This was the cutest mom and pop motel. It was clean and safe and had a cute little balcony. Yes, it is outdated but they have made it work for sure. It felt like a motel on old Route 66. Updating would ruin its charm so instead the embraced it.

This was a perfect stop for us and our dogs on the way to Nova Scotia for the summer. The owners are a delight. The price is very reasonable, the set-up for making a simple meal is fine. It's very basic but if that's what you and your dogs ($10 per dog) need, it can't be beat. And makes a great stopover on the way to New Brunswick, Nova Scotia, and the other islands up that way.

As always our stay was perfect. We use the Milford Motel on the River because its super convenient for us. Its close to our inlaws and close to town. When we had to cancel our last trip the Motel called me to make sure everything was okay, and that nothing major happened.

Love this property

This was an amazing time here, I stayed two days with my dog! The owner was really friendly and kind. This motel is a little Gem in Milford only 1 hour and 20 mins from Bar Harbor. It’s cute, safe and comfortable! Every room was unique. They are like apartments and would definitely stay again!

Really liked the comfort of the bed. My wife has back pain due to spinal problems and she found the bed very comfortable. Check-in was initially a bit questionable as it was not certain if I had a reservation although one had been made a week earlier. It was eventually found - all good.
