The Inn is absolutely beautiful and the staff is so kind and helpful. The dinner at Sea Glass was delicious and the best way to kick off our weekend in Maine. It was hard to leave our room because the ocean view was so picturesque. I hope to come back again!

This property was amazing. You walk into the lobby and can see the grass and ocean all at once. They have options to eat at the resort, have a bar and a pool. If you’d like, you have options to play games outside, make smores or walk down to the beach. It’s a beautiful walk. The loft we stayed in was beautiful, with gorgeous views. The bathroom has heated floors and there were two tvs, upstairs and downstairs. They even offer clue, scrabble and monopoly. Parking was easy, breakfast was available and the staff was nice. The rooms were very clean. Loved it here.

This place is very special, both in its gorgeous setting and in the lovely, comfortable suites. But what stands out especially is how everyone on the staff is so well trained, helpful and gracious. also, the food at the Sea Glass restaurant was wounded and the service perfect.
