We loved our stay! Old school charm with amazing views! We loved the location because we could easily get to the park and downtown Bar Harbor but without the crowds of downtown. Loved Bill the piano player at night!

The property was in a good area, close enough to walk to do activities or food, easy transportation on Island Explorer. Very clean and friendly staff. It would be nice to have better food options at the property as Looking Glass is only open until 2. Other than that we enjoyed our time.
