Great views. Easy self checkin for late arrival. Stargazing was awesome! Room decorations were cute. Room had an AC that worked great and gave good white noise for sound sleeping. Super convenient location. Great recommendations through their text service.

Perfect 10 of 10

What a perfect little cabin perfectly located for sunsets over the waters of Acadia. Especially nice was the informational texts about the stay. Secret spots to see wildlife, sunsets, cliffs, etc…. We will return again. Located in Schoodic portion of Acadia (much less crowded than Bar Harbor side).

8/10 Very good

The views from the porch were amazing, we loved watching the sunset! The coffee cake at breakfast was delicious.
Taylor, 5-night trip

6/10 Good

The room and view were very nice, but service was very lacking. Continental breakfast was advertised but not provided. Ownership had a family gathering during our stay which was uncomfortable, and felt like we were imposing on their family reunion. The stay should not have been available if that was planned as the lodge did not feel welcoming with the family and kids using the kitchen to cook breakfast and any other meals, especially in absence of providing the advertised breakfast to paying guests. Additionally, the room didn’t have a trash can.
Edward, 3-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Our cabin was absolutely magiical at the Bluff House Inn and exactly what you want for a Maine coastal cabin! Don, the owner, was incredibly responsive and gave us numerous tips for our visit. Breakfast was perfect and homemade baked goods were delicious, plus the cookie when we arrived for check in! A must stay in the Acadia area and we will definitely be back!
