We had a great stay

I brought my 2 young children and the staff were friendly and very helpful, especially our check in. We stayed 2 nights. The room and bathroom were clean. We appreciated the fridge and microwave with kids traveling. We enjoyed the pool table one afternoon. It is so close to everything. The breakfast is fresh made and it is option A or option B and it changed each day. Delicious and fine for me, my kids are picky, but I was prepared for that (fridge again). The beds were much softer than I like, but that's my issue.

Great vacation stay

Had a great stay at this inn. The inn was absolutely spotless from the common area to the rooms! The Breakfast each morning was amazing, a perfect start before hitting the trails of Acadia. The front desk ladies were beyond helpful especially when I made a error and cutting my reservation a day short They were able to find me a room though they were about at capacity! I would not hesitate to highly recommend this inn to friends and family.
