Located just up the road from one of the best lobster pounds in New England, Harbour Cottage is an excellent home base to use when exploring Acadia and Mt. Desert island. The rooms are beautiful (VERY comfortable beds) and the breakfasts are terrific. We stayed for three days, and wished we could have stayed longer.

“perfect place”
Harbour Cottage Inn
16 Nov 2007
1/1 found this review helpful
We loved the Harbour Cottage Inn and would definitely recommend it. We stayed at The Carriage House for 3 nights and could not have been happier-very relaxing. It was adorable, spacious and clean. The inn is located in a quiet area but just a short drive to Acadia National Park and Bar Harbor. We really enjoyed eating our breakfast on the porch but the breakfast room was beautiful as well. The food was excellent. We stayed at the perfect place.

Other “awesome atmosphere”
Harbour Cottage Inn
11 Nov 2007
We first had the pleasure of staying at Harbor Cottage in 2006 and enjoyed it so much that we chose to vacation there again in 2007 and brought our parents! The staff is outstanding and the atmosphere is truly awesome. You would pay three times as much in a hotel to achieve this kind of relaxation and pampering.

We loved our stay at the Harbour Cottage Inn and wish we could have stayed longer. The room was great, and the food delicious. Hope we can come back again as it is also a beautiful area to visit.

“Another fantastic stay”
Harbour Cottage Inn
23 Sep 2007
1/1 found this review helpful
Like the tile says, another fantastic stay!
2007 marks the third year in a row we have chosen the Harbour Cottage Inn for our fall getaway. Once again the stay was wonderful. The inn is located within walking distance of pretty much everything in Southwest Harbor, and a short drive from the other major destinations on MDI.
The inn is extremely well run and maintained, all reservations can be handled via the inn's website. The rooms are well appointed and comfortable. Several have views of the harbor (see attched photo). After hours check-in is also an option if you're travel runs late into the evening.
A full breakfast is provided each morning! The menu varies from day to day, during our stays we have been treated to pancakes, baked eggs, crepes, and french toast to name a few. You can dine indoors or on the inn's covered front porch.
The first floor of the inn has a sitting area with lots of information about Southwest Harbor attractions. You can find menus for virtually every restaurant on the island. Coffee and tea are available throughout the day. The inn also has a selection of regional wine and beer available a la carte.
Overall the Harbor Cottage Inn offers a wonderful experience. Relaxed, well appointed, and very professionally run.
