Coastal Maine
We spent a week vacationing along the coast of Maine. We stayed in B+Bs along the way. This property was in a good location in the heart of town. The property was old and had minimal staff and services - all to be expected with a mid-priced B+B. It was a good value for the money and we enjoyed our stay. PS - Maine’s coast is amazing and we had a great vacation in Kennebunkport, Camden and Bar Harbor!

Lovely property, great location with walking access to all of Bar Harbor. Parking in Bar Harbor is very hard, so having a local lodge was terrific.

Central House was lovely. The chocolate chip cookies and delicious apples were a treat. The proprietor was very kind and helpful. I expected it to be a Bed and Breakfast, however, and was surprised and disappointed that there was no breakfast!
