Two-night stay. Actually, thought this was located in Bar Harbor but as it turned out preferred Prospect Harbor! Quaint and relaxing. Friendly hosts and wonderful breakfast. Just enough to start your day! We had Sarah's room and found the room size just perfect, and the bed was very comfortable.

Gordon, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Overall, the state was nice. A nice Gal greeted us on our arrival. The room was cute and pleasant however no window shade over the bathroom window, no garbage can to be found and a shelf above the bathroom sink made using the sink quite challenging. Breakfast in the morning was great.

Great place to stay at Perfect Harbor

This is a nice B&B if you decide to stay on Perfect Harbor during your Acadia visit. The host is very friendly and accomodating, ensuring you have a pleasant stay. Breakfast was fresh and hot. You can see the lighthouse right from the porch.

Everything was fantastic!!!! The room was even nicer than the pictures, and we had an absolutely delicious breakfast every morning. Wouldn’t stay anywhere else! It’s a bit farther from Bar Harbor but absolutely worth the drive.
