Perfect little getaway

Our girl's trip brought us to this adorable Inn for 3 nights. This is obviously an older building, but it has so much charm! There was comfortable wicker furniture with cushions outside our door so we could enjoy the patio in the evening. The hotel also has a market that you can walk to that serves an AMAZING lobster mac & cheese! They also do fresh, steamed lobster dinners on demand for much cheaper than you will pay in Bar Harbor. The free continental breakfast included fresh baked muffins and a wide variety of flavored coffee creamers. This is a very rural area, but this inn is a quick 15 minute drive to Bar Harbor, or a 5 minute drive to Seal Harbor. My only complaint was that the room was a little stuffy at night (even with fans) because it was lacking A/C. But, I do know that the temperature was way hotter than normal during our visit. I am sure this is a very comfortable room in normal weather. Overall, we had a wonderful stay!

Quaint place to stay.

The Inn was cute and cozy, very home-like. Homemade muffins were great for breakfast. My only complaint was the beds are old innerspring mattresses. They were not the most comfortable to sleep on. There was no microwave or AC, but we were cool enough with fans.

Clean, quiet property in a convenient location away from the crowds in Bar Harbor but convenient to everywhere. I wish the room had A/C since it was July. The mattress is very very soft.

Nice little place, we enjoyed our stay, convenient location & easy to get to. Small shower but you could get the job done, the beds could use an upgrade on the mattress but it wasn’t a deal breaker, breakfast was more than adequate to get you to lunch, I myself enjoyed it, will definitely be back to spend more time at Otter Creek!!!!!!

A wonderful experience. Rooms were well kept. The continental breakfast was fine. The staff was helpful and informative in giving suggestions for sites and activities. If we go to Acadia and Bar Harbor again, Otter Creek Inn will be our first choice for a place to stay.
