The view out the windows is breathtaking, while the food and service are just as impressive. We had a small party and started with tasty fried calamari and cheese curds. Local Bangor Beer's Disco Sasquatch and Orono Brewing's Wicked Blueberry Ale were wonderful, along with Blueberry Soda. 3 of us had the delicious Lobster Rolls because it was our first visit to Maine, and that was a "requirement", lol. The others had the steak and cheese sandwich and the fried haddock meals. They were wonderful too. Our server, Ceanna, took fantastic care of all of us, and deserves a raise. I even made sure to buy a t shirt before I left. We will surely be back when we return to this heavenly place on earth.

After a day in Arcadia National Park, we saw Trenton Bridge Lobster pound as we were driving home,…read moresaw bunch of lobster pots outside with steam coming out of it and we knew we had to stop by and oh boy we sure glad we did. We ordered crab cakes, 2 large whole lobster, clam chowders, cocktail shrimp, blueberry pie and ice cream. Crab cakes- The crab cakes were the best crab cakes I have ever eaten in my life. TONS of crab in the crab cakes, not just bread. I had to saver each bite. The owner, she told us she is the one who makes the crab cakes every day. Cocktail shrimp and clam chowder- both were ok, nothing special, I wouldn't order it again. 2 Whole Lobsters- Both lobsters weighed in a total of 5lbs all together. Oh man, the boiled lobsters were absolutely amazing and delicious. Tons of meat in the lobsters, great texture, firm and tender. Highly recommend getting a lobster. Blueberry pie and ice cream- To end off a great dinner, the blueberry and ice cream definitely hit the spot. Lots of blueberry, crust was good, and I love how the pie isn't too sweet. OVERALL, I was so happy we stopped and tried Trenton bridge lobster Pound. The staff were great, talked to the owner and she said Saturday was going to be the last day of the season, so we really got lucky stopping by on a Friday right before they were going to close for the season. I enjoyed the food so much, I even bought a hoodie to support, The hoodie is embroidered with there logo on the front. Thank you again for a wonder meal, and I will definitely come back!!

While searching for a last-minute 4-day weekend birthday trip - the timing seemed to work out to visit Bar Harbor and Acadia. I was here from 30 April - 03 May and loved it. Not everything was open, but enough was open that I was able to explore and see most of what I wanted in Acadia (Cadillac mountain opened ON 30 April so, we were able to drive to the top, park and walk around without a permit/pass before season starts in a few weeks. We hiked Beehive, Jordan Pond, Ocean Path, Homan's Trail and a few other short park and walk items. By far, my favorite was Beehive as it's just scary/steep enough to give you a thrill, gorgeous views. I also loved Homan's trail - easy and short, but beautiful rock work. The ranger also told me that one of the women who originally donated a ton of the land for Acadia and wanted to do so anonymously was last name Homan, so this is honor of her. And what a beautiful trail it is! The visitor's center is small but as always, friendly and helpful rangers who helped me prioritize my must-sees and map out the best use of time/driving to get to everything I wanted to do in two short days. Schooner Point lookout is also an easy/quick stop off before entering one of the park entrances - and a beautiful view of the ocean. Bar Harbor is charming and fun and welcoming and at that time in late April/early May - no waits for anything as season is just beginning. Can't wait to come back!

My partner had sauteed local scallops (described by her as amazing), a baked potato, cole slaw, and ice cream. Zero gluten reaction so no cross contamination. Excellent! My fish and chips were pretty good but I've had better fried haddock. I subbed onion rings for the fries. They were thin sliced, low batter, and very oniony in a desirable way. I liked the coleslaw, too. I finished with really good blueberry pie with ice cream. It was a good meal but taking care of my partner's issue tops all others and required that 5th star..

It has wonderful harbor views and is a short stroll to downtown shops and restaurants. We spent 3 glorious nights in the New Amsterdam Suite. The suite is quite simply huge with a fireplace in a large sitting room and separate bedroom (with a king size feather bed) plus a bathroom as large as an airplane hanger. The suite has two private porches and windows with spectacular views everywhere. While the structure is 140+ years old, it has modern and luxurious furnishings. The lounge is filled with jars of old-time candies. If you have a sweet tooth, this space is close to heaven on earth. As impressive as the inn is, it pales in comparison to the staff. They keep the inn spotless and running efficiently. Special shoutouts to Sara, Sam, and Hope. These ladies made our stay magical. Their attention to detail made it feel as if we were the only guests on the property. Our visit did have one negative and it was a BIG one. We had to leave!!!!

They man (whose name i forgot) waited for us to check in around 11:30. Yes, the furniture was outdated and there was a weird stuffy smell in the room, but the service was pleasant, free basic bagel & coffee breakfast and cheap and easy last minute booking 15 miles from Acadia.

Nothing is perfect, and so this hotel has just the right balance between comfort and affordability. The owners are also trying their best to make improvements on the room every season.

We should have touched base with the office beforehand and requested to be closer in proximity to each other, but we were informed that AI assigns the tents for the best, spread out experience. No worries, it's fairly well lit and you can bring your lights at night to walk around. Check in was simple. We were given a ton of information by everyone at the front desk. The tents are very large with electricity and hot water. The bathroom is very large with a double vanity. There are space heaters and blankets, t though it definitely was quite chilly our last night. There is a free breakfast, or you can pay for some upgraded items. If you're heading out early any day, you can grab items for the next day. All staff members were knowledgeable and friendly. We started lots of conversations and were directed many places we had not intended to go. We grabbed some dinner at their restaurant, and it was delicious! Everyone was satisfied! I have medication which has to be refrigerated, and we were provided with a dorm-size fridge at no extra expense. They came and set it up while we were at dinner. I never felt like my items were unsafe, even though there was no lock on the tents. We indulged in the hot tub one afternoon and took a polar plunge! There are a limited number of day packs to borrow, walking sticks, free firewood and fire starters, and just about anything you need. Our friend's luggage was delayed about 6 hours, and once it arrived at the desk, they carted it over to their tent for them. I really didn't know what to think when we booked this, but now that we are back home, and I am so grateful for this experience! Thank you!
