This is such a quaint motel straight out of the 1950s. What we were most impressed with was how clean it is. White grout in bathroom was either brand new or they have a secret to cleaning grout that I have not discovered. We stayed here the day before going to Bar Harbor for two days. Nice quiet place before the busyness of Bar Harbor. The owners have done a great job with this property.

Fresh and clean.
The Bucksport Inn was obviously recently remodeled. The bathroom sparkled and the walls were freshly painted. The bed was very comfortable. A Hannaford grocery store is just a little way down the road across the busy street. Traffic generally respected the crossing light across from Hannaford so we didn't have any issue walking there. The refrigerator, coffee maker and microwave were handy for making breakfast. There is a paved walkway near Hannaford that goes under the bridge where we enjoyed morning and evening walks along the river with nice views of the bridge and Ft. Knox. Highly recommend!

For starters, the girl that checked me in was so kind. Maybe it's a Maine thing, but she was so friendly and helpful. It's a motel, yes. We had a pet friendly room but you'd never know it. Super clean. Small but had everything we needed for a short stay. Nice, spacious area for dog walking and enjoying the outdoors. Less than an hour from Bar Harbor so location was excellent. Dunkin right next door (also a big plus). I'd definitely recommend, especially if you're traveling with a large dog.
