"Great stay for a weekend hiking getaway with friends! The house was clean and nicely renovated. The beds were comfortable and the AC in all the upstairs bedrooms were great for cooling the house. The free snacks and coffee were a delightful surprise! There was easy car access to the main entrance to Acadia. The neighborhood was quiet and we enjoyed the evenings at the fire pit. It’s definitely a go-to place for our group the next time we are at Acadia!"

"The location was amazing and the house was perfect! The property has everything you could need...EVERYTHING. We explored so many great spots all over Acadia/Bar Harbor/ and all the other Harbors! Centrally located, we traveled only 20ish minutes tops! The best part of the stay was our morning swims in the sun. The dock is stones throw from the deck.

Top Mount Desert Hotel Reviews

Stone Park

10/10 Excellent

"Excellent stay! Very warm and cozy suite rooms. Spacious and luxury. Better than small hotel rooms. The property has all carpeted floors and clean gym and water facilities."

Holiday Inn Resort Bar Harbor - Acadia Natl Park by IHG

10/10 Excellent

"We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the resort. It was everything we imagined it to be and more. The location, spacious property, lush grass areas, ocean views, sunrises, dining, pleasant staff and close to Acadia National Park. We could not ask for a more awesome experience. We absolutely LOVED the resort and will definitely return if we are ever in Maine again. I highly recommend the stay. Everyone is so friendly - staff and guests included. It is dog friendly and our fur babies had a wonderful time waling throughout the property."

Seasider Motel

8/10 Good

"The location was convenient for visiting Acadia National Park, and there was ample free parking. Downtown is walkable from the motel. Staff was friendly. The room was spacious but could have been a little cleaner. I found a pill on the floor, for example, and the floor was a bit gritty. Breakfast options were limited, but we appreciated being offered complimentary grab and go snacks and coffee."

Main Street Motel

10/10 Excellent

"My husband and stayed at the Main Street Motel over Labor Day weekend and it was a great location walking distance to all the shops and restaurants we loved the parking right at the motel, we enjoyed the snacks, tea and coffee they had in the quant lobby the staff was very helpful our room was very clean and comfortable.We would stay here again."
