The Colonial Gables is a ten acre oceanfront property in Belfast, The Heart of Coastal Maine. The property offers Studio, One and Two Bedroom Cottages along with thirteen guest Rooms. All units have private seaside porches in order to enjoy the sights, sounds and breezes of the Maine seaside. The gradual slope of our large beach area allows for an easy entry into the refreshing sea for swimming or wading. Horseshoes, shuffleboard, ping pong, volleyball, kite flying, swing slide set, beach combing, nightly campfires, and a small video arcade are just some of the activities available. Boating, fishing, and seal watching in the beautiful waters of our area will add hours of pleasure and fun to your stay. If your planning on some area sightseeing a short drive will reward you with lighthouses, ferry rides or a scenic train ride. Camden and Bar Harbor are just a short drive from our property. While in our area, you may want to visit Acadia National Park, Schoodic Point or the Historic Fort Knox State Park. High Speed Wireless Available The Colonial Gables is beautifully situated on the ocean in mid coast Maine, two miles East of Belfast,The Heart of Coastal Maine.

Old School

Rooms are cabins. Mostly nice but had to kill a few spiders, and the floor sloped some. Loved being 100 yards from bayfront, where sunrise was spectacular.

Great View of the ocean!

The main reason for booking this place was the "oceanview" title. It did not disappoint. All of the motel rooms have private balconies that have excellent views.

beautiful view, sunrise and sunset

we have stayed at many small motels along the Maine coast and this was very comfortable. The manager most helpful on distance to our favorite lobster dining spot. Great to wake up and sit on the deck to watch the sky change colors with the sunrise.

Comfort and Laidback

The cottage was right on the bay, the views were great and it was nice to have coffee on our own deck looking out at the water. The staff was friendly and attended to our needs. There were resturants very close with excellent food. I would go back there and stay anytime.

great getaway

we really enjoyed staying in one of the cottages. It was very clean and the staff was very friendly and helpful. It is a very quiet location . The beach is not the best I have seen in New England.

Beautiful view

We booked throughy Orbitz and got a fair deal and quick check-in. The room is clean, small and quaint, but the semi-secluded porch and view of the ocean and mountains more than make up for the room. There are not eating facilities at the motel so be prepared to drive back to Belfast for a meal. One incident of note, a family coming in behind us had no reservation and tried to book a room using a coupon from a local travel paper. The motel attendant would not honor the coupon, saying they wanted to try to fill the rooms with other guests first. Apparently those not as coupon saavy. So the family of 5 was forced to move on. Needless to say the rooms and cottages did not fill up in the night.

Enjoyed it immensely!!!

Beautiful grounds, lovely view and so very friendly. The cottage was clean, well furnished and updated. The only issue was the hot water heater was obviously small, could only get in one shower before running out of hot water. We worked around that though and thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

Nice Family Hotel/Cottages

The Hotel was very nice. The woman who runs it was very sweet. The only thing misleading is I thought we were getting a cottage, not a hotel room. there was only 1 feature i didnt like, the bathroom was very tiny and the door didnt shut or lock.. other than that very clean and comfy.. I did happen to see one of the cottages and they are beautiful, if we go up again, thats where we'll be staying, Great for families
