Although the property was much larger than I thought it was, we found the Inn to be very nice. The furnishings were great and proximity to the beach was perfect.

Lovely guest house, room was clean and bright, staff were friendly and helpful. We borrowed the bikes (they’re free) and cycled around the town which was great fun. Would definitely recommend.

Super small rooms. Uncomfortable for two people. Also noisy. We woke up at 4am because of the noise of people walking in the room above us. Then heard their shower noise until a while after 5am. On our vacation, we slept 5 hours a night because of the noise.

I had a king oceanfront room on the third floor. The room was clean and set up nicely. I had a corner room so I had windows on two sides which made for a nice breeze flowing in. The ocean is directly across the street and it’s a short walk to the nearest beaches in either direction. Unlike a hotel, there isn’t anyone at the front desk after 8 pm but I didn’t need that. Coffee and teas are available. Only thing I wished for was a refrigerator in the room and there wasn’t one. Bed was very comfortable and I’d definitely stay again.

Coastal Maine

Beautiful place to stay along coastal Maine. Staff was friendly and very accommodating. However, the bed in room 201 is in dire need of replacing. Sagging really bad on the left side

The beach house was in an excellent location right across the street from the beach and not too far from downtown. The decor in the room was cute and the beds were comfortable, but the bathrooms do need to be upgraded. Staff were super nice and great coffee and tea station!
