Connie was sweet! Cooked my first live lobsters in the kitchenette ! Nemo's down the street was an very interesting bar to see.

Master Bedroom had a King Sized Bed. Guest Bedroom had Twin Beds. Both bathrooms had stall showers. Kitchen had refrigerator, microwave, dishwasher, cook top but no oven.
Kitchen area had a table and four chairs. Living room was open to the kitchen. An outside deck was large and connected to living room and master bedroom with a nice view of Bass Harbor harbor. Parking for two cars. The water's edge was about 100 feet with grass and trees and then a rocky edge.

We rented one of the self catering cottages. Although there were warning signs when we booked, no visitors after 9, we had explained that relatives might drop by during the day for a coffee or to meet up for a trip. Our stay was spoiled on day one when confronted by proprieter's passive / aggressive attitude when said brother in law duly arrived mid-afternoon to visit. We thought it was unfriendly, heavy handed, paranoid and spoilt the start of our holiday. As a consequence we spent very little time at the property during the rest of the week.

So, a rather expensive way to get 3 bedrooms for a week ($1700). The property was small, reasonably appointed and clean but was close to the 2 other properties and the B&B. It had the feel of a let in someone's back yard. Overall, in this lovely part of Maine, there will certainly be better value and more relaxed and welcoming options available so look around.

My husband came to Bass Harbor Cottages and Inn for our honeymoon. We are the outdoor-type so Maine was perfect for us. Connie let us check in about 4 hours early - which was a blessing. She walked us down to the Pine Cottages to make sure we had all that we needed. The cottage took us by surprise a bit - it had the feel of an old-fashion cottages that has been updated numerous times. It is a lovely place. During our stay the fireplace (which is the heat source) stopped working. Connie and her husband responded quickly to fix the problem. They advised us of a back up heat source and even gave us a certificate for a free dinner - which they didn't have to do, we were more than understanding!!!! The only things I would change - blinds on the large living room window, and a dvd player for a movie night. If you are the 4-star hotel type of person, you may want to look elsewhere. If you don't mind cozy, waterside, and don't need 24/7 service, this is the place for you.
