this bed-and-breakfast in Northern mean is wonderful. We had a great reception from the owners, Bill and Marianne. Room accommodations were well kept, clean and comfortable. The grounds are beautiful, but the breakfast was absolutely spectacular. Fresh scones were delicious. I highly recommend this B&B if you’re visiting the Portland area.

Location to the busy areas of Freeport is steps away from this quiet oasis. Very nice innkeepers and staff will be there to make your stay pleasant while allowing you the privacy of a hotel guest. We stayed one night on our way home from mid coastal Maine and enjoyed our stay.

Great B and B!

This B and B was outstanding for attention to detail, immaculate condition and cleanliness. Their breakfast was delicious with a start of fresh fruit and scones, and a great breakfast burrito that day. A short walk to LLBean, it’s near all the attractions in Freeport. The hosts were very friendly and accommodating. It was a real pleasure to stay there!

Disappointed

The proprietors were very courteous. Our main complaint was the bathroom size. Looked like a closet was converted to a bathroom--literally. Comparable to a travel trailer size. Your knees almost bumped the door while on the toilet. You could sit and wash your hands in the sink with the shower at the other elbow. Everything was clean and the room was quaint. Would not return, too that room anyway.
