Lovely property, great location with walking access to all of Bar Harbor. Parking in Bar Harbor is very hard, so having a local lodge was terrific.

Coastal Maine
We spent a week vacationing along the coast of Maine. We stayed in B+Bs along the way. This property was in a good location in the heart of town. The property was old and had minimal staff and services - all to be expected with a mid-priced B+B. It was a good value for the money and we enjoyed our stay. PS - Maine’s coast is amazing and we had a great vacation in Kennebunkport, Camden and Bar Harbor!
