Nice cottage. Don’t do the online checkin- - they still require you to sign paperwork in the office between 9-5.

Great location, quiet campground
Beautiful setting, great facilities. Only problem was that some of the facilities were closed because of COVID, didn’t realize that when we booked our stay.

Great Cabin for the Family
We stayed in the little yellow cabin and it was great! It's compact, but had everything we needed! There's even a tiny kitchen. We had 3 kids sleeping in the loft and one on the pull-out couch, and we slept in the bedroom. Everything is a bit dated and could use some updates, but it was comfortable and clean. Just a short drive to Acadia and Bar Harbor. We only used the public restrooms a couple of times but they were very clean and in working order.

First time "glamping"
Beautiful spot. Very friendly, down-to-earth hosts. Close to Acadia. Economic way to have extended family stay too. Loved it! Will come again.

Hooks in cabin put in inconvenient, hard to access places on wall. No table. Mattresses uncomfortable -- compressed foam.

Nice Cabin, convenient location for Acadia
We were really happy with our experience in one of their log cabins which comfortably fit our family. The staff was very nice and helpful, it's convenient to get to Acadia National Park, and there's even a bus stop so you can get to Bar Harbor without needing to drive and hunt for parking.

The overall staff and facility was fine however, we would not stay here again. We stayed in the cabins and the mattress was so thin it felt like we were laying on the floor. Our main problem was with the toilet by the cabins. The waste from the toilet was leaking out of perforations in the tubing that was meant to take it to the septic. We alerted the office staff who promptly told maintenance. Maintenance attended to the problem by placing duct tape over the holes in the tubing, which did not entirely fix the problem. It is unacceptable to fix a waste problem this way. It is a health hazard to have waste possibly come in contact with ground water and I am shocked that it wasn't fixed properly with new tubing.

"Camping"
We loved the location! The cabins were fin. Remember you are "camping" so there are no bathrooms in the cabin. It was an excellent experience. Office staff a little snappy.

Nice little cottage on the way to acadia
I have stayed in cottages at other camping resorts before, but I think because this place only has RV's it made the bathrooms much cleaner and there was a lot less traffic. The resort was full, but it just didn't seem to be super busy and we kind of felt like we had the place to ourselves. It was a little far from Acadia, considering we drove back and forth multiple times a day. But if you can plan accordingly and only drive onto the island once a day, it's fine.

No room for us at arrival
In July I reserved 4 nights in August through Expedia. The confirmation emails came stating there was no need to reconfirm. On the day of our arrival they did not have the cabin nor our reservation! The assistant manager spent all her time blaming Expedia and was no help in resolving our immediate lodging problem. There was no where else to book and Fortunately I knew that on MDI during the high season all motels alert the chamber with cancellations so I did find much more expensive accommodations on my own. Let's just say this was a very stressful and angry experience on my part...autistic child involved ...you get the picture. My biggest frustration was with the management. Inexperienced and not properly trained. I will not stay at this or any associated property again.

Great place to stay for the price!
Stayed here to go to Acadia (only 15 min away) and paid about $68 / night for 5 people to stay in one cabin. It was a great experience! The bath / showers are separate from the cabin, and about a ~500 meter walk, but even when it was about 28 degrees F outside, the showers were quite warm and comfortable, and the bathrooms were very clean! Joanne was very accommodating, especially for late-night check-in, and the next morning gave us maps and pointers to talk with the Park Rangers on where we should run and hike to get to know Acadia - very great advice!

Good cabin
I was surprised there was no stove or hot place, even thought it stated that there was a kitchenette. All there was was a mini fridge and microwave. The bathroom was clean but the water in the sinks and showers did not flow well. It was annoying having to wait so long for the water to heat up.

Good location
This was a good place to stay. The location was convenient to all of the destinations we wanted to see. The only down side was the noise from the planes at the local airport flying over. The showers at the shower house could use some work, not very much water pressure. The staff was very helpful and offered assistance with "local" insight as to where to park and eat. That was very useful and appreciated. Check in was very easy and so was check out.

Camping cabins near Bar Harbor, Maine
There were cobwebs in the upper part of the cabin, near the upper bunkbeds. I don't how thorough the cabins are cleaned between renters. The cabins are about a 30 min drive from downtown Bar Harbor. The water pressure in the showers are pretty low.

Nice place
Good cabins, right on Highway 3 for direct access to Acadia, good facilities including clean bathrooms and a bus stop for the Island Explorer bus. Highly recommended place.

Not recommended
The camping cabins did not have their own fire rings and were very close to each other. Smell of raw sewage was constant. Noticed water being pumped from the resort out into the bay. The camping cabin was run down overall. Badly in need of new mattresses at the least. I have stayed in many camping cabins, and the mattresses have always been okay to sleep on.. the ones at Narrows you may as well just sleep on the wood! It was not just one bed that was like that, it was all of them.. It is a small investment for them to make their guests comfortable, at the very least. Airplanes very noisy from the airport. It really is just an RV resort with a couple cabins/cottages placed here or there. Would not recommend.
