If you love the outdoors and need to remove yourself from all things electronic and literally…read moreunplug then I highly recommend Grand Lake Lodge. Although categorized as a campground this is a lodge with cabins that rest along the shoreline of West Grand Lake. Best suited for fishermen and hunters who wish to enjoy the surrounding lakes, woods and streams. Each cabin has a kitchen, running water, and fully plumbed bathrooms. I visited here over Memorial Day Weekend (2011) to do some Salmon fishing and will be returning for years to come. Yes for the fishing but also because the owners of Grand Lake Lodge have excellent cabins to crash in after a busy day on the water. Free docking for your boat if your looking to fish the lake. Only $42 bucks a night if you have more than one in your party. Beautiful setting! Big Fan!

My son recently got married on Great Wass Island in Maine. My husband and I, daughter and…read moreson-in-law and two grandsons (ages 2.5 and 5.5) stayed at Cranberry cove. Dorothy rose was wonderful from the first phone call that I made to her. She was very accommodating of the children, and offered that they sleep on the two love seats, which made a perfect "nest" for them. The studio is in a converted barn and it is extremely comfortable. Great views, and the most well appointed kitchenette that I've ever seen! The chairs next to the water offer a soothing place to relax. The walking trails are great, with signs throughout - a "secret cabin" that the boys loved, and a beaver dam. There are kayaks that my daughter and her family enjoyed. Dorothy Rose even put out hula hoops and other toys for the boys. She has toy bins and a great collection of books and games. I can't say enough good things about Dorothy Rose and Cranberry Cove. We travel a good bit, and seldom stay in hotels - Cranberry cove is perhaps the very best place that we have stayed. Bonney D. Riverton NJ

The location is perfect for exploring the Maine coast and the view from the studio is amazing! The unit is extremely clean and the queen bed is very comfortable. There is a well equipped kitchenette with stove, refrigerator and microwave if you want to cook. The sitting area with two love seats is a nice place to watch tv or just take in the view of the ocean! There is another room downstairs for kids or extra guests. There are chairs across the street for ocean viewing and in the back of the property there is a short hiking trail that leads to a pond in the back. Dorothy Rose has kayaks there for guests to use. There are ducks, geese, beavers, and other wildlife to see. This area is so relaxing you will not want to leave!

Our stay at The Bayview Hotel was the best travel experience our family has ever had. As parents of…read moretwo young children, it was amazing to have it feel relaxing and fun for everyone--but The Bayview somehow managed to do exactly that. It wasn't just a vacation; it felt like we were genuinely cared for from the moment we arrived until the day we left. The attention to detail throughout the property is exceptional. Every member of the staff was warm, welcoming, and eager to make our stay special. We were constantly amazed by the thoughtful touches--from the personalized treats waiting for our kids, to the beautifully folded laundry returned in a charming basket (what a luxury for a mom on vacation!), to the nightly turndown service that made us feel completely pampered. Breakfast each morning was outstanding and we all loved the afternoon teatime! Chef Tricia and her team created delicious, beautifully prepared food. it was lovely to be able to pop in for breakfast or afternoon tea and treats each day. Our children loved the nightly s'mores around the fire pit, the playground, and wandering the shoreline trail to climb on the rocks by the water. Those simple moments became some of our favorite family memories. The complimentary shuttle into downtown Bar Harbor made everything incredibly convenient, and the hotel's location--just minutes from Acadia National Park--couldn't have been better. My daughter and I enjoyed taking the shuttle to the sister property for morning yoga. We enjoyed all the beauty and adventure of the area while always looking forward to returning "home" to The Bayview each evening. A very special thank you to Vinet at the front desk, the manager, Chef Tricia, and every member of the team. You each made us feel truly special. The level of hospitality you provide has really set the bar. Our week flew by. We left feeling refreshed, spoiled, and already talking about when we can come back. Thank you, The Bayview, for giving our family what was truly our best family vacation yet. We can't recommend this hotel highly enough!

This is their number one asset, and they treat it that way. The room highlights the view perfectly, and the grounds are impeccable. - The room was nice, clean, and everything in it just right. The room cleaning staff was excellent. - The extra touches were a delight: chocolate strawberries for our 34th anniversary with a note, the water bottles, turn-down service with little gifts. Little touches like that around every corner. - The breakfast (and food in general) exceeded our expectation. Whoever they have in the kitchen is doing a bang-up job. - The front desk staff was gracious, helpful, and prompt. The concierge helped us with reservations and itinerary. Top notch. - The shuttle was great. It made the hotel's distance from downtown a non-issue. - We had a minor issue with an overly-enthusiastic dog (remember this is a pet-friendly hotel btw), but the staff and management handled it quickly and professionally, again making it a non-issue.
