Nice, quiet hotel that met our needs for visiting Acadia NP which was about 15 minutes away. Reasonably priced and across from the very best lobster pound around. Dining choices otherwise pretty limited nearby. Found a good breakfast place about a mile away. Nice view on one side. Would definitely recommend this place.

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.

Value for the money. It’s not five-star, not even 4, but it suited our need for a 3-night stay, and it is worth the savings compared to other rentals in the area. It is close to everything in Bar Harbor, all within short driving distance. Staff are friendly and very helpful.

The person working in the office was really a delight to speak to. The room was clean and the beds were nice. The condition of the room probably could use some attention, but it was balanced by the price compared to the other options in the area.

Give it a try.

Although apparently, in the past, this place has received poor ratings, they have recently renovated, and it is very good. The front desk staff and the other staff were very friendly.
