Great stay. Perfect location if you want to paddle on Echo Lake. My only wish was that coffee was available a little earlier than 7AM. :)

My daughter and I loved our stay at the Harbourside Inn. We loved being in Northeast Harbor. Close to the national park but away from the touristy bustle of Bar Harbor. The inn was classic New England. Our room was bright and clean, and the property itself was beautiful. I would definitely stay there again!

Quintessential

The inn is a charming, quintessential New England style building tucked just off of the main road. The room we stayed in was very spacious. Everything was kept very clean. We loved the freshly baked breakfast muffins and fruit, but wish they offered a protein option (eggs, meat, etc...) for those of us who were doing some serious hiking. Overall, it was lovely.

This large home, built well over 100 years ago, was the perfect place for us to spend four nights in Northeast Harbor. Our bedroom (room 1) had a small kitchen, equipped, with a perfectly functioning fridge that had to be 70 years old, with everything we needed. Every room was filled with delightful antiques furnishings. We enjoyed all of the public spaces, including a fire pit, two sitting areas, and a breakfast room. Breakfast consisted of a variety of fresh-baked muffins, fruit, oatmeal, and different packaged granola bars and donuts. The coffee was very good and plentiful! We were in Maine to escape the heat, hike, and eat lobster, and we accomplished all of these things right in NEH. We were able to walk into the village in about 8-10 minutes and find a few great restaurants. We took a nature cruise (Princess Line) right from the marina in town, and we were able to take extensive hikes from trails starting just behind the inn. NEH is a perfect location for people like us (mid-50’s) who want a quieter stay than Bar Harbor. Also, do not hesitate to use the free and excellent bus service that serves Mount Desert. Parking in BH is awful, so just walk into the village and grab the free bus! We recommend driving about 6 minutes to Abel’s Lobster Restaurant. It has a casual outdoor area where we sat, right on the water, and ate amazing lobster! We are already looking forward to returning.

Authentic inn with lots of character and features. Very helpful staff. Real fire place in the room if that’s something that appeals to you. Room was immaculate, bed very comfortable and a nice little breakfast selection for the morning. Easy check in and some lovely outdoor seating with fire pits. It is possible to walk to Northeast harbour.

A friendly, family run inn. Very typical of old Maine style with cute wallpaper, wood floors, and old Maine charm. If you are looking for modern luxury this isn’t for you. However, if you want a lovely inn with a ton of charm and a great price on the island, then you won’t find better than the Harbourside. The bedroom was big with a very comfortable bed and lovely bed linens. It’s an easy walk to Northeast Harbor with excellent shopping and restaurants.
