Elsa's Inn on the Harbor Details
Nestled in the quaint fishing village of Prospect Harbor, Elsa's Inn on the Harbor provides a welcoming retreat on Maine's scenic Schoodic Peninsula, just a short distance from Acadia National Park's less-traveled Schoodic Woods section. Housed in a historic 1850s building, this six-bedroom bed and breakfast exudes classic coastal charm. It offers a glimpse into the region's past, providing a comfortable, intimate setting for guests. Staying here allows you to immerse yourself in the tranquil rhythm of a working harbor. Guests can easily access the rugged beauty of Schoodic Woods for hiking, cycling, and kayaking, or simply relax and enjoy the peaceful surroundings. Beyond the inn, explore the nearby villages of Winter Harbor and Corea, or take a scenic day trip to the bustling Bar Harbor and the main section of Acadia National Park.
