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 hotel, we would stay there again. The only suggestion would be to add a light at the entrance of the driveway - it's hard to see at night and the way the driveway is made there is a risk to hit the curb. Other than that it was great! Not right in Bar Harbor, so you have to pay for parking when you go to town, but it makes the hotel quieter :)

Absolutely Stunning!!
First time in Maine and road tripping from Ontario. We chose to stay here in a whim and have absolutely no regrets. The check-in process was very quick and the cottage was so beautiful. Lots of amenities on the property, including picnic areas and fire pits/firewood for private use. Easy to find and very close to Bar Harbor and Acadia National Park. We would definitely return if ever in Maine again… this place deserves nothing less than 5 stars!

The location of this motel was favourable to our liking. Close to all the action , but far enough to be private and peaceful. Very clean and well appointed accommodation. Great communication with staff. We would love to come back some day
