I checked into this hotel when I was visiting Acadia National Park. The hotel owner is a very nice couple. They are very friendly and accommodating. I noticed some other reviewers pointed out how terrible the hotel condition was -- the room itself didn't have a problem, it was clean and very cozy. Their main office looked like an antique shop, chaotic but in an organized fashion! If some reviewers wanted to have a crazy clean hotel room with modern decors in this area, they would have to pay at least double the rate this hotel offered. Nothing is perfect, and so this hotel has just the right balance between comfort and affordability. The owners are also trying their best to make improvements on the room every season. Thanks for hosting and keep it up!

Nice place, quite and some options to chose from as far as staying rooms. The owners/staff are friendly, the rooms are clean.

***Disclaimer: this review was written by a civilization deprived camper who had spent the last 6 days in in a tent during all sorts of inclement weather*** Needed a cheap place to stay the night, nothing fancy, just a place that wasn't a sleeping bag on the ground. This place was it. It's quaint at best, but run down is a better description. Water stains on the ceiling, wallpaper peeling, paint chipped, carpet a billion years old, but all very clean and neat. Coffee and bagels by 8 but never got them as I was gone by 5am. Wifi was non existent but I had 4G on my smartphone so I was too upset for one night. This place suited my needs.

Its 11pm, we are on route 1 driving from Boston to Acadia with no place to spend the night. Being too cheap/poor for a place in Bar Harbor we quickly googled (from stolen wireless of some other hotel) alternative options. This place came up and we called hesitatingly to see if they have vacancy on a saturday night and they did. The motel is ran by a sweet couple from their porch. They man (whose name i forgot) waited for us to check in around 11:30. Yes, the furniture was outdated and there was a weird stuffy smell in the room, but the service was pleasant, free basic bagel & coffee breakfast and cheap and easy last minute booking 15 miles from Acadia. Only down side the wireless is limited and only works from the porch of the office.

This is the charming, locally-owned motel/cottage setup we were hoping to find in Downeast Maine. We wanted to be close to Acadia to drive up for the famous Cadillac Mountain sunrise, but not so close that we had to pay a fortune. We got a cottage (bigger than a standard room) for just a little over $80 during the peak of the tourist season (albeit during the week). This is exactly the type of motel we were looking for - you don't get frills and fancy freebies, but you get a nice, clean room at an affordable rate and at a place with character and charm! The owner, Doug, was so helpful upon our arrival, giving us a recommendation of a good local seafood restaurant (Union River Lobster Pot) as well as hints of the best way to get to the park and up to the summit. The rooms are in need of some updates and fixes but nothing significant that got in the way of our stay (our room even had a full size refrigerator and microwave). Sure, there are some water stains and some loose wallpaper and a small hole in the screen door but that's not only what we expected but wanted. The linens and towers were clean and soft and the room was very clean. There is (supposedly) a light breakfast served at 8am (toast, coffee), but at 8:20am there still was no sign of life in the office. No coffee, no toast. Oh well, leftover seafood from the night before was a better breakfast anyway.... Pros: Cheap, charming, clean, great location Cons: Need some updates/repairs, Wifi doesn't always work in the rooms (sometimes it did, sometimes it didn't. We travel with a mobile hotspot but it wasn't a big deal but other reviewers are right about the wifi probably not working in some of the rooms - the apparently only have one router in the house), still no coffee at 8:20am.

The motel looks cute and quaint from the outside, with light green/blue paint on exterior, and a parking space in front of each unit. Parking lot was tiny; I have a small compact car and I was afraid it wouldn't be able to squeeze past the car parked in the first spot to get to ours. The room was clean and dust-free on pretty much all surfaces (which is quite rare), but at the same time, dingy: the bathroom walls had peeling and ripped wallpaper in several places. The ceiling suffered obvious water damage (roof leaks) in the past, as evidenced by the peeling paint and masking tape on ceiling. The rusty radiator in bathroom makes the bathroom ithe warmest part of the room when you turn on the heat. Another off-putting thing about the bathroom was that it didn't have linoleum glued onto the floor. Rather, the linoleum was cut into three pieces and laid on top of the floor, so the sides were curling up from heat exposure. Why bother doing something at all if it's not going to be done right? There is NO wi-fi in the room. Only the main building, where the office/check-in is, has wi-fi, and "sometimes," parts of the communal driveway area and on the porch. The only thing is, in the office, there are no seats, so if you want to use your laptop, you'd have to put it on the breakfast table against the wall, and crouch over it. Not an ideal (or ergonomic) situation for using for more than a few minutes, unless you're immune to neck and back pain. We ended up finding a cafe with wifi the next morning. We were only planning on staying a night and moving onto the next city/state on our trip, but just in case, we asked if they had availability the next night. We were told that if we booked through them directly, the rate would be something like $10-15 cheaper than if we booked through Expedia again. This dingy hotel provided the most luxurious, soft and fluffy bath towel that I had during my entire New England trip; it was much more so than the so-called "luxury towel" that Exeter Inn provided with a red ribbon tied around it. How ironic. Maybe the towel is so soft because not as many people stay at Homestead as at Exeter; hence, the towel remains in better condition. One great bonus about Homestead was that its cable TV channels included the Food Network. Homestead is truly a no-frills budget hotel. We paid $69.60 (before taxes) for a Wednesday night. If all you care about is a bed and a shower, by all means, go for it. Just forget about the internet and remember to bring shower slippers.
