 1 and booked somewhere else. We didn't feel comfortable having an ajoining door to a random room. The bathroom was falling apart. The toilet didn'r flush right. Bug bug and more bug flew in the room when we tried to get one out. I took a shower and ant drowned in the tub. The bedspreads loooked dingy. The box spring was covered but stained. The picrures displayed on the list werem't accurate.

Overall, a great price for a clean room and a great shower. Exactly as expected, no frills but everything worked and enjoyed the stay. I did not appreciate the no room service daily, something if you wish to do is more like home, but not at all like staying in a motel. I don’t mind this type of motel service, but it shouldn’t be instituted without telling the customer. Probably was in the fine print, but I didn’t see it. Overall, I would stay here again.

The main complaint is that the shower faucet was altered so that you could not get much hot water. There's nothing worse than coming back from Acadia when you are damp and chilly and having the inability to take a hot shower. If we jad hot water, would ja e given a 4 out of 5 stars.

The pictures on the website are definitely misleading, our room was nothing like what they are showing, they may have some updated rooms but mine was not. The walls are real thin so you can hear the conversations going on in the room next door.

29F solo traveler, felt safe. I stayed here for 3 nights in a double room with kitchenette. I enjoyed my stay, the beds were comfortable, staff was friendly, and parking convenient. No breakfast at this time, but they have some to-go snacks after 9AM. I would add a full-body mirror to the room but other than that I was satisfied with the room. 30min drive from Acadia and close to supermarkets, dining options, and gas stations.

BASIC ROOM

My boyfriend and our friends traveled up the East Coast for a fun vacation. Part of our trip was to go to Bar Harbor ME. During our search for a place to stay we came across White Birches. We thought it would be a nice place to stay outside of Bar Harbor. We were not impressed. It was clean and the bed was comfortable; however, the faucet in the tub leaked and you had to muscle it on and off, there was no mirror in the sleeping area, and the rooms need to be updated. I would not stay here again.

This was a nice affordable option for us to visit Acadia. They are making updates to the property. The room was clean and beds comfy. We liked the fridge and microwave in the room so we could make some of our meals. Walmart was a 4 minute drive away. Staff was friendly and helpful. Plenty of parking and it was pretty quiet while we were there.

We truly enjoyed our stay at White Birches. The receptionist was very friendly and had coffee and snacks available every day we were there. The room was exceptionally clean and neat. Just what a person needs when he is traveling. The room itself was also very quiet. Not much traffic, etc. Our dog loved all the grass in front of the units. I also noted that those with dogs cleaned up after their dogs went to the potty. It would have been nice to have available places to easily plug in our phones, computers, etc. to charge them. We had to make a trip to Walmart to buy the plugs we needed to do that.

Good stay at the White birches

Nice room with refrigerator and microwave. There was no carpet and gravel and dirt from our shoes got on the floor. If you are there longer than a day or two, get a cheap broom. There is a coffee maker but no refill on coffee supply so we used it to make hot water and used Starbuck via packets. Also, there is no laundry area.
