We had a fabulous stay at the Pathmaker. The staff was full of suggestions for food and drinks, and the breakfast was terrific! We had a great experience!
Perfect quiet getaway for a great price. Location is across the street from grocery store and there are some local bars open in the evening. Relaxing way to enjoy the area without the crowds especially if you enjoy being outside in the winter. (Cadillac mtn road is closed but you can still hike it.)
Hotel was super clean & centrally located. It’s away from the waterfront, so will be nice during the summer if you need more quiet. Also breakfast is served table service style, not buffet, so bring extra cash to tip.
The Pathmaker Hotel was absolutely stunning. It is a brand new hotel that is oozing with character and comfort. The staff is very friendly and accommodating. The rooms have modern decor with charm and a sense of serenity all bundled in one. The bed is what dreams are made of. My husband and I agreed that was one of the best sleeps we have ever had. The coffee and breakfast was delicious. The breakfast was to die for! It is chef prepared each morning with the finest ingredients and the guests best interest in mind. I promise it will leave you wishing every hotel was this mindful of a great breakfast to start the day. Needless to say, this hotel deserves more than a 5 star rating. Everything was perfect and I will definitely be coming back to stay here again.
Loved the room!! Got a toothbrush after asking, which I forgot to bring. The breakfast is also good (Especially the coffee) 😊
Also! Beautiful sunrise and coastal location nearby
The hotel was clean. Our room was spacious and the bed was comfy. I wish there was a coffee maker in the room. Breakfast was good. It was quiet because it was the off season.
We never got to actually stay here because the hotel wasn’t open for our reservation dates. They moved our reservation to a sister hotel which I plan to give a wonderful review to; however, the management of the Pathmaker hotel has a lot of work to do when they do finally get their elevator inspected and are able to open. They didn’t inform me of the change in reservation. I only found out because I came across another persons review ~3 weeks before our stay, and when I called the Pathmaker to inquire they were pretty unconcerned/unapologetic and said that we would be housed at a sister hotel.
BUYER BEWARE! Bait-and-switch may occur. We booked 4 nights and were excited to stay at a “new” property. The day before we flew out they called and said they weren’t able to have guests and they booked us at a “sister property”. The sister property was 30 years old and probably hadn’t been updated in 30 years. Smelled bad. Everything was outdated. Spiderwebs and spiders covered the patio.
I called the manager who bait-and-switched us at least 6 times over 4 days to try and get some help or some answers. She never answered the phone. We were S.O.L.!!!
The whole trip became full of stress and disappointment. Their solution for switching our reservation was a small discount.
Then, when I got Hotels.com to attempt a refund, the owners of The Pathmaker were “unavailable” so there was nothing Hotels.com could do.
Terrible experience!

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
You need a coatclose and coat rack in the room with hangers in the closet
You need to tell people ( before they book they have to climb stairs) we were ok but many would be extremely upset
We had an extremely nice hostess at your front desk who gave me an umbrella
When it was cold rain and I really appreciated it
So maybe buy a few umbrellas for clients
The Pathmaker Hotel was not finished in construction, so our stay was at the Inn on Mount Desert, a sister hotel.
The front desk servuce was great, the room was pleasant, spacious and comfortable. The breakfasts were made to order choices and were delicious and beautifully prepared !
