Location + Nearby
Dine alfresco at the picnic table to savor the sunset! Visit J&P’s farm market to pick up fresh eggs and local fruits for breakfast. Don’t feel like cooking at home? Stroll to Gateway Lunt’s Lobster Pound, Downeast Lobster Pound, or Trenton Bridge Lobster Pound.
We have the luxury of being just feet from the bridge that leads to MDI and Acadia National Park but that also means that we are on the main artery that leads to the park. It gets busy with road traffic from Route 3 and air traffic from the small BHB airport. If you are a light sleeper and want to be deep in nature, this may not be the best spot for you. If you are looking for a relaxed, rustic vibe with what we consider to be the very best location to get to all things Acadia?! This IS your spot. Be sure to ask about earplugs or a white noise machine if you’re concerned about traffic noise.
Built in 1840, Isleview Motel & Cottages has some of the oldest most historic buildings in the town of Trenton. Trenton has a small-town atmosphere where residents and visitors can enjoy the Gulf of Maine with easy access to nearby services. Trenton, like many towns in coastal Maine, often hosts local events, festivals, and fairs celebrating the area’s maritime heritage and culture. These events can range from seafood festivals to craft fairs.
A rental car or private vehicle is highly recommended as public transportation is not readily available. We are located on route 3 and on the island explorer bus route, so you can leave your car here and ride the bus for free (late June - Mid October).
Outdoor Amenities:
During warmer months the scenic grounds are vibrant with flower boxes, gardens, lush lawns, Adirondack chairs, and picnic tables shaded by umbrellas and mature trees. Play a game of cornhole, or gather with your group to roast marshmallows around the fire pit; the stars here are so bright at night!
The town of Trenton is known for its gorgeous harbors and ocean views; it borders the western shore of Union River Bay. Guests have access to Trenton’s water-based activities such as kayaking, boating, and fishing with a nearby public boat launch. Tourists, visitors, and residents alike enjoy fishing for codfish, haddock, bluefish, bluefin tuna, striped bass, salmon, and of course, lobster.
One of the main attractions of Acadia National Park is its breathtaking coastal scenery, with rocky cliffs, sandy beaches, and picturesque islands.
