    beautiful inn
    delicious breakfasts
    friendly staff

    We stayed at primrose for three nights and loved it! The inn is beautifully decorated, and the location is perfect, just a short drive to acadia and a quick walk into town. The breakfasts were delicious, and we really enjoyed the afternoon tea time. I especially loved relaxing on the porch with tasty sweets!
