The Dog-Friendly MDI Bundle

Description

The Dog-Friendly MDI Bundle

Everything you need to bring your dog to Bar Harbor & Acadia for less than the price of two lobster rolls.

Look, I’ll cut to it: if you’re coming to Acadia with a dog, you need both of these guides. Not because I’m trying to sell you two things, but because Bar Harbor and Acadia National Park operate on entirely different sets of rules, and knowing one without the other will get you turned around at a trailheads or standing outside a restaurant patio wondering if your dog can come in.

We spent six months on Mount Desert Island in 2025 with our three dogs — Loki and Freya (huskies) and Caly (supermutt). Brian was guiding sea kayaks out of Bar Harbor; I was walking these trails, testing these patios, and figuring out the leash rules the hard way so you don’t have to.  This bundle is the version I wish someone had handed me on day one.

Here’s what you’re getting for $27:

🥾 Dog-Friendly Acadia Guide ($17 value)

• Every trail with a paw score (rated for exposure, difficulty, and dog comfort)
• The six trails your dog is banned from, and why
• Every dog-friendly beach with seasonal restrictions decoded
• Little Long Pond’s off-leash secrets (this is the spot)
• Full dog-friendly Acadia day itinerary

🦞 Bar Harbor With Your Dog ($17 value)

• Every dog-friendly restaurant patio in town
• Which shops welcome dogs inside (look for the paw sticker)
• Dog-friendly boat tours, including the Margaret Todd
• The Bark Ranger program (get your dog sworn in)
• Where to stay, where to walk, where to grab a pup cup

Total value: $34. Yours for $27.

Not the aesthetic Pinterest version. The real one, from someone who’s been in the park with three dogs, more days than not, for six months straight.
