This is a lower priced motel in the Bar Harbor area. I have watched the upkeep and general condition of the property decline over the past few years. Also wireless service was nearly useless, a real aggravation when checking times or making reservations, or even to find local businesses and restaurants.

The location and the property was lovely. It was convenient to Acadia National Park, the park shuttle, and a few restaurants were within walking distance. But the room itself was very disappointing. There were holes in the wall, there were loose socket covers there it was a musty smell. It didn't seem as if you could lock the windows which opened easily. The shower faucet would not turn to allow me to take a shower. Which was funny considering it was Dripping constantly. I didn't discover the shower until the day I left as I was only there for a very short time. the bed was the least comfortable I've ever slept on

This is a nice small motel that is close to Bar Harbor. Well kept property and the rooms were great for my business stay and would not hesitate to have my family stay with me while on a vacation. Great room with fridge and coffee machine. Well stocked with towels and shower soaps. Anxious to go again and take my family.

As a solo traveler, I honestly don’t understand why this place has such a low rating. It was exactly what I needed for my trip. The bed was comfortable, the shower had great hot water after long days of hiking, and the staff was friendly and welcoming. I appreciated getting fresh towels every day since I was showering twice a day because of the heat and all the hiking. The motel was quiet at night but conveniently located close to everything in Acadia. If you’re looking for a clean, comfortable place to sleep while spending your days chasing sunrises, hiking trails, and catching sunsets, this is a great choice. I don’t need a $400-a-night resort when I’m out the door before 4 a.m. and back after dark. I would absolutely stay here again and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend it to other travelers.

The location was alright. The room was outdated. The bathroom had rust on the heating unit. The cleaning lady did a nice job with what she had to work with. There seem to have a problem with the septic system for the flush didn’t always flush good.When the room was booked it said the pool would be open for the season 2026. When we arrived for a long weekend for July 4th the pool was closed and stayed closed until the last afternoon we were there. It was in the 90’s every day. The air conditioning unit did work.

Very affordable stay near Acadia. The bed could use replacement (deep sunk in spot in middle) and oddly one outlet missing it's cover.
Ice is in the office, so be sure to grab during open hours.
The showers worked well, but could be picky to get and hold temperature.
It was welcoming, though.

The room is very simple with basic amenities-microwave, mini-fridge. I didn't get to see what else they have since I spent my entire day at Acadia NP. The room however, has a musky odor. It needs some disinfectant or air freshener to eliminate odors that may have been left by a previous guest or accumulated over the years. For the price, at least they offer simple breakfast, especially the area doesn't have much place to eat besides a few barbecue restaurants.

All you need cozy and quiet

We stayed here for 3 nights. It is a little old BUT all you need. My teenage son loved he had a separate space with door and queen bed. My husband and I loved having a king size bed. Housekeeping came every day. There’s a microwave and mini fridge and a coffee maker. Acadia is super close about 10 min drive and so is Bar Harbor. Restaurants for breakfast can get expensive (no fast food chains around) so we went to the local supermarket about 10 min away and got some essentials which saved us a lot of money. Beds were comfy and location is just so peaceful!! Recommend!

TV didn't work, no wifi password was evident, and the office was locked within minutes of our check-in. There was an ice bucket in the room, but no ice machine evident-must have been in the office.
The bathroom sink, hot water had only a trickle of hot water. Shower had excellent pressure and worked well.
We would consider staying again, but would check out the room and its features and report them quickly to the front desk, before departing for dinner, as we did.
The office remained locked as we departed before 8am.
Suggest a phone number to be posted in the room for any issues that come up for what must be a staffing issue.
