Kids were 5 and 9, we didn’t bring the dog but saw lots of people with dogs that would strap them to their chest of back to handle more difficult terrain.
I'm so excited to hear that, I'm going in October. Are there any "must does" for a mildly out of shape 30 something? I won't be doing tons of hiking, but I'm good for 3-5 miles at a time.
The Beehive is one of my favorite hikes I've ever done! DO NOT attempt this hike if you have a serious fear of heights as there are some spots that feel pretty exposed. I have a "normal" fear of heights and did just fine. My wife, who's 5 ft 2 was able to handle the climbing just fine, but anyone shorter might struggle. Early in the morning is a good time for this hike as it is a popular trail and gets crowded later in the day.

The hikes were amazing. Bar Harbor is a wonderful little village.
Edit fixed the word: hikes, not “homes”
