Very nice, the other guests made it special!
We really enjoyed sitting across the breakfast table with other guests and talking about what they had done and enjoyed the most. It helped us get the most out of our visits to the park, our sunset cruise and our restaurant selections.

Wonderful Inn
Charming inn close to “downtown” Bar Harbor and Acadia. No need to search for a place to park since the Inn is so close to many restaurants and shops. Our room was spacious and we enjoyed the smart TV which allowed us to watch a wide variety of streaming services. Wish more hotels and Inns would have this. Breakfast was great with a different selection each day and there were always options for people with food allergies. We would definitely stay again if we’re in the area

Charming b&b with everything you need
This was our first stay at a b&b. Andrew & the staff set the bar so high I don’t know if we’d ever be able to stay elsewhere. The property is stunning, impeccably maintained, our room was very well appointed & HUGE!! Very walkable to all the local restaurants & shopping. Breakfast was delicious with a nice variety of offerings. Really a fantastic stay. Wouldn’t change a thing.

Great for a couples trip
The staff was extremely helpful providing restaurant recommendations and places to hike in Acadia. The breakfast and happy hour needs improvement. The food is acceptable but not great. The room was nice and very clean. It’s an easy walk to restaurants and shopping.

Lovely home with a wonderful staff!
What a wonderful stay! The staff were very kind and accommodating (we took a wrong turn on a trail and had to check out late…) The owner was on hand in the morning and was a wealth of information for hiking trails that are off the beaten path as well as suggestions are local dining. The home is lovely, breakfast feels like you are surrounded by old friends and late afternoon wine and cheese are just a few of the personal touches that Thornhedge Inn has to offer.
Our bedroom was so spacious and lovely
The charm of this home and attention to details made this visit so endearing.

Cons: room off the main house, 1 window did not provide privacy, kept curtains drawn, , the other window overlooked unkempt property. Room lacked charm one would anticipate when staying at B&B. Breakfast adequate…we were not offered all that was available…found this out as we leaving dining area and another couple sat down. No ice machine. TV limited programming. Pros: staff pleasant, lots of opportunities to walk around and enjoy atmosphere of Bar Harbor. Great restaurants, charming area, and of course Arcadia National Park.
