Top Naturalist's Notebook Hotel Reviews

Kimball Terrace Inn Northeast Harbor

10/10 Excellent

"Very nice room although a bit dated. Very clean. Adjacent restaurant (not affiliated) excellent."

Comfortable Suite in Downtown Northeast Harbor w/ WiFi & AC - Walk to the Water

10/10 Excellent

"Very convenient location in a super cute town. Close to Acadia National Park and other areas. We were there at the tail end of the season so it was pretty quiet, but we enjoyed that aspect. The suite had everything we needed for our stay."

Bar Harbor Home Near Everything

10/10 Excellent

"The House was an awesome place. The 3 floors and bedrooms made the place comfortable for the amount of people we had. Kitchen was well furnished and had most everything we needed. Location to Acadia and the town was perfect so trips to either were very manageable."

Bunkers Cove Cottage

8/10 Good

"This is a beautiful property and such a fun and interesting experience as well. The host was great and got back to me instantly whenever I reached out. I only wished it was clear in the description that it is not heated, but offers space heaters ans a nice fireplace instead. We arrived too late to start a fire and didn't know the heaters were available, or where to find them, so the first night was quite chilly. It was all part of the adventure of staying in a remote location like this though and we made many fun lifelong memories while here. I would definitely recommend it to anyone looking for the same experience!"

Harbourside Inn

10/10 Excellent

"It was a great place and will definitely go back again. Very quiet and relaxing place with amazing views."

Quiet oasis across the street from Acadia and just steps from the harbor

10/10 Excellent

"This was the perfect place for our family. Our three daughters shared one room, and my wife and I the other. There is access to the bathroom from both rooms. The living room was comfortable to watch our Dawgs beat the Crimson Tide during our stay. Two minute drive to Seal Harbor beach, and five minute drive to Jordan Pond. Outstanding experience!"

Newly Updated Island Cottage - Walk to the Beach & Acadia National Park

10/10 Excellent

"We had a wonderful stay in Acadia thanks to Jenny's hospitality and her beautiful home in Seal Harbor. The property was exactly as listed, with some extra touches we absolutely loved. The living room and kids' bedroom were stocked with books and games that made our cozy evenings in so enjoyable. The towels and toiletries provided were very nice, and it was especially thoughtful that beach towels were on hand for beach adventures. The sweet welcome note waiting for us on arrival was the perfect finishing touch. We can't wait to come back!"

2 BR Next to Beach & Park Entrance! [The Notebook]

10/10 Excellent

"Feedback:Loved the location. Convenient to the beach and bike rental shop. Easy drive to Bar Harbor.The kitchen is well equipped for quick meals, but there is no dishwasher. Small Safety issue - A light is needed by the front door near the entrance so that the dark staircase can be safely navigated at dark. It was hard to see.Bathroom:Towel bar kept falling apart. One end bracket was very loose and needed to be re attached. The plumbing fixture over the sink was too large, A nice design but such a large size fixture over the sink made it hard to use the sink.Main bedroom:The top dresser drawer is broken. Suggest they invest in some sturdier furniture.The deck is not accessible from the unit. You have to exit the unit downstairs walk to the rear of the unit and climb a flight of stairs to access the deck. By and large, I really liked our little abode!"

2 BR Apt Walkable to inside Park! [Acadia Outpost]

10/10 Excellent

"Very convenient to Acadia and Bar Harbor. Easy in and out. Nice park for picnic lunch very close by."
