A friendly, family run inn. Very typical of old Maine style with cute wallpaper, wood floors, and old Maine charm. If you are looking for modern luxury this isn’t for you. However, if you want a lovely inn with a ton of charm and a great price on the island, then you won’t find better than the Harbourside. The bedroom was big with a very comfortable bed and lovely bed linens. It’s an easy walk to Northeast Harbor with excellent shopping and restaurants.

I cannot recommend Harbourside Inn enough! It’s on Northeast Harbor, which is absolutely stunning. We were minutes away from multiple mountains in the National Acadia Park and some of the best seafood I’ve ever had. The inn’s parking lot was full our entire stay, but other than the occasional friendly guest encounter at the breakfast porch (which is so cute) we had no idea! Our room had a private bathroom and the room was absolutely precious. The Inn has an incredible charm and we were smitten with it.

Quiet and relaxing.

We were visiting the Bar Harbor area and the Inn is in a nice quiet area on the island. The rooms were cleaned daily and the staff was accommodating. When we arrived it was all fully humid and our host brought in an air conditioner after hours. If we decide to stay again we’ll definitely stay at Harbourside Inn. Breakfast is coffee , tea and a choice of fruit and breakfast bars. There is an breakfast porch where you can meet other travelers.

Such a treat but also low key in a way we appreciated. Walking distance to downtown Northeast Harbor and a few carriage hikes. Room on third floor was lovely - firm beds if that’s your thing! Grounds were beautiful!
