We went to Maine for the wedding of my neice. Two other neices and families came along also. We had two rooms in the main house and the cottage out back. There were 8 people in all. It was a wonderful family week. The Harbour Cottage Inn is gorgeous in every detail. The breakfasts were wonderful each morning out on the porch. All of us are homesick for this wonderful place and the charming owners. It is on the list of must return places for the whole family. Very relaxing if you wish or there are many places to go to for hiking in the national park. You can park your car and take the free bus to the busier Bar Harbour for the day. This B&B is a real treasure. Enjoy!

“Peaceful at the Harbour Cottage Inn”

Harbour Cottage Inn

16 Mar 2008

Our second year in a row at this enchanting B & B. Don and Javier are gracious hosts and Javier's breakfasts are terrific. We stayed with our college aged son in an upstairs suite. The room worked perfectly for us and we found the downstairs living room to be comfortable and inviting. Breakfast on the porch, weather permitting is a treat and the lawn chairs are quite inviting.

We love Southwest Harbor as a more peaceful part of Mount Desert but within very easy striking distance to terrific hiking, carriage trail biking or dinner in Bar Harbor. Southwest Harbor has it's own assortment of nice restaurants, coffee shops, bakeries.

We hope to return.

We truly enjoyed our stay at Harbour Cottage Inn. The owners were extremely nice, courteous, helpful, etc. Having our breakfast on the porch was a great way to start each day, no matter what the weather conditions were. The staff was friendly and attentive,. Harbour Cottage Inn is a nice place to come back to after a day of sightseeing. I hope to stay there again!

    • Liked — The structure itself and how it was decorated.
    • Disliked — Would have preferred more savory breakfasts rather than sweet, although all of it was delicious.

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.
