Such a lovely place to stay in Bar Harbor. Tucked away and private yet just one block away from everything. Sara the hostess was very kind and helpful with suggestions for where to go in Acadia NP. It was just perfect!

We really enjoyed our stay at Yellow House. Very close to Main Street, shopping, and dining. Sara, the breakfast, location, and snack/amenities were all fantastic. We did think the price was high for our room, Linzee, which didn’t seem to match the overall aesthetic and quality of the rest of rooms depicted in the photos.

Great choice. Beautiful and peaceful, friendly place. Great location - walk to the shore or shops. Loved sitting on the porch. Did not try the fire pit but a nice area was available. Large rooms. Just a great place to recharge your batteries.

The Yellow house Inn was the most perfect location in town. We were walking distance to all restaurants and water views! Sara is so sweet and accommodating. There are so many touches that make your stay that much more special. We will definitely be back.

The innkeeper, Sara, was very accommodating and pleasant. We stayed in the largest room which was very clean and fresh with a great bed. (no tub if that matters) The location was perfect for short walks to and around Bar Harbor and an easy drive to Acadia National Park. The most disappointing part of our stay was breakfast! If you’re looking for a fresh cooked breakfast, this is not the place. Stayed 4 mornings and had Hard Boiled eggs twice and quiche twice. Snacks and drinks were available 24/7. Visited the 1st week in October and this place isn’t cheap. All other areas of the Inn were very comfortable and relaxing. 7/10 rating for us who have visited B&B’s throughout the country.

We had a wonderful stay at the Yellow House Inn, it was the perfect place to stay in Bar Harbor. We found it very quiet and comfortable, and the breakfast and happy hour were great. It's only a short walk to dining and shopping in Bar Harbor, or a short drive to Acadia National Park. Very relaxing, we would definitely stay there again.

Beautiful property with lovely porches, flowers, rooms, and friendly staff. Continental breakfast at 8:00 am, but Coffee, yogurt, and granola available earlier, which we appreciated as early risers. Easy walk to all of downtown Bar Harbor, but off the busy, crowded, and loud streets.

We had an amazing visit to Bar Harbor, thanks in great part to the Yellow House Inn. It's super close / walkable to Main Street (where all the action is), and yet it feels secluded in the best way possible. Highly recommend!
