Susanne was SO amazing! She was so sweet to check in on my trip from Boston and the amenities were just what was needed! I have no reason to go back and visit Wiscasset- but I would go back to stay here!
Absolutely wonderful, though too brief, stay. Room was historic with modern fixtures and a comfortable bed, the commons rooms were beautifully, tastefully decorated, and the grounds provided for lovely walks, and visits with the resident goats and chickens. Tasty breakfast box and excellent coffee completed the stay. Only some rooms are dog friendly, but they love the dogs that stay.
Absolutely wonderful place nestled in the quiet backroads. Beautiful, old, 18th Century inn (on the National Register of Historic Places) yet still has all of the modern amenities and conveniences. Staff were kind and helpful. The place was charming and immaculate. We also enjoyed the property - a barn with very friendly goats and chickens, and a walking path that led to an idyllic view of a Maine river - gorgeous. Would highly recommend a stay here if you're in the vicinity. Know that we can’t wait to visit again
Un lieu incroyable au bout d’une route perdue . Très vieille maison aux standards américains avec un look moderne doux très bien réussi . Un accueil extrêmement chaleureux et une soirée dans un restau exquis conseillé au milieu de nulle part... très joli endroit un vrai coup de cœur
Elizabeth was the best, welcoming, showed me the inn and grounds including the old fashioned honor bar and made me feel so welcome. Monday night was wood fired pizza night so after a walk down to the salt marsh river I enjoyed a great pizza and relaxing before a wood stove.
I turned in early-no tv and slept over 8 hours with great sheets and down pillows so peaceful. When I woke breakfast was homemade yogurt steed fruit and fresh eggs from the farms chickens. After making a couple copies I needed Elizabeth walked me out helping with my bags. This was a business trip that felt like a weekend getaway. I will be back.
In the middle of nowhere, about 12 miles south of Wiscasset, lies this surprise of a country inn. Comfortable rooms, a delightful innkeeper and many thoughtful accents and touches beckon one to stay longer than we were able. Definitely recommended for those who want to stay away from the "cookie cutter" hotel chains.
The elegance of restoration makes it memorable. The Swiss chef is spot on for dinner and breakfast. In season, the surrounding land is gorgeous but requires precaution against biting insects. Long drive (6 miles) from main road
A little slice of Heaven tucked away on a most peaceful and natural setting as can be imagined! Walking the grounds or exploring the natural bounty of the island can"t be more cathartic than this. Extremely comfortable beds and very clean rooms leave little to be desired if you are looking for that non plugged in experience.The stars at nite are what's showing and there is no intermission!!Chef Mario and crew are top notch , I've worked at the Ritz, and they perform w/o a hitch!
Wish I had more time but I will savor what I can.
The Squire Tarbox Inn is a family owned and run establishment of the highest quality. Secluded on one of the point/islands on the coast of Maine, the operators have chosen to have no television on site to enhance the experience of quiet and restfulness. The inn is beautifully cared for, with every wall containing interesting art, and flowers on every side table. The staff is thoughtful and intelligent, and works hard to make your experience a lovely one. Highly recommended if you want a true get away.
