I get up there several times a year for work. As mentioned, it's a beautiful place but very expensive tourist trap until mid September. I've found the Wonderview Inn http://www.wonderviewinn.com/
To be the most reasonably priced with an incredible view of Frenchman's Bay. Cadillac Mountain auto road is a must do.

not a good place to go ,IF YOUR LOOKING FOR WOMEN
. I went there back in 78 with 2 other friends, after 2 days no single women we left for a road trip to my parents trailer in RI. we stopped at a hotel with a band got drunk met a girl in the mens room
. she was older than us, she brought us to some beach on a lake or pond. told us to set up camp and she would send her hot younger sisters, in the morning to make us breakfast . but the two guys I was with said it was a set up. so we left at 3 am and headed for RI got pulled over twice by maine states and one RI cop.once there at the campgrounds there were no single girls left. 
the guys who told us to do this worked for my dad 
, besides telling us bar harbor was a good pick up joint also told us to hang at the airport bars to pick up women. we were 19 at the time, oh there was a trip to ski country they sent us on, we almost froze to death in a car, we couldn't find the ski house only had beer money and ski money. Artie

If you go to the lakes, watch out for the environmental police, I was stopped by them on Webb lake and given a ticket for not having a milfoil sticker, no warning, just a ticket for almost 300$ there should be a posting at every boat ramp about milfoil stickers . They may have gotten me this time but in the long run Maine is the loser, because I will no longer spend any money there.
