It was a very clean and comfortable B&B. Updating an old historic home to accommodate many guests can be complicated, but this was done with taste. The home cooked breakfast was excellent. It's located within easy walking distance of Freeport, Maine

Connie is a lovely hostess, full of warmth and hospitality. The inn is immaculately clean and comfortably furnished. We stayed in the Bayberry Room which had every amenity we could have wanted. Breakfasts were delicious and the coffee superb. We would love to stay there again the next time we visit Freeport.
