Pets Welcome

Your Pets are welcome.

March 28, 2016 By barndog

Pets are welcome at this motel. We never had a dog that smoked in bed and set fire to the blankets. We never had a dog that stole our towels and played the TV too loud, or had a noisy fight with his traveling companion. We never had a dog that got drunk and broke up the furniture… So if your dog can vouch for you, you’re welcome, too.
Traveling with your pets is not a problem while staying at Hanscom’s Motel & Cottages. Cats and dogs are both welcome at Hanscom’s motel & Cottages. Not only are they welcome… we love them! There’s nothing more pleasant than to be greeted at the door by a friendly furry face during housekeeping rounds.
If your fuzzy friends are well enough behaved, we would be happy to take them out for a short walk while you’re away! Just let us know where you keep their leash, and we’ll take them out after we clean your room. We might even give them a treat!

We accept well-behaved pets at an additional charge of $15.00 per day. Please ask us about our pet policies and charges when making reservations.

A charming piece of Maine!

The cottages here are simply adorable! Clean well maintained grounds. The pool is a pleasant place to relax. The grills and patio tables make a nice touch. The kitchenettes are fully stocked so all you need to do is supply your food! A short walk up the road, about 1/2 mile, takes you to the beach. The ocean is way too cold to swim here, but scenery is fantastic! The prices are extremely reasonable and it's a short drive to Mainely BBQ and Bar harbor!

Piece of nostaligia with present day perks

Spent 3 nights with my husband. We are couple in mid 40's who enjoy the outdoors. Room was amazingly clean. Bed comfy and topped with a homey quilt. Kitchen had everything. Love that they recycle! Worried when we arrived that may be loud since had adjoining room but never heard the neighbors. WiFi was a little spotty but owners reset modem and seemed to help. Beach ie rocky shore was a enjoyable walk through quiet neighborhood. Beautiful view. Wish we could have brought our dogs but loved meeting the other lodger's dogs. Pool was clean but a little chilly for a dip. Loved the outdoor tables and grills. Highly recommend this place. A wonderful bit of Americana.

Always a great stay!

I've stayed at Hanscom's every season of the year and I can assure you that no matter the season, a stay at Hanscom's will be wonderful! The rooms are clean and comfortable and depending on which cottage you rent, they come with a stove top, microwave, refrigerator, and all utensils, too! And they even have WiFi! AMAZING! The rooms really feel like home and I couldn't ask for anything more. Every time I have talked with the owners (about re-arranging my arrival days!), they've been very pleasant. I love the fact that they accept pets. It was very hard to find a clean cabin that would allow this. I used to stay at the Bar Harbor Inn until I found Hanscom's. I honestly feel more comfortable at Hanscom's and the prices are perfect! I can't say enough good things about them!

A wonderful, idyllic place

My wife and I went to Mount Desert Island without a hotel reservation during a recent vacation. It was Thursday (not the weekend), but still we worried that we might not find any lodging. Hanscom's happened to have one opening, and are we ever glad we found them! Although they were just a short distance off that busy route 3 on the island, we never heard any traffic noise. The cottage was clean, modern, quiet, reasonably priced, and a wonderful retreat from the busy, crowded tourist locations. The staff there were all friendly and helpful, as well. We can't recommend them highly enough.

Great Relaxing Week

We just spent a week at Hanscom's and had a very enjoyable stay. Our room was clean and cozy, nice and warm when the weather turned cold and rainy. The kitchen was well stocked with everything we needed. It's a very quiet area this time of year but towns and shopping are very close. It was exactly what we needed. And a huge bonus was the fact that our cat was welcome to join us.

Short but Pleasant stay.

This is a great place to stay for couples or families. They have a pool, a nice area to sit outside with tables and comfy chairs, a barbecue and it's on the quieter side of the island which is also easily accessible to Acadia National Park. You can walk down to the water from there in a a residential are as well. The property is in Hulls Cove and the owners and their employees are great. We stayed in one of the end rooms which was nice and quiet. The beds are comfy, we had a full bath with a real bathtub and shower, a microwave a 4.6 cubic foot refrigerator and free wi-fi that worked great. Even with the diverse group including families it was still quite a peaceful environment. You can't beat the price and location. I only wish we could have stayed longer.

Great value, location, and dog-friendly.

My wife and I and our two Great Danes stayed here in early July. The location is very convenient to Bar Harbor and the National Park, and the owners are very dog friendly. This is a rare combination, especially for large dog owners. We will recommend Hanscom's to others.

Dog Friendly and Close to town comfort

Very clean and basic rooms with mini kitchen, Wifi, TV. We have now been coming here for years and staying in these great little cottages. They are Super Dog friendly and so it ALL of Bar Harbor. Mary is always willing to help and so is Katie at the "Front A-Frame" desk.

Very quiet and comfortable. We will continue to return every year ! !
