ABOUT

What began as a Facebook group has blossomed into a vibrant community where residents and visitors alike share and gather information about the charming coastal town of Bar Harbor, Maine. Our community thrives on the enthusiasm and engagement of its members, making it the go-to source for all things Bar Harbor.

Bar Harbor is renowned for its picturesque views, delightful restaurants, unique shops, and a rich tapestry of local events and festivals. Here’s what you can expect to find and share within our community:

Local Festivals & Events: Discover the latest happenings and join in the celebrations that make Bar Harbor special.

As strong supporters of local businesses, we dedicate Mondays to them! Local businesses can post ads and promotions every Monday, helping them connect with the community. Please remember, only one new post or bump per week is allowed, and businesses that don’t follow these guidelines will be removed.
