The service, atmosphere, and attention to detail at this inn is spectacular. The owner/operators make everyone feel at home. The food is amazing. The location is perfect. We stayed in room 9 and it was absolutely beautiful.

My husband and I stayed three nights at the Bass Cottage Inn and loved it. While the Inn is located in Bar Harbor, it's off the main road on a small side street. The location turned out to be perfect - we had quiet surroundings, yet could walk two blocks to restaurants and less than four blocks to catch the... More

Made very welcome by Terri & Geoff, even though we checked in rather early. The Inn is quiet & peaceful & less than 100 meters from the main street. There was a large, very comfortable bed & the room was spacious & tastefully furnished. Great advice was given for our travels around the island & breakfast was very good. Only... More

There isn't much to say that hasn't been said. The staff will make you feel most welcome and offer as little or much info as you want. The accommodations are very good, excellent bed and breakfasts were outstanding. It is convenient to local shopping and restaurants as you can walk there as opposed to driving in the congested area.

My wife and I stayed here in late August for two nights while we explored Acadia National Park. After looking at the website for many hotels in the area, we were a little nervous about any hotel in the Bar Harbor area being of the caliber we're used to. We finally decided on the Bass Cottage Inn and boy were... More

Our stay at the Bass Cottage Inn was nothing less than spectacular. The beautiful historical home was meticulously restored to absolute perfection. The bedrooms had fireplaces, jacuzzi tubs, and the softest bedding I've ever experienced. The living areas had fireplaces and were perfect for socializing with the other guests or just reading a good book. I particularly loved the sun... More

We were going to stay at another B&B but they did not have a room for a second night and referred us here. We were so glad they did. After staying in many B&B's all over, we can say they truly thought of everything. From the decor, the rooms, the service, the sitting rooms with fireplaces, and especially the breakfasts...it...

We stayed at Bass Cottage Inn last week for 3 days. This B&B represents the absolute top of the hill when compared to other properties. The rooms are comfortable, Teri and Jeff, the owners, are engaging and extremely helpful. The central meeting areas are open and enjoyable and afford one the opportunity to meet up with other guests and compare... More

The Bass Cottage Inn is a beautifully restored heritage home offering the complete package of modern convenience with old world charm. My room on the top floor had a spacious, new washroom and plenty of area beautifully decorated in a manner to suit the ambience of the inn. The bed was tucked into the dormer and definitely offered the softest... More

We stayed 2 nights at this wonderful inn. Everything was perfect. Our room was beautiful, spotless and comfortable. The inn keepers and their staff were incredibly helpful in every way. There are many different common areas so you can sit and read comfortably downstairs if you so desire. The "pantry" is stocked with complimentary sodas, ice tea, coffee and tea... More
