My husband and I stayed in the smallest room at White Columns and found it exceptionally clean and comfortable. We made a conscious decision to take the smallest room in the Inn which is clearly described on the website. We didn't plan to spend much time in the room and one of the joys of a B & B are... more

Anne and Bob were delightful hosts. The cocktail hour in the late afternoon (wine and cheese) was fun and a chance to meet some of the "neighbors" in the other rooms. Bob is a wonderful pianist and plays in some other hotels in the evening. Bar Harbor is small, but the entire Mt. Desert Island is large, and lots to... more

We booked the smallest room in this Inn, but since there were plenty of vacancies, Bob, the owner, upgraded us to a larger room for free! Breakfast was tasty and the wine and cheese in the afternoon, while nothing spectacular, was a nice afternoon treat. The Inn is just a few blocks from town and you can walk to everything.... more

Anne's White Columns is truly a jewel of Bar Harbor. My wife and I stayed at the Columns the last of August and the first of September for 3 nights. Bob and Anne went completely out of their way to make our stay enjoyable. The Columns has different sized rooms to choose from, so there is something for everyone. We... more

My wife and I just returned from our first trip up to Bar Harbor and we couldn't have asked for a better place to stay! Between the walking distance to downtown and Bar Harbor's free shuttle service to Acadia and beyond, there's no reason to move your car from "The Columns" after your arrival. The owner, Bob was as nice... more

The room was ok, but cramped. Toiletries were sparse. The "wine and cheese" reception was a joke - one tiny plate of grocery store cheddar cheese, a few stale crackers, and nasty box wine. Nothing was replenished, despite the fact that there were a number of guests sitting and chatting. The employee was kind of hanging around giving folks the... more

This B&B had some poor reviews a couple of years ago. The problems have been corrected. Remodled bathrooms and new beds. We enjoyed our stay and extended another night. Rooms are not large, but a good value. Breakfast is in the parlor or on the porch, weather permitting. The owner was helpful on advising places to see. If you want... more

We had a very pleasant stay. The B & B was so very cozy. The owners were very friendly. Breakfast was a treat. We would love to stay again. Bar Harbor is a fantastic place to visit. Don't miss the sunrise on Cadillac Mtn. Well worth it. more

My husband and I went to Bar Harbor to visit my sister, who lives there and she arranged our stay at this wonderful bed and breakfast. It was our first experience at a bed and breakfast and it was great. The breakfasts were delicious and fueled long walks through the beautiful Acadia National Park. The Baked French Toast - blueberry... more
