Top Thunder Hole Hotel Reviews

Seasider Motel

10/10 Excellent

"Helpful staff, good parking and good lication"

Bar Harbor Manor

10/10 Excellent

"The room was very spacious and the location of Bar Harbor Manor is great. It’s close enough to the Village Green and Bar Harbor shopping to walk, but far enough out that you don’t have all of the traffic or congestion. However, the biggest highlight of our stay at Bar Harbor Manor was Christopher at the front desk. Not only did he make us feel welcome to the Bar Harbor Manor, but he made us feel so welcomed to Bar Harbor as a community. He engaged in genuine conversation with us, gave us some excellent recommendations for food and entertainment, and was so kind! It’s obvious he loves his job, the hotels he serves, and the community he loves."

Spacious Home in the Heart of Acadia National Park

10/10 Excellent

"This was the perfect house for our visit to Acadia. Location can’t be beat - so close to town and the park. The house was spacious for our group of 8. Our kids especially loved the swimming hole nearby and the fire pit. Would come back again!"

3BR- Walk or Bike to Acadia! [Carpenters Quarters]

10/10 Excellent

"This is the best location in Acadia. Away from the hustle and bustle of Bar Harbor. Great local neighborhood restaurant called the Lighthouse. Acadia Outdoor Center is a half a mile walk down the hill where you can rent ebikes, get hiking gear and snacks, or get a blueberry latte and delicious gelato. The house was great for our family of 5. It is an old, charming 1940s era bungalow. All the bedrooms are upstairs and the one bath is down. The stairs are quite steep with narrow planks. The washer and dryer are in the basement which has a very low head clearance (I'm 6'3") and is not the most inviting space in the house. However, the newer and very large capacity washer and dryer are great and a very nice amenity. The kitchen is well stocked and has everything you need including a coffee maker that does k-cups (bring your own) and traditional brew (Filters and coffee provided). The dining room table was perfect with seating for six and the two living rooms were perfect. One for TV and one for reading/relaxing. Plenty of parking for two or three cars in the driveway and a nice deck out back for grilling. The does have AC upstairs. There are window units in two rooms an upright unit in the other. They are a little loud...We ebiked for three days and it was awesome to be a mile and a half from Jordan Pond House and the carriage roads. Our host was great and was very prompt with communication. Highly recommend this spot. It's an incredible value, truly a hidden gem!"
