Amazing beautiful little cabin with everything we needed. A ways outside of Bar Harbor proper, we ended up taking rides on the evening we wanted to have a drink in town. Beautiful garden, fire pit and confortable outside furniture. We gathered with other guest one night on the wind down and that was a nice perk we didnt expect. The traffic to Cadillac mtn in the morning is a buzz at 5 am to catch the sunrise. Pretty loud with windows open. Overall, this was a great place to stay

Great base for exploring Acadia National Park and Bar Harbor. Parking outside the room. Fridge and coffee making facilities in the room. We appreciated the outdoor grill and picnic tables. We had no problem finding all day parking in Bar Harbor when we went on a couple of cruises but we were there early in the morning.

Acadia motel with down home comfort

We enjoyed our stay at Hanscom’s Cottages. It was comfy, cozy, and a little outdoorsy. We took advantage of their well supplied campfire sites. I just wish they had small s’mores kits to purchase.

Great little cabin has everything you need for a short stay. We walked around the area and found a great sunset spot on the water. There are outdoor activities, grills and tables for dining. We loved our experience.
