This was such a charming and cozy place to stay. It was very clean and comfortable, and the location was very close to all of the happenings in Bar Harbor. I would definitely stay here again!
Everyone at the property was super nice, and you can absolutely tell how much work is being put in! The cabin was clean and updated. Loved having a kitchen to cook in after a day of hiking! Unfortunately, I contracted hot tub folliculitis from the hot tub, and I got a painful rash all over my body. Other than that, everything was great.
We had an amazing time staying in the cabins. The women who worked in the office were so friendly and helpful. The cabin was clean. We would definitely stay there again.
Staff was wonderful plus some !
Cabin a bit musty but opened windows & everything was great.
Cabin was very clean & bed was comfortable !!!
Loved the girl that checked us in -
Little confusion on my part & she couldn’t have been sweeter ❤️
AND… they just put in a pool !
I thoroughly enjoyed my stay. Nice, quiet tucked away in the woods but close enough to restaurants and various other creature comforts in nearby Bar Harbor. I even extended my stay by a day and that was also hassle free. Y’all rock!

The pull out sofa bed is extremely uncomfortable. The toilet leaked urine and there was no fan in the bathroom.
This had to be one of the cleanest places that I have stayed. It is a rustic cabin with modest decorations.

We were lucky to find this last minute accommodation. We were traveling and it was late at night. Dreamwood had one cottage available and it was perfect. It was clean and very comfortable. I highly recommend dreamwood cottages.

This place has a lot of potential but needs some work. Cabin 17 has a very strong mildew odor. The key for the door doesn't work properly. The first key wouldn't open the door, and the second key required spending 5-10 minutes trying to jiggle the key to get the door unlocked. The temperatures were in 50f-60f range during our visit, and bathroom was cold. There is a HVAC Split in Main Room, but its install location makes the corner of the room really hot, and the rest of cabin considerabl

Wanted to like it, but not worth the price
Stayed in cabin 9. Room was clean, but the hot tub was digusting with a layer of brown slime. The hot tub didn’t get very hot and apparently was put into sleep mode by prior occupants. Fixed, once I complained the next night, but only got one night of use out of 3. The bed was very uncomfortable on one side because there were no supports due to a trundle bed underneath. First night we froze as there were no instructions on how to turn the heat on. Poor communication overall. Water pressure was weak and you had to run the water for 20 minutes before it got hot enough to shower. Very expensive for what you get, stay at a reputable hotel instead.

Close but pretty quiet
We have a newly remodeled cottage and it was very nice and clean! The staff we encountered were friendly. The roads on property were a bit rough but at lease the cottage we stayed in was lovely and would stay there again. Only about a 5-10 min drive into bar harbor and about 10-17 min from Acadia national park.

I accidentally booked a room that was not pet friendly, they made the transition to a pet friendly room simple and quick! There was so much room for my husband and I, and our 2 dogs! The location was perfect.

Hinckleys was just what we needed as a base camp for pur Acadia Adventure. Less than a 5 minute drive to the visitor center and 10 minutes to downtiwn bar harbor.
Checkin was a breeze. Amenities were fully sticked in the room upon arrival.
Im unsure if the hot tub was properly cleaned because it had an algae smell on the 2nd night. Also, the driveways are all gravel and the site has a lot of potholes so beware of your tires!
Overall a greta stay and would recommend for families.

I absolutely loved the renovated cottage number 7 I stayed in! The shower was amazing and the private hot tub on the back deck was so relaxing! The guy at the front desk was very pleasant as well…..I will definitely stay again next year :)

Dog friendly cabins near Bar Harbor
A very dog friendly venue, which was a key consideration in my selection. The cabins are fine. While near a main road road (Rt 3), the traffic noise was not bad. The kitchen/dining area was pretty small, but fine for simple food prep. There were outdoor grills and tables ( which we didn’t use). As a base to go to the park and into Bar Harbor for meals, it worked out well. There was space to walk the dog around near the cabins under the trees, on the grass and in some small wooded areas. The property is undergoing some upgrades ( as of Sept 2025).
