"The Balance Rock Inn in Bar Harbor is just about as good as it gets, with a fantastic bar and patio overlooking the Porcupine Islands, live piano music a couple nights a week, and a location just steps from all that Bar Harbor has to offer. Ask for one of the rooms with water views and a private sauna—there’s no better way to relax after a day of hiking." - Todd Plummer
