My fiance and I stayed here during the marathon weekend, so we could experience the town and still be close to Acadia Park. We spent the days in the park, and came back to the B&B in the evenings. We were able to walk to dinner both nights, and found fantastic restaurants within a few blocks. We stayed in the Churchill room with the fireplace and used it both nights-it made for a very cozy stay! The owners are very welcoming and made you feel right at home.

Great location in a quiet street but within a few minutes walk of the harbour, restaurants and shops. The inn also has ample parking, something which is at a premium in Bar Harbour. We stayed 4 nights in the Canterbury Court room, this was large and comfortable.
Breakfasts were excellent, with different courses each morning. We had our own dietary requirements, and also observed how effortlessly they catered for everyones needs. Breakfast was held at a communal table and it was noted how many of the guests were repeat visitors.
The inn keepers gave great advice on restaurants and things to do in Bar Harbour including spending time discussing the hiking available in Acadia National Park.
We would definitely recommend this inn to anyone staying in Bar Harbour.

we stayed for 2 nights in the romeo & juliet room, i believe its the biggest room in the house. it was very nice and comfortable, very big with a huge bed and 2 comfy chairs, table etc. the ensuite bathroom had a seperate jacuzzi bath & shower. i liked the way they left out bath scents for the tub, along with standard toiletries. i also thought that the free samples on the dresser from local stores was a lovely touch (choc coated blueberries and mini oil & vinegar set). we slept very well, only needed the car for our trip to Acadia (you can walk easily round town from the B&B), breakfast was nice & plentiful, afternoon tea was left our if you were around the B&B at 4-5pm (or so). susan also lent us a walking book for Acadia, which was useful. we decided to do the beehive, a pretty scary but fun climb / scramble aided by metal rungs at the really steep bits. we would definitly recommend Hearthside B&B.

A perfect place to stay in Bar Harbor. Just park your car and leave it. You can walk to everything from here, including to the free buses into Acadia National Park and other areas around the city. A wonderful home full of interesting things. We took the room upstairs with a private bath down the hall a bit. It worked out great for us.

We appreciated the breakfasts cooked to order and shared with other guests around the dining room table. Also the afternoon baked snacks and pink lemonade.

We really enjoyed our stay.
