The rooms were clean, spacious, and so beautiful. We loved being so close to Acadia National Park for hiking. We loved being able to walk to restaurants and the harbor each night for dinner.

Trisha United States of America

it was a pleasant old house. The hosts were very nice. it was within a mile of downtown.

Darris United States of America

Great and helpful hosts, delicious breakfast, “fun” place to stay.

Jim United States of America

An absolutely beautiful home! Lovely, clean, comfortable!

Toni United States of America

We absolutely loved the Chiltern Inn. Joan and Dan were the most gracious hoasts. We had the most delicious breakfast in our room every morning. The room was beautiful and clean. Highly recommend. We will be back!!

Dana United States of America

Terrific vegetarian omelette for breakfast (Joan's recipe). Dan was very generous with his time, helping us put together the optimum itinerary to visit Acadia in 3 days! Location was terrific, walking distance to Bar Harbor Main Street, yet in a quiet residential area with parking.

Arthur United States of America

The hosts, Joan and Dan, were very warm, welcoming, friendly, and helpful. Breakfast was delicious! Liked that the location was far from the busy section of Main Street and yet close enough to walk to. Comfy B&B: wish we could have spent more time in the common areas.

Kao United States of America

Beautiful setting and decor in North Apartment of Carriage House, loved wine and cheese with evening entertainment by host, extra futon bed comfortable for a couple with bedding provided, kitchen facilities useful, great location in Bar Harbor with very convenient entrance to Acadia NP following tips from our host!!

Mary United States of America

The property is located less than mile (easy walk) to the harbor, with ample parking. We rented the apartment unit which is very comfortable and spacious. Kitchen is well appointed.

Margo United States of America

We loved everything about our stay here! We arrived to an envelope with a warm welcome letter and key to our lovely room! We were on the upper floor and arrived during the wine and cheese hour - what a treat after a several hour drive. The entire inn is spotless, our bed was super comfortable, room was spacious and the bathroom shower was amazing. The innkeepers offered to provide us with many ideas of where to visit in Acadia Park. They seem to know every trail in the park! The breakfast was delivered to our door - I wish I knew how to attach a picture. I have never seen such beautiful blueberry pancakes - picture perfect and delicious with real maple syrup. There are many sitting areas and we were welcome to enjoy them after check out as we were waiting out a rain storm.
