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!

Couples getaway
Our stay was amazing. Great room with a view overlooking the ocean. The breakfast was wonderful as well as the blueberry muffins. Great staff with an awesome recommendation for hiking. We would have liked to have had a fridge in the room but overall its an amazing place to stay.
Jessica, 6-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

The Inn is in such a gorgeous location. It was so quiet--we rarely ran into other guests, and when we did it was a pleasure to cha with them. Loved sitting on the large porch/deck and enjoying the view. The sound does travel, so we heard other guests in the hallway and we suspect they heard us when we were up early.
Elyse, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Family owned, super quiet and safe, staff was friendly and knowledgeable of the area.
Bridget, 3-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

We love our stay here. Don was so helpful about all questions that we had. Spectacular place for sunsets. So so many harbor seals from our balcony. Saw a whale too. Very dark at night for great star watching.
