"The staff at the inn are very friendly and helpful. And the breakfasts are amazing! We were there for 4 nights and we had a choice to pick from 2 different made to order hot breakfasts every day with fruit. Of course there is cereal, oatmeal, apples, bananas, coffee, orange juice, tea, etc. Plus the location is close to downtown for an easy walk to local restaurants and store shopping. And it's a short drive to all the walking trails at Arcadia National Park. Great place to stay and have fun!"

Strawberry Hill A Deluxe Retreat, Close to Village 1.5 mi to Acadia

Strawberry Hill A Deluxe Retreat, Close to Village 1.5 mi to Acadia

8/10 Good
"I am really torn leaving a review for this property. The property itself is beautiful, if you want Fall foliage, it was gorgeous. Location was great. Super quiet, saw deer in the back yard. Great kitchen and appropriate cooking utensils, etc. Loved having the option of a hot tub. Awesome game room, enjoyed using the pool table. Would have loved to have played darts as they have 2 dart boards, however, there were zero darts available. There are 3 full baths and 2 half baths but only one working hairdryer. There was a great fireplace, as advertised downstairs, however, there was a sign telling us not to use it. The most disappointing of all of this was that I texted the appropriate number about the darts, hairdryer and the fireplace hoping that there might be spares somewhere and at least an explanation re: the fireplace but 3 days later I have not received one response other than check out instructions. I’m glad nothing serious was wrong because we would have been on our own."

"We had a wonderful stay in Acadia thanks to Jenny's hospitality and her beautiful home in Seal Harbor. The property was exactly as listed, with some extra touches we absolutely loved. The living room and kids' bedroom were stocked with books and games that made our cozy evenings in so enjoyable. The towels and toiletries provided were very nice, and it was especially thoughtful that beach towels were on hand for beach adventures. The sweet welcome note waiting for us on arrival was the perfect finishing touch. We can't wait to come back!"
