We absolutely loved our stay. The hosts were so kind and were always in communication with us. They made the check in and out process very easy. The cottage was clean and had everything we needed. We look forward to staying with them again in the future.

Cute, clean and comfy little cottages in a fabulous location right on the water. An easy 4 mile bike ride on country roads gets you the Hulls Cove Acadia NP gate where you can pick up the legendary carriage trails. Our hosts were great and we will definitely be back next year.

Incredible Cabin / Property

The location was perfect, just outside the Park and bustle of Bar Harbor but close enough to enjoy. Camp fire was such a nice touch to enjoy the stars and quiet evening. Can’t wait to comeback and spend more time! Highly recommend this property!

Lovely cabins and Hosts

We booked with Bay Meadow cottages because we were celebrating our 45th wedding anniversary. And we were looking for something that would keep us

Perfect location

Enjoyed my stay very much at Bay Meadow Cottages. Location was perfect as you are tucked away in a little cove, yet not far from downtown Bar Harbor, or Acadia. Enjoyed having a fire pit just outside my cottage and everything was available to create my fire to sit and relax at the end of my days. Hosts were fantastic also, always available if needed, and had some wonderful suggestions for places to eat. Will be going back next year for sure.

I highly reccomend booking a stay at Bay Meadow Cottages! The property is delightful and charming, and short drive to the center of Bar Harbor and multiple entrances to Acadia National Park. You must have a piece of the blueberry pie and ice cream for desert or breakfast (or any other meal for that matter) it is delish! Kirsten was very kind and easy to communicate with, it was a pleasure chatting with her in person when we met in the barn at check out. Her activity and dining options are spot on and would absolutely co-sign McKay’s, The Chart Room, and Cafe This Way!We stayed in the little puffin cottage for a quick in-and-out day at Acadia Notional Park and the cottage had everything we needed and then some. The fresh pour over coffee was a much appreciated indulgence, and the cabin was very clean and tidy. Overall, very well designed and thought out and appreciated the oversized bedside tables :) Easy 10/10 and look forward to returning!
