About The Primrose

Twelve steps from the village green on Mount Desert Street, The Primrose occupies a classic Bar Harbor inn address where Acadia National Park's carriage roads begin less than a mile inland. A 9.7 rating across 201 reviews places it among the highest-scored properties on the island.

Bar Harbor's Main Street shops and whale-watch docks sit a short walk east; Jordan Pond trailhead is a ten-minute drive. Mount Desert Island's coastal loop road passes within three blocks, making early-morning wildlife drives straightforward without the usual parking scramble.

The surrounding neighborhood stays quieter than the waterfront blocks yet keeps the free Island Explorer shuttle stop nearby for car-free access to the park's main trailheads.
