This is the most perfect place i’ve ever been! It is the cutest cottage inn by the sea that made our first trip to Maine so special. We arrived a little after 8pm and staff was super friendly waiting for us. I also unfortunately got sick at the end of our trip, so the available tea bar was a lifesaver. I cannot wait to come back!
