Where to Stay in Acadia National Park

Acadia National Park Lodging

Bar Harbor sits on Mount Desert Island, right at the edge of Acadia National Park. That means you're close to the trails, carriage roads, and rocky coastline that define this part of Maine. Whether you're planning sunrise on Cadillac Mountain, a paddle out to the Porcupines, or a long weekend built around lobster rolls and salt air, you'll want a place that puts you near the action.

This guide covers lodging across Bar Harbor and Mount Desert Island, waterfront hotels, small B&Bs, vacation rentals, cabins, and resorts. Whatever works for your trip, your group, and what you want to spend, you'll find options that keep you close to both the park and town.
