We stayed at the Heathwood for a week and couldn't have been happier! The combination of a great location on the island and the warm and wonderful accommodations were terrific. There is kayaking within a half mile of the property on Northeast Creek. The innkeeper really knew the island and arranged bike rentals (delivered right to the inn) and reservations... More

My boyfriend and I stayed at the Heathwood for a long weekend this past summer. We had done some research on what we wanted to do during our visit but still had a few questions. Karen was absolutely amazing and so incredibly helpful. She pointed us in the direction of Bar Harbor's best lobster rolls and gave us some great... More

My wife and I stayed at this B&B for two nights while on a long weekend trip to Acadia. We booked this sort of last minute and options were limited (and prices steep given the high season). The manager of the B&B was extremely helpful, and very knowledgeable on local dining options and hiking trails/activities. She even lent us her... More

We stayed at the Heathwood Inn in September and used it as a base for exploring Acadia National Park. The owner was very helpful in suggesting hikes and providing a map book of the park. Her breakfasts each morning were delicious too--coffee cakes and egg dishes. The other guests were all very friendly, which made for nice breakfast gatherings. We... More

After searching and searching for a B & B for our first trip to Maine, we settled on the Heathwood. With so many choices, we were nervous about making the right decision. We were relieved when we entered our spacious and comfortable room. I was disappointed that we didn't get the opportunity to enjoy the large deck off the room... More

We stayed here for three nights in late August and LOVED it! Karen is a wonderful hostess. Her breakfasts are delicious and satisfying and she is full of ideas and recommendations for things to do and see around the island. Our room was clean, comfortable and spacious. Breakfast is a warm and friendly experience with Karen and her guests sharing... More

We really enjoyed our two nights here. Karen is welcoming and inviting, we were given ample details, about both Bar Harbor and Acadia National Park. She'll answer any questions you may have as well as sit in on breakfast and chat with the guests. Her breakfasts were filling and delicious. Good location, clean rooms!!! Thanks for loaning us the cd... More

We stayed two nights at this B&B in Bar Harbor. The room was very nice although I saw a cob web or two and the steam shower did not work. The food that the hostess prepared was outstanding! It was about seven miles, a straight shot, into Bar Harbor and to the National Park.

We loved Heathwood Inn because we were able to stay close to Acadia and yet avoid the busyness of down town Bar Harbor. Karen knows the area well and has lots of good recommendations. We were grateful to be able to borrow a hiking guide from her. She's also a great cook. We really enjoyed staying in the Hunter's Brook... More

Karen is a terrific hostess and the Heathwood is great place to stay in the Bar Harbor area. The Inn is quiet, comfortable and clean. It is close to all the major attractions on Mt Desert Island, yet removed from the traffic and congestion of downtown Bar Harbor. The breakfasts were delicious and Karen goes out of her way to...
