Cozy, warm, full of sunlight, superclean little cottage. Enough space for comfortable and romantic weekend for two people. Several minutes from the center of Bar Harbor. Quiet and safe.

Hanscom's was a DELIGHT! We had never been to Bar Harbor & our stay at Hanscom's helped us have the perfect visit. The rooms have been recently & expertly decorated. Their interior designer is a genius because everything fit perfectly. There is a purpose behind every single detail, yet the furnishings are beautiful. It's minimalist decor because of the size, but it doesn't feel minimalist. We had 2 different types of rooms. One for us & one for our 3 kids. Our room had a queen bed, 2 bedside tables, a full size comfortably chair, a bench at the foot of the bed, a full-size chest for the TV & a collapsible leather folding chair PLUS a bar height mini island with 2 stools. That mini island served as both a table for quick meals & a workstation for my husband. Our kids' room also had a queen bed, but instead of the 2 chairs, there was a full size 3 cushion sofa that pulled out to a queen sofa bed. 2 bedside tables for the queen bed & 2 end tables for the sofa. This room had a little dining table with a few chairs that tucked perfectly against the wall. Both rooms had full bathrooms with showers, no tub. We don't use tubs & don't require them while traveling, so not an issue for us. Both rooms were furnished with efficiency kitchens that we put to use! They were perfect for making light meals. The small fridge/freezers were also extremely helpful. Each room had a keurig & came with 4 regular coffee pods & 2 decaf. Creamer & sugar/sugar substitute provided. Each kitchen had literally everything you need to cook a light meal. Decent knives, a few pots & pans, cutting board, utensils. Microwaves & electric cooking ranges in the rooms, no ovens. The towels were wonderful!!!!! Bed linens were good. Mattresses could use a refresh in terms of comfort, but we made do & it didn't keep up from thoroughly enjoying our stay! We also loved having the fire pit & corn hole.

I checked under the bed before we left to make sure I didn’t drop anything under there… yikes! Lots of dust and spider webs under the chair. The window in the bathroom was also broken (the mechanism to open the window). Nothing was a deal breaker though - it still was a really great stay!

Loved the location and ease of check in! Love that there is a fire pit and grills. Overall we LOVED our stay and will absolutely be back!! Very dog friendly and that was a huge plus!!

Great location away from busy Bar Harbor, but still close enough to get to the park and restaurants quickly. Charming old-school cottages, but updated inside to current tastes. Very clean.

The water in the bathroom was brown at times.

Very updated, cute decor! Love the option for the fire pits and grill out doors.

There was no personal contact. Everything was done via phone ( like COVID times). That said, when I texted questions the hosts got right back to me. Cost seemed a little high, but probably comparable to others in the region with post COVID inflation.

Hanscom’s was very close to Acadia and Bar Harbor, very handy. The cottage was clean and bright with good water ( temperature, taste and pressure). The bed was good.

People can’t smoke in the rooms but they can on the property. A smoker was anchored to their gorgeous outdoor space during a portion of our stay, so we couldn’t use it (thanks awful allergies). The room was so, so beautiful and comfortable but the shower was itty bitty! I felt like a jerk for the folks next to us from hitting the walls with my elbows. I don’t doubt I woke up our neighbors. I couldn’t bend over to shave my legs, which was annoying but I have to admit, I did laugh at the ridiculousness of the situation.

Beautiful studio room in a gorgeous tree filled location. Quiet and quaint and great price for the area. Dedicated parking per room was a great perk. Very comfortable beds with soft linens throughout. I loved the outdoor extras (hammock, fire place with wood provided, BBQ, yard games, etc). In room Keurig with decent coffee as well. My in laws room had the cutest retro fridge!

Stayed in September 2024

No silverware? That seemed odd. Scrambled for plastic forks etc from takeaway places nearby. I would have loved a better coffee experience. Just better local coffee. That would have made it special. Not sure if the nearby beach access right of way was accurately depicted. Rocky is OK but I was not expecting a climb.

Cute, clean, comfortable. Nice outside options.

Nothing.

It was ver close to Bar Harbor. Even though it was on a busy street. It was very quiet.

Stayed in September 2024

Great location 2 miles to Arcadia National Park. 6 miles to the center of Bar Harbor. Fire pit with chairs, wood included. 4 tenth of a mile walk to the ocean, no beach but for fishing it looked great. The room was clean and the kitchenette was well stocked with basic pots and pans. A great deal for the money.
