I got some great advice from Amy Roeder, a local, about how I should spend my day in Bar Harbor and <a href=\"http:\/\/www.barharborinfo.com\/\">Acadia National Park<\/a>. I thought I would share it with you. She writes:<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">I highly recommend the Shore Path (starts in town, level walking, approx 1 mile in length, out and back walk or you can come back via town) or Compass Harbor. \u00a0Compass Harbor is just a short ways out of town and it offers varying terrain (though none very steep) with harbor views and the chance to see the remnants of the Dorr Mansion. \u00a0It&#8217;s one of the most picturesque walks on Mount Desert Island. \u00a0If you head out of town on Main St., the entrance to this trail will be on your left after a half mile or so. \u00a0The Chamber of Commerce (corner of Main and Cottage) should be able to give you a map to the trailhead. \u00a0You can totally do both in a day, btw. \u00a0As for lobster, my favorite is at Thurston&#8217;s in Bernard, but that&#8217;s kind of far away. \u00a0If you&#8217;re looking for a good in-town lobster, I recommend Side Street Cafe. \u00a0Their lobster roll is the best in Bar Harbor. \u00a0I also really like the lobster roll at the Thirsty Whale, but Side St. has the best full lobster dinner in town.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">Can&#8217;t wait to try it out.
