We spent a week at Emery's Cottages and it was exactly what we were looking for. The cottage was impecably clean and furnished with everything you would ever need. It's conveniently located (about 5 miles outside of downtown Bar Harbor and ~2 miles to one of the main entrances of Acadia National Park) and easy to get to. The ocean... More

Got to say I've never been to Maine and did not know what expect....I was more than pleasantly surprised by everything I encountered. The cottage was perfect for what we needed- clean, comfortable and convenient, the owners friendly and helpful. If you want fancy don't stay here! But you will miss the stunning sunsets every night from the beach. They... More

My wife and I stayed here for 4 nights on our recent trip to Bar Harbor and Acadia National Park. It's a great location for exploring the area. We enjoyed being away from downtown and all the traffic and crowds. Really laid back place to stay and chill. It was clean and our host and hostess were very helpful with... More

Definitely DO bring your kids to Emery's. Wally and the staff are very welcoming to us every year. We started staying there when our son was seven years old and battling the often-times VERY unpleasant behaviours associated with Autism. Not a negative word was ever spoken to us nor an eyebrow raised even when things got a little loud and... More

We also had a great week at the cottage. Like others said, totally perfect, quiet, clean and wonderful hosts. Did not get a chance to sit outside much since the temperatures were pretty much in the low forties and fifties while we were there. If you are planning to go in May you may want to consider that some restaurants... More

Super cordial hosts who were very helpful and informative reference local history, geography and area restaurants including lobster pounds. They also provide hot coffee in the mornings. A quiet cottage setting overlooking Frenchman's Bay that offers beautiful sunsets at day's end. Cottages are immaculate and reasonably priced . If you like peace and quiet and natue.............Emery's will be a good... More

My wife and I stayed in cottage 2A and it was wonderful, relaxing and the location is convenient to Acadia and Bar Harbor. I have nothing but good things to say, the owners are very friendly,the cottages were clean and the property spotless. We can't wait till next June when we plan on returning.

Well maintained, clean and with very comfortable accomodation, from the minute we arrived we felt welcome with the warm greetings from our hosts. Nothing was too much trouble and all our needs were catered for and then some. We stayed in a cottage with a well stocked kitchen. The site had a great beach with bbq facilities and a picnic... More

We love Emery's. We have stayed there many years, and this is what we consider Heaven. After the first few days of the first years stay, Wally and Carol were like family. I can not imagine better hosts. Everything has always been spotless, and well kept, and anything we ask about is provided. We have stayed in various cottages at... More

We stayed in cottage 16 - queen bed with kitchenette - for a long weekend and loved it. The cottages are in a quiet area north of Bar Harbor. The owners Wally & Carol were very nice and offered suggestions of places to go, things to do. We will definitely be back.
