Property is situated directly on the Machias River. It is a beautiful setting with outdoor seating directly out the sliding doors of your room. Direct room access from your car is a plus.

From the minute I walked in, the staff was amazing! Very friendly. Informative. The property was beautiful the room immaculate. Parking right outside my door.I fell in love with the store they have. A great stay! This was my first trip to Maine, it will definitely not be the last. Looking forward to bringing the family next time around.

Great value with a beautiful view

We had a clean, spacious room with two large beds and a beautiful river view outside our sliding doors in back. The sheets were crisp and the bathroom was very clean, with plenty of hot water for our showers. The restaurant across the parking lot served an excellent dinner. The inn’s gift shop is a great bonus! We will certainly stay here again.
