Absolutely amazing place to stay.
Absolutely wonderful bed and breakfast to stay at. My wife kept saying it was THE best part of her trip to Maine. Exceptional service from both the host and waitstaff during the gourmet breakfast. VERY comfortable bed that you could be in all day and obviously all night. Delicious breakfast and all day snacks.

Loved it!
We loved our stay at the Clefstone! The staff was so kind, helpful, and available for anything you might need. We loved the fresh afternoon snacks after coming back from hiking each day and fresh coffee in the morning. We stayed in room #1 and it was the perfect size with a very comfy bed. Would love to stay here again!

It's amazing that the house was once a single family home. We slept like a rock. The bed was very comfortable.
The breakfasts were very good, the coffee could have been hotter though.

Couple's Trip to Maine, Wonderful place and people
As soon as we walked in we were greeted by the innkeeper, Steffan. What an amazing guy! Immediately made us feel welcomed and used his knowledge of the area to give us some great tips. Throughout the weekend, he and the staff working at Cleftstone were incredibly helpful and friendly. The room and its specially made wallpaper was absolutely beautiful. The breakfast served each morning was the perfect size and delicious both days. Although traveling from Boston can be a bit of a long drive, staying at the Cleftstone made the journey worth it. Thanks to Steffan and all the staff who work there for brilliant stay in Bar Harbor!

The Cleftstone Inn is a beautiful property. It's an older hotel but it's been updated and the rooms are really nice. Parking is right outside the main entrance. They have a homemade breakfast that varies from day to day that was really delicious. Acadia is just a short drive away so it's really convenient. We would definitely stay there again.
