The Inn on Mount Desert
The room was clean and spacious, the bed was comfotable, the breakfast (made fresh!) was delicious, the snacks throughout the day were appreciated, and the staff was wonderful. The Inn is conveniently located and there was ample parking. It has a fantastic atmosphere. We hope to return soon.
