The cabin was great. The view was beautiful! Weather was very good. Couldn't have asked for better accommodations!
Carol A, 7-night trip

8/10 Very good

Ocean view ( from far ) but still beautiful - nice cabins, everything included - BUT it said breakfast included when I booked from hotel.com , after I booked I was sent a note that there was no breakfast at the time of year I was going. I was a bit upset because I booked it to have breakfast included - all in all a good stay

Great place to get away

Quiet clean cabins away from the crowds of Acadia. Close to several restaurants and good hiking trails. About an hour away from the main part of the park- and its crowds. Very comfortable.

We had a beautiful cabin for a few days and it felt like you weren’t even on this planet with the views and the comfort!!

The view

Well, its the view ....amazing. staying here is all about nature but if you want a restaurant be prepared to drive at least a half hour and if its a Monday or Tuesday, well you can fast. We were in the chickadee room. Its large, comfy beds and sofa. Small bathroom. The walls are thin and the people upstairs you hear every word and every footstep. The breakfast is critical as there is nothing else around. But after a couple of days of bagels and muffins you want some real hot breakfast food. Its pricey, but then the Bar Harbor area is all about freeing you from your money. You will enjoy your stay, we did.

Perfect 10 of 10

What a perfect little cabin perfectly located for sunsets over the waters of Acadia. Especially nice was the informational texts about the stay. Secret spots to see wildlife, sunsets, cliffs, etc…. We will return again. Located in Schoodic portion of Acadia (much less crowded than Bar Harbor side).
