Property Overview

Minutes from the Hulls Cove entrance to Acadia National Park and bustling downtown Bar Harbor, Salt Cottages is a lively seaside haven for vacation. We offer a rare combination of resort activities and amenities with plenty of cottage and hotel lodging options, coastal style, and luxe details. All this in a stylish retreat overlooking Frenchman Bay.

We’ve transformed a collection of charming Bar Harbor cottages into a lively resort complete with a swimming pool, on-site snack bar, and lots of activities. The result is a chic take on the classic Maine vacation experience complete with outdoor seating areas that showcase the stunning water views. If you prefer to create your own fun, we offer a variety of grab-and-go food options to fuel you up for an action-packed day of taking on all the greatest Acadia adventures and the best things to do on Mount Desert Island.

Dining

Picnic, Salt Cottages’ onsite eatery, makes dining easy and delicious! With an online ordering option, you can grab fresh, locally inspired meals to enjoy wherever you like—on the patio, by the fire pit, or in your cottage. The menu features tasty bites like sandwiches, salads, and comfort food favorites, plus sweet treats to top it off. Whether you’re fueling up or winding down, Picnic has you covered!

Rooms

Salt Cottages offers a variety of coastal-chic accommodations, from private seaside cottages to bungalow-style hotel rooms. Each features a soothing design, private bathroom, and thoughtful comforts for a relaxing Mount Desert Island getaway.

The Cottages offer the feel of a private vacation home, with charming outdoor spaces, trellises, and white picket fences, while still providing access to resort amenities and easy access to Acadia National Park.

For a more traditional hotel stay, the Bungalow-Style rooms feature private entrances, patios, and stunning views of Frenchman Bay. These single-level accommodations are ideal for couples, families, or groups traveling together who want the convenience of staying close without sharing a room.
