Crocker House Country Inn ReviewBuilt in 1884, this handsome shingled inn is off the beaten track on picturesque Hancock Point, across Frenchman Bay from Mount Desert Island. It's a cozy retreat, good for rest, relaxation, and quiet walks. (It's only about a 4-min. walk from the water's edge.) Rooms are tastefully decorated in comfortable country decor; there's nothing lavish here, but they do have phones. The common areas are more relaxed than fussy. The inn has a few bikes for guests to explore the point, the second-smallest post office in the U.S., or the clay tennis courts (nearby). The restaurant here is a highlight: Dinner is served in a fun atmosphere. Open daily from May through October and weekends in several other months, the kitchen serves mostly traditional favorites, such as oysters Rockefeller, scallops, fish, pasta, steak au poivre, and lamb. Facilities: Note: This information was accurate when it was published, but can change without notice. Please be sure to confirm all rates and details directly with the companies in question before planning your trip. Related Features

Frommer's ranks every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment it reviews for quality, value, service, amenities, and special features using a star-rating scale, an expression of the strong compare-and-contrast opinions that are a brand hallmark.
Other ratings provide stars based primarily on price and amenities; the Frommer's star rating is meant to quantify the kind of intangible, experiential elements that help travelers make informed decisions.
The "baseline" recommendation is zero stars--every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment that Frommer's chooses to review is recommended; otherwise, we simply wouldn't include it.
