Bar harbor hotels are very expensive. This place met our basic requirement of a good bed, clean, and good value. The room can be a little tight for luggage, but we put what we needed in the dresser and put our luggage back in the trunk. Rooms are kept very clean and owners were very nice to chat with. More

Stayed for a couple nights in August 2011. The location is great - just outside Dessert Island & very close to Acadia NP. Its a good 20-25 minute drive to Bar Harbor but get to avoid all the people that can overcome Bar Harbor during the summer season. We stayed in one of the cottages, which are on the small... More

My hubby and I stayed at the hotel for two nights. The rooms are small but extremely clean with comfortable linens and a dated bathroom. The beds are comfortable, and the morning coffee is awesome. The only concrens were the hot water, it ran out the first morning, and couldnt maintain a regular tempurature the second. The other is the... More

The Isleview Motel & Cottages is located in Trenton, Maine, very close to Bar Harbor. The Isleview is a small locally owned business. They keep the property in good shape and the rooms are always clean. Yes, they are small rooms and cottages, but nice. We actually stayed in the motel portion of the Isleview and thought the rate was... More

We arrived to a gruff welcome, but the owner warmed up a little when we asked where the best lobster was to be found. She suggested 3 places and we went to her first choice right across the street. It was excellent! We wish we could say as much for the room which stank from over use of "carpet fresh".... More

We are currently trying to upgrade our rooms to the best of our financial ability as we are a family run business and what little profit we make goes right back into the property. The room you stayed in was upgraded with brand new mattresses two weeks before your arrival plus this year we added a 32" flat screen tv... More

My wife and I enjoyed our one-night stay at this cottage. we stayed there in May but the weather was so cold that we had to turn on the heater. All in all, the place is well-kept (well obviously it is a family-run business) and equipped with every single thing the guest needs. Yes, the cottage room (I am talking... More

I was a little worried staying there since this property is not AAA approved. I need not worry. It was quaint, clean and a great location. The staff was friendly as well and offered a small continental breakfast too. Also, if you want to eat some lobster while in the Bar Harbor area, there are three lobster shacks very nearby. More

We just got back from Isleview yesterday. We stayed 3 nights celebrating our 25th wedding anniversary. We stayed in cabin #2 and it looks exactly like the picture. This is such a nice place to stay. The owner is on premise and is very helpful. She told us some great places to eat and she was right on target. There... More

Our family found the Isleview to be a great value. Rooms are on the older side and small, but are very clean. The cottages nicely spaced, not crammed as some other are. We mostly needed a clean economical place to sleep at night while we spent FULL days in Acadia. This motel/cottage establishment totally fit the bill. We found the... More
