Loved by Island Place guests
"We could park right in front of our room so the many trips back to our car were quick and easy."
"The location cannot be beat as you are walking distance to downtown and the Island Explorer buses that take you into Arcadia are free!"
"Location was perfect to take a quick walk to town for shopping, food and activities without having to pay for parking in the main part of town."

Its walkable location near downtown Bar Harbor avoids the heaviest traffic while still keeping restaurants and shops accessible. I think the combination of clean, updated rooms with practical perks like drive-up parking makes it a solid choice.”
