I was pleasantly surprised by how nice the cabin was! I read the positive reviews and felt comfortable staying there but didn’t realize how spacious and homey the cabin would feel! The beds were super comfortable, having a washer and dryer in the cabin was a pleasant surprise, and the quietness of the entire resort area was fantastic. Super spread out. Renting canoes, kayaks, and paddle boards was really easy. The cabin got a little warm during the day but the three box fans were a big help.

The room was spacious, having a recently renovated kitchenette was nice to have--if we stayed longer, I'd definitely take advantage. The hotel is about 30m away from Acadia, and is located in a small strip mall area. Having food options, gas stations, a grocery store, and TJ Maxxx, etc. is all convenient. The bed was comfortable enough, bathroom was clean and recently updated. My only comfort issues was the pillows and the AC. Despite having 3 of them, they were all lumpy with no support. That did affect my sleep. The AC was loud at night and would make a rattling sound despite our best efforts to stop it. A newer TV with streaming options would be nice. All in all, a good option if you need a place to crash after a long day in Acadia.
