The Inn on Mount Desert
The room was clean and spacious, the bed was comfotable, the breakfast (made fresh!) was delicious, the snacks throughout the day were appreciated, and the staff was wonderful. The Inn is conveniently located and there was ample parking. It has a fantastic atmosphere. We hope to return soon.

Seasider Motel
The rooms were clean and as described! Walkable into town, but also only a 10/15 min drive to Acadia national park, great location! Would definitely come back.

We were. Ery comfortable in this hotel. Parking was great - very close to our room. It was pretty cool outside so we didn’t need air conditioning.
