About this property

#20: Stunning Acadia Lodge w/AC (Open Hearth Inn)

Lodge 20 is a lovely spacious room on the 2ND-FLOOR of the Lodge Building with two queen beds, a full bath, refrigerator, microwave, coffee pot, A/C, cable, television, full-sized futon, iron/ironing board, hairdryer, and free Wi-Fi. This room is perfect for groups of up to 4 guests. All our guests have full access to the indoor kitchen downstairs in the main building, the outdoor kitchen and grill, full access to the common use hot tub, and the bonfire pit on the back lawn.

Pet Policy:

Here at Open Hearth Inn we welcome your four-legged family member. However, we ask you to help us with the following pet rules while staying with us.

1. Please don't leave your pet in the rooms unattended.

Why? Because they miss you and from our experience of being professional hosts since the 90's, when they are lonely they howl or bark causing others to lose the quiet enjoyment on the property. Lonely pets also use the bed or other furniture to snuggle on while you are away. This is super tough for our housekeepers to remedy because blankets or comforters need to be washed or replaced, also furnishings can take hours to remove hair from so we can present a clean space for the next guest.

Maine is a very pet friendly place and since you brought them on vacation we hope you keep them with you so they can enjoy "Vacation Land" as much as humans do.

2. Please pick up all the poop/excrement they may have.

3. Please have your pup on a leash when enjoying the common areas.

4. Please try to refrain your dog from barking.

We have dog treats, extra poo bags and a water bowl in the common room.

*There will be an additional cleaning fee charged if your pet makes a mess of the room or the bedding. We hope that you and your four-legged family member have a great stay here at Open Hearth Inn.

No other notes. Feel free to ask any questions. :)
Simply self-check-in properties. Customer service is available 24/7. Feel free to message and we will get back to you within two hours. :)
Trenton is the town just off of Mount Desert Island which is home to Acadia National Park and Bar Harbor. We are just a mile from the first park picnic area and shortly after the fabled trails of Acadia including Beehive, Precipice, Cadillac Mtn, Beech Mtn, Little Long Pond, and all the popular tours like boating, puffins, lobstering, and lighthouses! It's an adventurer's paradise and that is exactly why we bought the Open Hearth Inn ;).

Free parking right outside your door! Bakery and Lunts Lobster shop within about a 1 min walk just across the road. Trenton is the gateway to Acadia and the park starts just half a mile down the road!
Located on Route 3 at the head of Mount Desert Island, The Open Hearth Inn is 12 miles to Bar Harbor, 9 miles to Acadia National Park, 15 miles to Bass Harbor Head Light, 12 miles to Southwest Harbor, 8 miles to Ellsworth, 35 miles to the Schoodic Peninsula of Acadia National Park, 36 miles to Bangor, 65 miles to Camden and 163 miles to Portland.

A gorgeous part of The Open Hearth Inn, the lodges are spacious open rooms perfect for 4 guests to relax and rest after a long day of hiking.

Parking is available in front of the lodges.

The basis of the Open Hearth Inn is the main house, built in the 1820's it's best known for its historic charm. One of 20 rooms and everyone has plenty of space to stretch outside, gather in the old hearth room and play some board games, stretch out on the couch and watch movies on the common use 70" tv, make some new friends, and explore the real reason we call it 'Ohana'.

Experience the beauty of Mount Desert Island without the hustle and bustle of downtown Bar Harbor while still being fairly close to anything you could possibly need for the best Maine adventure. NO matter the time of year; spring, summer, autumn, or winter The Open Hearth will always be waiting for you.

Wonderful base camp for weekend on MDI
Favorite parts were Thornton, free laundry, access to full kitchen and the rooms. I wish it was ground floor as I was on crutches but that meant it was quiet without anyone above us.

Nice property; close to Acadia National Park
Good, clean property for 2. Could do up to 4 as there are two beds. Close to Bar Harbor and Acadia Nat'l Park. We ran into a major traffic jam going back to the property from Bar Harbor. It was people heading home at the end of a holiday weekend. Not the property's fault, just wanted to inform.

First Trip to Acadia
The property was as described and in close proximity to both Acadia and Bar Harbor. I didn't know anything about the area and chose this property based on reviews. I was not disappointed.

Overall the property is very nice. We took a vantage of the kitchen and the outdoor grill and made several meals. My children enjoyed the lawn games and the fire pit.

This unit could use some love
I can’t speak to the cottages. We stayed one of the 4 units above a garage building. It’s old and we knew that. But it could use some love. There seems to be a shortage of electricity. The lights were constantly going dim and our A/C until slowed every time an A/C unit (I presume) kicked off and on in the building. Beds were fine. Towels were a bit thin, but I grabbed some better ones from the laundry area in the lodge (basically a large house). You do have open access to the lodge which has kitchen, laundry, sitting areas, etc. I met one staff member and she was super nice. Biggest complaint was we got some outdated email saying “come into the lodge and find your key”. Well we got in at 9:45 and no key, no one around, and phone number in the email was disconnected. So we're freaking out at this point. Turns out we were supposed to be given a door code through VRBO which never came. Luckily the door was unlocked when we checked it. Bottom line, it was a value price and a value experience.

It's an old building and has some quirks but we were comfortable and felt very safe.
