Hi everyone! It’s a beautiful, sunny day here is Southwest Harbor. We are finishing up last minute (very last minute!) projects and getting ready for the busy summer months.  Right now Mark is outside giving the front porch a fresh coat of paint.  Mark is  much more  of a precise painter than I, so I have no doubt it will turn out great! 

So many guests enjoy breakfast on the porch and it’s obvious why, the smell of the ocean air is so invigorating. It’s always great to hear the activities folks are lining up for the day. Only problem is, there’s so much to do in the area that it’s hard to decide what to start with. Head out for a day of sea kayaking or take the Baker Island Cruise?  Relax on Sand Beach or hike Beech Mountain? Maybe rent a bicycle and hit the Carriage Roads. A great way to end the day is by catching the romantic sunset cruise on the Margaret Todd or a sunset flight of Acadia.

Of course, some folks just like to spend the afternoon hours relaxing here at the Inn and socializing with their fellow guests. Each weekend, this summer, guests will enjoy a  fondue & wine afternoon social. After getting checked in , many guests just like a short time to gather their thoughts and take in their surroundings. Enjoy a sweet or savory fondue , a complimenting glass of wine, relax in the front porch rockers and decide where to head for dinner. We have many great dinner suggestions, by the way, and if it’s lobster you’re looking for, well, Beal’s Lobster Pier is just a 5 minute walk down the street! Can’t wait to see you  all this summer!

It’s Officially Summer in Maine!

Hope everyone enjoyed a wonderful memorial Day this past weekend! Memorial Day weekend signifies that the summer season is officially underway. I love seeing the lobster steamers fired up at Trenton bridge Lobster Pound! The lilac tree next door is blooming beautifully and smells so wonderful. :)
Our guests arriving yesterday afternoon, couldn’t wait to get inside to tell us about the 2 deer in the backyard munching on the hostas!
It’s going to be a wonderful summer here at the Inn and we do hope you’ll pay us a visit. Be sure to check out our “Packages” page for the scoop on our INN to INN package with the White Cedar Inn in Freeport, Maine!
Heading into the kitchen to bake up some triple Chocolate Chunk Brownies. Probably going to make a batch of maple cream chocolates (my favorite!) too and then head outside to get some sunshine and check on the herbs and tomato plants. Have a great day, everyone!

Welcome to our new website!

Happy Spring!  We are enjoying a wonderful springtime here in Southwest Harbor. Flowers are being planted, mulch is being spread,herbs & tomato plants are taking their places in our backyard garden and the coastal Maine air is so fresh!

We are most excited about the launch of our new website! Shortly after purchasing the Inn in 2007, we remodeled the previous site, to serve only temporary, while we consulted with various web designers and photographers. Ultimately, we developed a wonderful connection with Rare Brick . Dawn & Adam are the friendly, talented,creative designers & planners behind Rare Brick. We put our faith in them to present our B&B in a most wonderful way and they have succeeded!

So, browse our site, and enjoy planning your Maine vacation in Acadia National Park. We have included much information regarding great restaurants, fun things to do & great places to shop.
