HULLS COVE, Maine — Acadia National Park has reopened its visitor centre for the season in a Bar Harbor village.
The Bangor Daily News reports the facility in Hulls Cove has opened after months of renovations. Upgrades include new carpet, a family restroom and a separate entrance to the park store. Other additions include several oversized maps, new exhibits and a public display of pieces from the Acadia Artist-in-Residence program.
Still, the centre has limited handicapped accessible parking.
Park officials say they have removed a small theatre that screened an orientation film on the park.
Park entrance fees and contributions from the park store helped fund the renovations.
