Miss Evelyn and Miss Dan were outstanding hosts. They have been in the area for a while and they know all the nice little quiet spots to visit and beat the hustle and bustle of Bar Harbor.

This nostalgic inn was the perfect place to stay for our trip to Acadia with our pup. The staff was friendly and welcoming, the continental breakfast was appreciated, and the store next door with the delicious clam chowder rounded out the experience.

We stayed at Otter Creek Inn for 3 nights while visiting Acadia National Park. The inn was clean, quiet, and comfortable, with an easy check-in process. Breakfast was a nice plus, and the location made it convenient for exploring the park. Acadia itself was absolutely beautiful, and this was a good base for our trip.

Perfect little getaway

Our girl's trip brought us to this adorable Inn for 3 nights. This is obviously an older building, but it has so much charm! There was comfortable wicker furniture with cushions outside our door so we could enjoy the patio in the evening. The hotel also has a market that you can walk to that serves an AMAZING lobster mac & cheese! They also do fresh, steamed lobster dinners on demand for much cheaper than you will pay in Bar Harbor. The free continental breakfast included fresh baked muffins and a wide variety of flavored coffee creamers. This is a very rural area, but this inn is a quick 15 minute drive to Bar Harbor, or a 5 minute drive to Seal Harbor. My only complaint was that the room was a little stuffy at night (even with fans) because it was lacking A/C. But, I do know that the temperature was way hotter than normal during our visit. I am sure this is a very comfortable room in normal weather. Overall, we had a wonderful stay!

Quaint place to stay.

The Inn was cute and cozy, very home-like. Homemade muffins were great for breakfast. My only complaint was the beds are old innerspring mattresses. They were not the most comfortable to sleep on. There was no microwave or AC, but we were cool enough with fans.
