    It's not often that "what you see is what you get", but with Clark Point Inn that's exactly what happened. What you see on their website is exactly what we experienced. Jennifer and Mark were fabulous hosts, the rooms were wonderful, the Inn is very well kept, and the breakfasts were out of this world. We even had some chocolate dipped strawberries to help us celebrate our 15 year anniversary! We would highly recommend this Inn as a great alternative to busy Bar Harbor and in the off season, the short 15 minute drive into Bar Harbor felt like nothing. Thanks so much!


    A wonderful inn on the quiet side of MDI with beautiful views

    Beautiful, cozy inn in Southwest Harbor. We were warmly welcomed and shown to a beautiful room, Benjamin Jacob. It was clean as can be, a crisp blue with touches of white and yellow. Anything you could want was available in the room as well as a small reading library and DVD collection. There is a large shower in the three piece bathroom and coordinating colored towels not the standard white of most motels. The home is charming victorian in style but has all modern conviences. Breakfast was a fantastic event each morning with three courses of unique combinations that left your not just satisfied but stuffed. I will be back and have already booked a trip as a gift for later this summer.

    My partner and I visited maine to see the fall colors. Our trip was made even more enjoyableby our stay at Clark Point Inn, with marvelous food, including chocolate chip cookies for an evening snack. Mark & Jen are gracious hosts and yes the colors at the inn matched the gorgeous fall foliage.
