Fort Knox Park Inn - Beautiful waterfront location in Bucksport, Maine - the ideal central location to explore the coast of Maine!. We're located on the water in Bucksport, Maine, just 31 miles from Bar Harbor and Acadia National Park, only 18 miles from downtown Ellsworth and the quaint, coastal towns of Belfast and Castine.
Being the closest coastal inn to Bangor, you can enjoy the coast of Maine during the day and Bangor's Hollywood Casino Bangor in the evening (only 20 minutes away & now a full service casino with table games from blackjack to craps!). Need a hotel room for a Bangor Waterfront Concert? We've got you covered!

Services
The Bucksport Waterfront Walkway passes just in front of the Fort Knox Park Inn - a wonderful amenity for our guests to enjoy a relaxing stroll during their stay. The mile-long paved walkway has gorgeous views of the waterfront area, a water fountain to add to the ambiance and gazebo for you to sit in the shade and soak up the scenery.
Affordable ticket and concessions prices - and Dolby Sound - make the Alamo a great place to beat the heat or just come for fun. And, we drizzle real butter on our popcorn! You won't want to miss Northeast Historic Film - a nationally recognized film archive of historic New England footage housed at the Alamo Theatre.
Take Route 3 west out of Bar Harbor, continue to Ellsworth. In Ellsworth, take a left on to Main St. (Route 1) and travel west out of Ellsworth for 20 miles. Fort Knox Inn is on the left. If you need directions from other areas, please contact us at the Fort Knox Inn - 207.469.3113 - for more information.
The Fort Knox Park Inn is a property whose physical building and website were both built before the current ADA requirements were put into effect, therefore, we have limited mobility access to both. Our staff and owners are on site daily to answer any questions or concerns that you may have regarding your individual needs.

Lovely, well-tended hotel, perfectly located in downtown Bucksport, and with a brilliant view of Fort Knox and the Verona Narrows Bridge (that sounds prosaic but it's a gorgeous bridge).
The walls and doors allow for a bit of noise but the excellent service and little details make up for it. The only real drawback is that the bathrooms are quite small. As a normal-sized adult male I found the walls close and the maneuver room limited but functional. A particularly large adult, or perhaps people with disabilities may find the bathrooms problematic.
Of note, the Fort Knox Inn is not pet friendly

Personally was on the pricier side for what was provided but I also went in July, which could be peak travel season. The inn is located right along the coast of the river, so it was a beautiful sight to wake up to every morning. Desk staff were always helpful. However, bathrooms were incredibly small and had poor ventilation, so just head's up for that.
