We had a fantastic stay at the Sunnyside Motel & Cottages! The manager is so sweet and helpful and very accommodating with our late arrival due to travel delays. We had a room, not a cottage. It was very clean and comfortable. The only thing I would mention is that there is a refrigerator, but no microwave or coffee maker. Overall, for the price, I would definitley stay here again.

Thank you for hosting, Helen!

I stayed a total of four nights. The place was very clean and quiet (my room was towards the back), though the motel was full. I did not rent a car, there were two shuttle pick-up spots within walking distance. In the evening, shuttle drivers would drop me off right by the property when I gave them advanced notice. Very conveniently located. Helen (the owner) is very nice and shared interesting story and useful trip information of the area. I enjoyed my stay there.

The room I had was older, but had a charm about it. However, it did not have many plugs in which to charge devices. The area was very quiet, which is good. However, one would need a car as it is about 10 miles away. There was a bbq grill, a pool and a laundry room. I can’t comment on these as I did not use them.

Sunnyside is an adorable place, conveniently located just a few miles from Acadia and Bar Harbor. It’s not new, but the cute yellow cottages and motel, was clean and comfortable. The owners are on site and just wonderful. I would highly recommend staying here.

Staying in a cottage at Sunnyside was a fun and unique way for us to enjoy Acadia. We stayed there 1 week, and it was super convenient to all of Acadia and just a 15 minutes drive to Bar Harbor. We enjoyed sitting outside our cottage in the evenings and watching the sunset. The owners are very friendly and helpful.

The room was large, clean, and the property is well cared for. The owners are on site 24/7 and were friendly and hospitable. Our room was at the front of the property and faced the road, so there was a fair amount of noise from the road. But it looks like most of the rooms are further away and would not hear the road as much. The mattresses were very firm. Ample, convenient parking—we had a spot right next to our room. We’d stay there again.

Nothing fancy but the bed was comfortable.

Just the bare necessities. No microwave in the room but they did have a fridge, no ice machine. We were expecting a cottage, but got a motel room instead.

We were looking for a reasonable price room for a few days. I was told that the cabins didn't have AC so we got the motel room turned out the cabins had AC we would have taken the cabin over the room. Was a nice property. rooms outlets should be updated was a struggle charging phone's. Laundry on site bring quarters

No amenities in room. No coffee, iron. No breakfast. Only coffee in office. Beds are not great. Shower stall is tiny! Location is good. A couple runs the property with no staff so no room cleanup. It was clean when we arrived but be prepared for no amenities. A no frills place!
