We stayed in the Junior “Deluxe” Cabin aka 5A. The pictures online were not associated to any cabin they just have all the pictures on the site, or was labeled by name instead of number so you really don’t know what you’re getting. We asked our neighbors and they said they didn’t get what they booked either. The pictures I saw associated to our cabin, showed a full kitchen and we only had a microwave and mini fridge. There’s about 2 inches of clearance above and below the door so you could see outside. The water pex pipes to the cottage are ran above ground. There was no hand soap so we asked for some and they said they were out and getting some the next day. They never brought it we got our own.
They did have some very nice looking cabins online but buyer beware. We will definitely be back to bar harbor but not back to Hinckley’s. We did book because it was cheaper but not that much cheaper. It really put a damper on our stay and we almost cut our losses and went somewhere else. It was smaller than a super 8. There is a communal fire pit that was under repair and the pool looked like it had never been serviced before.

Cabin number eight smelled musty. The air freshener we bought didn’t help at all. Curtains were dirty. Stains on the wallpaper. It wasn’t cheap either. I’d take a pass on Hinckleys until they clean up all of their cabins.

Cottage 6 was clean and newly renovated, the beds were comfortable, the bathroom was clean and the kitchen had everything we needed. Wi-FI was capable of looking up what I needed, pool looks like they are fixing it but that wasn’t a need for our stay. I would stay here again.

We really enjoyed the cabins and being in the woods right on the edge of Bar Harbor!

It was beautiful and quiet and the woman working the office was fabulous. Absolutely plan on returning. Perfect for families or people without children. Can’t say enough good things about this place.

It could be easy to list all the things this property wasn't... instead I'll concentrate on what it was. My first unit was renovated... simple, no frills but checked off every anticipated box.
So much so that when my visit expired, i asked for an additional day. I was offered 2 units, one renovated and one rustic. I took rustic and saves 75$. It was just fine. Reminded me of the cottage from the 50s...1 room plus bathroom.
Money was reasonable for the area... not going to get cheaper unless you're using a tent. That is the facts. Wonderful interactions with management too!

This is a refurbished property with many little cabins like you had in the 50's and 60's. Our cabin had wood paneling and a mice kitchenette. It was in good repair and comfortable. The tiny porch was screened in and pleasant . Staff were friendly and helpful.

Our first night stay at the property was horrible! We checked in to a smelly and not clean room.
The sheet and pillow cover had stain and was not clean! The AC was old and working properly.
The next morning got in touch with Expedia customer service to request a refund and to move us to another hotel!
After couple of phone calls with customer service and discussing the poor condition of the room the guest service at the property offered us another room for the additional two days/ nights of our stay. The new room was very clean and did not have any issues. It seems the property was acquired by a new owner and they are doing renovations one cottage at a time. So your stay experience differs by the cottage is given to you!
Location was good as it is about 10 min drive to Bar Harbor and very close to Acadia park entrance.

As picture illustrates property appears pre WW2 but rooms kept up surprisingly very well, Bath room especially - very cheerful, modern and clean. "Kitchen" definitely quite small but more than adequate and nicely stocked for 4. Outdated Curtains need to be replaced. Bed was comfortable. Outside the property was in need of work. Tree roots heaved the pavement so badly that 5MPH was literally the max tolerable speed. Office personnel very responsive and helpful.

Not as advertised. Property is in a state of disrepair. Swimming pool not functional. A tree fell on one of the cabins and has not been cleaned up. This place has seen better days.

Its an older property and that's just a fact. Having said that, we had a very good experience. Two separate bedrooms with bunkbeds in one for the kids. Also a small functional kitchen with stove, fridge and microwave, as well as glassware and utensils. This cabin was ideal for families.

Our cottage was extremely old and showed it! Don’t believe the photos in advertisements! Apparently a few cottages have been updated but not ours!

Very thankful the staff was able to accommodate a late check in request the evening of my arrival. It was extremely helpful as I was meeting friends in the area, and our plans went later than we originally thought they would.

Our family really enjoyed the cabin as it was close to the entrance to Acadia National Park and Bar Harbor. It was nice to be able to cook meals in the kitchen which was stocked with cookware, dishes, and utensils.

Cute little cottage- the pictures showed a screened in porch- all the other cottages had one except the one we got. We loved the inside so we decided to just take the one we had. It was nice 👍

The room smells terrible, it has not been lived for a while, it’s very wet. AC not effective, and loud.

There was one good thing for this place. Easy access to Bar harbor.
Everything else was way below average.
Do not expect anything.

Great stay about 10 min away from Acadia national park and bar harbor downtown

The place was ok if you were going to pay around 1000 for the week but not 1600. It smelled a bit moldy and was ok enough. I wouldn’t stay again. There’s a lot nicer places to stay for about the same amount. It’s just one of those things you learn after you’ve visited for your first time.

We ended up checking in and then leaving & going to Hampton Inn in Bar Harbor. The photos in the ad were very misleading. When we arrived after dark, the front porch at Cabin 1 light was not working & we had a hard time seeing to get into cabin. The furniture in main area was very worn. There were bugs in bedrooms, and the entire cabin smelled very bad, musty & moldy.
The swimming pool was covered with tarp & had concrete blocks holding them down. We asked for a refund even for day 2 of our stay, but got no response from management. Stay away from these cabins.

Stay was ok, property being refreshed so pool is closed.

The place was clean. Property definitely needs some trees removed and many repairs throughout. For example, the hot water handle broken on shower. Unsatisfied with this . No coffee maker as advertised, Small fixes that make a difference. Cottage 5, not worth it. Early in season, had all winter to get right

The lady on the desk was the only good thing that happened to us on this stay. She was very pleasant. There were a lot of things we were displeased about. The cottage we stayed was very old, the screen on the porch was broken. Cold air was coming in on side with the AC unit as it was only covered by a board. My son’s bathroom had inverted hot/cold controls which took him a while and wasted too much water. The other bathroom sink knobs were rusty. It was totally not we expected from what was posted from Expedia. Although, the other bedroom was newly painted and only the walls looked clean. Overall, I have to give 1 STAR just for the front desk lady! Can’t endorse this place at all!!!
