A rare gem. On the Southern Maine Community College Campus. Steps away from water. A well restored former military residence, likely for officers. A true Maine experience. The inn is staffed by students. With few exceptions, all are genuinely eager to service well, learn, and support a satisfying guest experience.

The reviews here are limited as there are only 8 rooms in this inn. We selected this based on the purpose and how it is managed by college undergrads. As we expected, the service was great as everyone is there because they want to! The grounds are well kept and we love the fact that this is nice and quiet. If there’s one thing to improve on, it would be the internet. But again, if you are going for a nice and quiet stay then the iffy wifi is ideal😉

Away from the busy areas but not far ton

Lovely venue that sits by the water. The continental breakfast is delicious and set on a glass porch overlooking the bay. Close to the beach for walking, a perfect location.

The staff and accommodations werre great! The location was top-notch for us.

The place was fabulous and we plan on going back! Awesome staff, clean rooms, good location and overall excellent! Breakfast was very delightful and so yummy! My experience was wonderful!

The light switch at the door turns the TV on and off, which isn’t very convenient. The shower knob that changes the water from the spout to the showerhead kept falling out. The drop ceilings are gross and have black mold on them. The view is lovely from the windows.

The location is perfect close to the beach. The staff at the desk was helpful but the hotel offers no services and the breakfast buffet was very basic. From 9-10 a la carte breakfast was supposedly a choice but at 9:40 I was told that it was over. The rooms are not made daily so to my surprise I walked back at night to an unmade bed and bathroom. I wanted to support the hospitality students but the school needs to go deeper in their training.

Staff were very kind and attentive. Building had been upgraded and well maintained. It felt a little odd being on campus and being away from the trendy areas but loved the view of the harbor and supporting the hospitality students.

The property was located on the Casco Bay/beach which was very convenient. It was easily accessible to all major highways. The students were excellent hosts.

We loved staying at the inn. The students who are working there were friendly and attentive - they obviously enjoy what they are doing as they study at the hospitality program. The setting on the bay and walking along the beach were idyllic. It’s a quick 15 min. drive to bustling downtown Portland. Waking up to the sunrise over the bay each day was inspiring. It’s a classic inn, not as modern (and sterile) as staying at one of the downtown hotels but the room was nice, the bed was very comfortable, the bathroom a little small but clean and a good shower. Thoroughly enjoyed it!

Excellent and highly recommend!

Bien situé pour du repos. Personnel très gentil. Chambre aurait besoin d’une mise à niveau.

This inn is located on beautiful Casco Bay with a nearby beach. It is run by South Maine Community College and the friendly students studying Hospitality Management will serve you a lovely continental breakfast and make your stay very enjoyable.

Excellent all around

Very big room, quiet and clean. Staff really nice.

Beautiful building and location. The room was clean and nicely appointed. Shower curtain liner needs to be replaced (moldy), otherwise it would have been a 5 star rating. I would definitely stay here again if in the area.

We came early in the season to see lighthouses. This was a great location. The property has a great history and character. Staff was very friendly and helpful. Would stay here again!

I was looking for a quant boutique hotel close to Portland and found this site. You know the pictures are sometimes really generic, in tbis instance they didn't do the property justice. It is quant, and also serves sits on the campus of a community college, with hospitality students as staff. But the best thing, the views of Casco Bay.
