10/10 Excellent
"We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the resort. It was everything we imagined it to be and more. The location, spacious property, lush grass areas, ocean views, sunrises, dining, pleasant staff and close to Acadia National Park. We could not ask for a more awesome experience. We absolutely LOVED the resort and will definitely return if we are ever in Maine again. I highly recommend the stay. Everyone is so friendly - staff and guests included. It is dog friendly and our fur babies had a wonderful time waling throughout the property."

10/10 Excellent
"We liked that the property had the basics right- clean rooms, comfortable beds etc. We enjoyed the piano sessions in the evening in the common area. While you can’t just step out and be in downtown, it’s within reasonable walking distance if weather is good. One annoyance was that we always needed to carry a physical key with us instead of card or app."
