Guests can explore Acadia National Park, hike over 120 miles of trails, bike on carriage roads, or take a carriage ride (reservations required). The Jordan Pond House Nature Trail leads to popovers and tea at the restaurant. The Wild Gardens of Acadia are also nearby.
“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.”
