Property Description
The Coach Stop Inn bed and breakfast was built in 1804, and combines the best of old-world charm with modern luxuries.Near the entrance to Acadia National Park in Bar Harbor, ME. The convenient location makes it easy to get to all that Mt. Desert Island and Acadia National Park have to offer. Coach Stop is known to be Bar Harbor's oldest inn, originally a stagecoach stop and Halfway Tavern in those early days. It was used to host early newcomers to the island - newcomers
who came to build homes, establish farms and build fishing schooners. Travelers arriving by boat and wanting to go inland to visit or look for a place to settle would also take advantage of all that such a tavern had to offer - rooms, drink and companionship. Regular stagecoach service began in Maine after the Revolutionary War. The stagecoach routes
followed the old post roads and so it was natural to have the taverns used as stage stops and they were often the first ''post offices'' in the area. This made them popular gathering places for local people to come and get the news and visit with their neighbors.
The current Bed & Breakfast is possibly the oldest house still standing, being the only lodging establishment to survive the Fire of 1947. Beautiful wide plank hardwood floors and original beams are throughout the first floor in the parlor, dining room and first floor guest room adorn this traditional Cape. The OWNER's HOUSE onsite offers 3 bedrooms, 2 baths, open concept kitchen/living/dining room, deck off the living room and primary bedroom, heated, oversize 2 car garage. This property is a gem!
