An outstanding home base for a week in Acadia. 20 minutes from everything youâll want to explore, itâs the perfect spot for easy access to Bar Harborâs vibrant town, with its restaurants and shops. Whether you're looking to take on some of the area's most famous hikes or visit iconic spots like Thunder Hole and Jordan Pond, Nonie's Nest puts you right in the middle of it all.
For dining, youâre spoiled for choice. Just five minutes away, we enjoyed Traveling Lobsterâ5 lobsters, 5 corn, 2 lbs mussels, 1 lb clams, all for $115. If youâre in the mood for bbq, Mainly Meatâs is less than 10 min away. Itâs a dog-friendly venue, where we savored the Max Platter for $79, more than enough to feed our family.
The cottage is a gem. Itâs clear that the owner has thoughtfully equipped the home with everything you might need. We brought our dog, who had a blast in the yard. My son, a l bird photographer, was thrilled by the variety of species attracted to the nearby body of water, which offers a fascinating experience with its 9-foot tide changes.
Evenings were spent roasting marshmallows, easily started with kindling found in the woods. The beds were comfortable, the house was clean, and the kitchen was perfect for breakfastâsaving us the expense of dining out. lunches, we packed pb&j for hikes and saved our splurges for dinner at favorites like Abelâs, Thurstonâs, and Bealâs. If u want to save 1/2 try going over the bridge/off island for dinner
highly recommend Nonnieâs Nest!
