Very quiet cabin, perfect for 5-6 people to spend a long weekend or even a week. Although Acadia is a good 50 minute away, I would not hesitate to stay here if visiting Bar Harbor region again.
Stunning view and nice picnic tables to sit. Would have been nice to have a fire in the fire pit but it was filled with water and there were mosquitoes swarming the Adirondack chairs.
Also it was difficult to sit in other chairs provided bc they were soaked from rain.
On the plus side; Fantastic view. Comfortable bed.
On the minus side; Internet in Room 8 was non-usable due to inadequate signal.
Had to carry bags up steep stairs - no desk person to help.
Ice not available
No TV in room or common area.
No small fridge in room.
Only 2 bath towels provided for 2 people on 2 night stay.
Very small bathroom.
Not well soundproofed.
No hair dryer.
Not worth the price that we paid.
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this rustic but very comfortable lodge. Appreciated the informative texts, the nice continental breakfast, and the comfortable bed. The view from the terrace is majestic! Hunter was very helpful and friendly.
The best view with nice cozy room.Had a great stay and would love to come back .
Don is easy and friendly to talk to , he made sure we get to our room safely and easily for a late check in .
It was an amazing stay nestled in the woods of Maine. It had a beautiful overlook, unfortunately it was cloudy the 2 nights we stayed there and we didn’t get to see the beautiful sunsets.
The view from the inn and cabins was beautiful. The owner/staff couldn’t be nicer. The cabins are not large but were absolutely what we were looking for. If you’re looking for a nice quiet/peaceful getaway then I’d highly recommend checking out the Bluff House Inn. Only thing to know in advance is that the inn is located a decent drive (~40 mins) away from Acadia and Bar Harbor area if you are looking to do that, but is very close to the Schoodic side of Acadia.
