Beautiful place in great area

This is a beautiful, comfortable place to stay to explore the surrounding area and Acadia National Park. Kelly is such a gracious host, and we were able to extend out stay because of Hurricane Lee.

Beautifully decorated, clean and full of all things for a comfortable stay. We mainly were there to hike as many trails as possible Acadia National Park. We found Bar Harbor too crowded so checked out Ellsworth. We enjoyed the food and beer at Fogtown brewery and Airline Brewing
