We had a great stay and could not recommend this Inn more! It was so cute, well maintained with super cozy bed/bedding, a welcoming and comfortable common area and delicious breakfast. The staff are very friendly and though we only stayed one night it was wonderful and we hope to be back again!

Lovely stay in the quiet season.
Our stay at The Inn on Mount Desert was lovely. It is beautifully decorated, comfortable and the staff is helpful and friendly. The included breakfast was made to order from the days selections and the blueberry pancakes were delicious. The inn is within walking distance to many restaurants and the waterfront. We will be back!

Cute cozy stay
Went for a two day trip. Hiking and a cute date. Well worth the money. Walkable however, would recommend doing activities during the day.

Amazing place!
Room was comfortable and clean. Neighbors upstairs were noisy until after 0000, but that’s not the hotel’s fault. I’d recommend booking a top floor. Also don’t book by the entry door, it’s insulated but still noisy. Breakfast was BNB quality.

This is the perfect place for a family getaway. Acadia National Park is a short drive away. There’s a pool table and plenty of board games to keep you entertained in the evenings. Breakfast is made to order, and everyone is welcoming.
