“I think this inn's location just off Main Street hits a sweet spot, providing easy access to Bar Harbor's attractions while retaining a sense of quiet seclusion; the homemade breakfasts also struck me as a real advantage. I especially appreciate the Victorian charm and individual touches; it seems an ideal base for couples eager to explore Acadia. I believe it's a very intimate and comfortable choice.”
