I liked that it is family owned and that Sean Gallagher, the owner, treated us like old friends. He gave us recommendations that made us feel connected to the local hangouts and community. That is what we look for, a way in to a local place. He gave us that. Well done!

Property clean and presentable and easy to find. Sean was friendly and welcoming and knows his surrounding well.
It was a basic room and small..

The location to the park is very nice. The front desk person was also very nice but no one was around several times. There were people waiting to check in. They tried to call but the phone would ring back to the office. The cabin was small. It was just my husband and I but we barely had room to move around with our luggage in the room. The overhead light would start flashing if we left it on for more than two minutes. The shower backed up. The bathroom and shower are tiny. No counter space in bathroom. Can barely shower without hitting your elbows. It was old but clean.

Needs a lot of updates. Not worth the money with all of the choices in the area. Very disappointed.

Allowed free use of their laundry
Gave great advice and recommendations
Negatives: the sheets are quite rough
So much rain this summer caused a very musty smell

I have had a great experience at Gallagher Travels. The property was very clean, quiet and i enjoyed staying there. I would like to say special thanks to Sean, the owner. Due to personal circumstances, i had to cancel the second night literally last minute. Sean understood my situation and was able to provide refund. Great place to stay and great service! Will definitely come back again.

Cabin was small, needed paint job on outside.No common area except porch so should only be used in warm weather.Bathroom was small. Clean and staff very accommodating.Overpriced for type of accommodation it was. Plumbing outside so a bit odd.

What a great location. So close to Acadia National Park entrance and Bar Harbor. Many good restaurants and Lobsters Pens nearby too. Peaceful at night and morning. A clean, yet spacious cabin. We would definitely stay here again

My husband and I were very happy with everything about our stay! We were warmly greeted at check-in and were given a brief overview of the area with transportation options and restaurant recommendations. The room was clean and comfortable. We are arthritic old folks and we slept like babies in a verycomfortablebed. There is wonderful outdoor space to sit and relax after a day of site-seeing. Downside? The bathroom was small. I would definitely stay here again and I will recommend this to my friends.

The hotel advertised as pet friendly and it was true. There is a dog pen and were two other dogs there, so mine had a play-mate. Also friendly front desk with helpful advice for area. The room could have been a little cleaner, but overall, very pleased.

Super nice people run it, very friendly guests and good vibe. The room just smells really musty and old. It was very clean, well maintained and spacious. Outdoor area included fenced area for dogs, chairs, cornhole game.

The location was great! It was closed to Acadia National Park. The room was clean but very basic. There was no cups in the room. The cabin was also in need of some upgrades. It was overpriced in my opinion

Stayed one night as a pit stop on the way home! Very basic but served our needs! Only suggestion would be to maybe include suggestions of places to eat!

Tell them you dont want room 15. There is a noise of sorts going off every so often. Cam in late everything's was ready. Good contact. Very convenient location to explor Bar Harbor.

Perfect location for visiting Acadia! Owners are super nice, great advice for park, allowed early checkin. Place is dog friendly too!!! King size bed either was ancient or just the boxspring because it squeaked and we felt a couple springs when we rolled over. 😂. Ask for room that has the newest bed. I would stay here again though. Reasonably priced. Did I say dog friendly?!😊

We really enjoyed our stay at the king cabin. The cabin space was perfect for us and our dog. We arrived late and the check in instructions were well communicated and easy. It's a close drive to Bar Harbor village and Acadia NP. Highly recommend staying here!

Seth was the Manager-in-attendance when I called early to confirm arrival and when I arrived. He was friendly, knowledgeable and helpful.
We rented Cabins #1 and #3. Number 1 was designed better than #3 in several ways that made it more comfortable and user friendly, however the bathrooms and showers are VERY small and tight-fitting. #3 also had miss-fitting and miss-aligned front and shower doors and a shelf above the too-high kitchen counter that is dangerous. Both cabins had power appliances connected to a power strip but, in #3, the appliances were on the upper shelf and so the cords did not reach the power strip and hung in the air under the counter -- very unsafe. Also in #3, the bed was pretty unsubstantial and not-at-all firm.

Sean Gallagher and his staff went way beyond expectations to make our stay was enjoyable. Will always stay here again. Everything was perfect.

Allowed us to check in a bit early to unload luggage and go to Bar Harbor after our drive. Front desk guy from Philly was extremely helpful in making recommendations for meals & sightseeing. Easy parking at our doorstep.

Overall, the cabin, facilities, etc. were great and I really enjoyed it. The drawback is visibility on the gravel drive surrounded by rocks. Adding to this, the driveway is unlighted and my wrong turn resulted in the loss of part of my bumper on one of the rocks (at only 5 mph!) A few strategically placed solar lights could have highlighted the rocks and the turnoff preventing this. My $300 cost me an extra $1100 in car repairs. If you go, and I still recommend you do--beware!

Friendly front desk. The room was small like a motel and the bathroom even smaller. Not sure if we’d stay here next time. The bedding seemed old and it just had an old motel vibe.

We had a very pleasant stay. The staff was helpful and nice. The establishment was very pet-friendly and even had a small fenced-in dog park that was perfect for our dog! Wonderful place to stay!!

This “motel” is very clean and comfortable. It was quite a bit less expensive than the other places 1 mile up the road, so I was not expecting much, but was very surprised and pleased. Fresh paint, comfy beds, big shower, no complaints, highly recommend

We enjoyed our stay in Gallagher’s Travel Cabin. It was a cute and rustic, little cabin that was perfect to come back to after big days hiking in Acadia! The cabin itself was dated, but was super clean and we appreciated how communicative the staff were! We’d definitely stay again!
