Henry R Abel & Co Yacht Yard

Not a complaint, just a heads up if you are considering taking a mooring here and have a dog. It might be a long ride in the dinghy to shore. The restaurant on the property is good.

Excellent staff who are full of local information. The accessibility of the pump out boat was a huge help with having extra people on board. The dinghy dock had plenty of room. Beautiful, peaceful mornings with bald eagles, osprey, loons, and seals in the harbor. Do not skip the lobster pound in the same parking lot!

Very welcoming staff if you need anything. Right off the dinghy dock, eat an exceptional meal at Abel‘s lobster pound. It’s a beautiful outdoor setting with delicious food and surprisingly excellent cocktails!

Beautiful location. Quiet anchorage. Allison was great with communication. So nice to have a wonderful restaurant right up off the dock.

Nice mooring anchorage with a great restaurant. Will be back.

Great spot , great resturant

Beautiful spot. Great restaurant.

Easy to access mooring, dafe harbor! So nice, we ate staying a second night!

Get Staff, service, reliable

Absolutely no facilities, Only one restaurant that was cool and nice place to be. Got double charged & over charged for dock fees. Dockmaster was not friendly at all and was acting like we were an inconvenience to him. He told us that unfortunately the government would not let them charge more than 5$ for a pump out because they were subsidized (implying he wanted cash on top) Big thumbs down for that place & wont be returning ever.

Such a beautiful spot! Thank you

Small boat yard. Well priced for simply just being on a ball and having land access. Staff was really nice and helpful. Restaurant on site was wonderful. Island Explorer Shuttle will stop at the entrance if you wave them down on their way by. Free to get you almost anywhere on the island. We'll be back!

Basis large mooring. Good location to access park. No extras. Good restaurant. Price is right.

Staff was great, dinghy dock was great, access to bus was great, mooring was great. But… we left our boat here for two weeks and when we returned it was covered in Cormorant guano.

Very helpful crew. Beautiful scenery, great sunsets, superb restaurant. Quiet harbor, no swells or early a.m. fishing fleet. On the bus line to NEH, Bar Harbor, Jordan Pond.

The staff were wonderful, polite and helpful. Mooring was easy to pick up and dinghy dock was very convenient. The restaurant right there had one of the best lobsters we’ve had in MDI. Great place, we’ll go back for sure.

Excellent overnight. Couldn't have been better. We swam in the warm water, had a nice meal at the lobster restaurant and went for a walk across the street. We will go back next year.

Exceptionally well-maintained moorings, Pleasant and helpful staff, will return in the future!

Great mooring and thanks to Nick for his help.

Comfortable mooring, great restaurant

Awesome staff! Thank

Great views both from mooring and outdoor dining

Wonderful mooring. Outstanding dockside restaurant.

Super friendly and accommodating. Restaurant is a treat. Right on Acadia bus route.

Excellent place to get a mooring. The food at the restaurant was the best.

Great scenery, easy to find moorings. The best lobster! Bar none.

Mooring ball pendant was really short, had to rig a line to loop through it. Went into dock, crowded dinghy dock, no restrooms (except at restaurant), no ice, no grocery- they need to update DockWa listing

Not sure if the problems were with Abel’s or Dockwa, but our reservation confirmed by Dockwa was apparently never received by Abel’s. Also not sure if they were paid via Dockwa. We picked up a mooring we liked, which was fine after the fact. No dock staff on site and no way to leave a phone message. We were completely out of water, but didn’t see an opening to go in to fill up due to a lot of wind and/or crowded dock space. We did have a great meal at the restaurant. Also, there was always plenty of space at the dinghy dock.
