Wonderful stay here! The place is beautiful and in a perfect location very close to everything in town. Chris, the innkeeper, is a gem of a person with great local recommendations. The breakfast is also amazing and the hotel had lots of little touches, like snacks and desserts in the afternoon, to make it that much more inviting. Highly recommend!!

This is a beautifully decorated and comfortable BnB in a historic manor house. Walkable location on the edge of town center, near harbor and 3 blocks from Village Green and Acadia shuttle base . The owner and staff are welcoming and very helpful while the breakfast choices were always delicious. Afternoon live music in garden was a relaxing touch. Our room was spacious and bed comfortable. Well worth price!

This is a charming place to stay in the picturesque Bar Harbor area. We were there for four nights. The room was fantastic, clean, spacious, and the bed was very comfortable. The real winning touches here are the little details and efforts made by the staff. A fireplace that often has a welcoming fire, tea time complimentary cakes and punch, scrumptious breakfasts, and an occasional offer of live music out on the grounds. I would recommend this place for anyone who is hoping to catch that B & B/independent old inn kind of vibe during their stay in Bar Harbor.
