Higgins Beach Inn
Fits right in with the quite town of Scarborough. My girlfriend and I visited in early October when the weather was just amazing. It's located one block from the beach, has a friendly staff, and a dog on site. I love dogs, so I was showing all kinds of love to Cash. The room was fine, although you will occasionally hear running water from a neighboring room from time to time. We booked the shared bathroom option, which worked out just fine. Clean, no waiting. Kitchen/Dining and bar available. Also a comfy TV room and outside deck.

amazing!!!
very quite, not a touristy place..which is what my boyfriend and I were looking for. The staff was great, very helpful. The food was very good, you can eat out on the patio or in the dinning room. We had the room with the queen bed w/ bathroom, small, but we were hardly in the room, it was worth the little extra money for the bathroom attached. The beach is walking distance which is nice for a night stroll, or relaxing in the sun. My boyfriend and I plan on coming back in the near future and would recommend it to anyone!!!

Old-School Maine Beachy Charm
A friend and I spent two nights at the Higgins Beach Hotel over Memorial Day weekend. We loved being close to the beach and found it a quiet, restful place (though I imagine it might be busier as the season gets going). Breakfast was convenient and tasty, and the minestrone soup and meatball sandwich we had for dinner on the second night were delicious. We explored nearby Crescent Beach State Park (beautiful) and Portland Head Light (interesting) and went to the city a couple of times for the more gritty urban experience.

Try Local 188 in Portland for dinner-- creative cocktails, interesting food, lots of options. We liked the panfried gnocchi.

An unexpected, outrageously good time
The first hint of what was to come was the comment by the proprietor about coming down for the free cocktail hour. What was also unexpected was the other guests that seemed synchronistically in tune with each other creating a roaring good time and festive yet thought provoking conversation ensued throughout the nite.
