This is a lovely hotel. The reception staff is extremely nice and caring. The rooms are wonderful. The Breakfast is great with a wide selection. The location can not be beat with such a close proximity to the main Bar Harbor Streets. There is a pool and hot tub and very importantly there is parking!
We wished we could have stayed longer as we liked the place.

Next time we will try to come back during the high season as the area was getting ready for the spring and therefore not all shops yet re-open.
But more important for our trip (Eastern 2024) it was not far from the Acadia park.

We stayed in Southwest Harbor because it was the calmer side of the island. We spent most of our time in Acadia and Bar Harbor which was very busy with lots of people so having a calm place to stay and regroup was perfect for us. There was a coffee shop with delightful pastries and Ice cream place nearby. Thurston's lobster pound is where to go for a great experience, it was in Bass Harbor not to far from place of stay.

It was so nice to be on the "quiet" side of the island! Everything was an easy drive or walk from our inn. Everyone whom we met was outgoing and friendly. The restaurant choices were wonderful - we would definitely stay in Southwest again!

Southwest Harbor is a quiet, scenic town with a picturesque harbor. We also took the ferry to Little Cranberry Island with rented bikes. The island was worth the trip, with a nice art gallery about 10 blocks from a good restaurant on a pier. I probably wouldn’t rent the bikes again just for the island biking as we did; the island is too small to get far. However, if you are using them for the carriage road in the park as well, it would be a great double-up.

I definitely recommend renting this house. It’s very clean and located very close to Acadia and Bar Harbor. The property manager answered my phone call on the first ring when I got the door PIN number wrong. I mistakenly used the booking site pin number not the one he sends in his greeting email so remember to refer to it. I stayed August 9-13 2024 and discussed it with my family and rebooked for next August 2025 already.
We loved staying here in the quiet town of Southwest Harbor away from the very busy Bar Harbor but close enough for a quick drive and site seeing. Checkin/checkout was very easy. And we ate at the little restaurant below the inn. The inn was located in the center of town on main street with plenty of parking in the lot a couple doors down. We would definitely stay again.
The staff: so helpful and interactive. Close to the water and harbor. Easy walking distance to harbor and “downtown” Southwest Harbor. Quiet. Hearty breakfast in main house.
