Located conveniently on U.S. Coastal Route 1 in Historic Searsport, Maine . . . just one block from Penobscot Bay and a short walk into town. Because we are situated in Waldo County, midway between Rockland and Bar Harbor, many destinations are within an hour's drive from the inn.
This former Sailmaker and Sea Captain's home is a grand example of architecture of the time. Enjoy a full breakfast served in our cozy dining room with a fire to warm you on those cool mid-coast Maine mornings. Homelike atmosphere abounds from the sunlit double parlors, with views of the Bay and surrounding gardens, to the relaxing TV and game room.
Searsport is home to the Penobscot Marine Museum with eight buildings on the National Historic Register. With many kayaking and cycling opportunities, boating and fishing possibilities, not to mention the nearby ski areas, hiking trails, snowmobile trails, and golf courses, this area abounds with recreational facilities as well as whale, puffin, and lighthouse tours. The autumn colors offer photographic potential that is second to none. Searsport is called the antique capital of Maine with very good reason. There are close to 50 antique shops within 5 miles. Many restaurants offer lobster fresh out of the sea, and there is also fine dining nearby. We are 4 hours from Boston; less than 4 hours by ferry to Nova Scotia. Come enjoy our maritime heritage!
