Dangerous sidewalks on Mount Desert Street

If you are staying at one of the lovely bed and breakfasts on Mount Desert Street, be careful walking on the sidewalks which are full of huge crevices and holes. I had no problems walking and hiking in Acadia National Park, but returned home bruised from a fall on the Mount Desert Street sidewalk (It was at 10 AM on a dry day and I was wearing Nike walking shoes!!).

Oh dear. So sorry! Part of that sidewalk is due to be replaced this summer. The town didn%26#39;t particularly want to do it during tourist season. But then they thought about the school kids (our grade school is just about the hill from there) who they don%26#39;t want walking out on the road to avoid the sidewalk. It%26#39;s true that it%26#39;s in bad shape.

Glad to hear that repairs are planned as this was the only downside to an otherwise lovely stay.
