Got a single vehicle pass (7 days of access for $30) here. The woman who helped me was very knowledgeable. She gave me a great rundown of the places to visit as well as all the documentation for the park. This is a great place to start your visit to Acadia.

Ginny and Donna are wonderful resources for everything happening in the area! The two of them are fun! They couldn't believe I'd never had "lobstah" and wanted to fix me right up! Stop here for maps and ask the gals for tips!

Great place to go if you have taken an impromptu trip to Mount Desert Island and are looking for a hotel. They can help find you a room. You can buy park passes here for Acadia National Park. They also have loads of information, brochures and maps. Great place for first time and experienced visitors. Due to Covid, only so many people can be in the building at a time and restrooms are closed. Masks must be worn at all times over the mouth and nose in order to receive service.

I have been wondering the same thing. I'll try to reach out to the park rangers and get you an answer.

Can we buy the acadia car pass at this information center? I don't have access to a printer to buy it online before arriving there.

Yes, you can. With your purchase, you will also receive quite a bit more informative paperwork about the park.
