The breakfast was amazing. We enjoyed both the French toast with praline topping and the eggs Florentine accompanied by pound cake and fruit. The waitress was very friendly and eagerly accommodated our request to eat breakfast outside. The grounds of the inn are gorgeous. There is a perfectly manicured lawn which leads straight to the ocean. For me, this area holds particular significance as it is where I got engaged! The inn is reasonably close to Bar Harbor / Acadia as well as local wineries and hikes. I would definitely recommend Captain Nickels Inn to anyone looking for a classy getaway in Midcoast Maine.

Run by a fantastic couple, Kelly and John, you will feel at home immediately. Breakfast is included and varies. I've had waffles loaded with fresh berries and an omelet loaded with freshly chopped veggies and cheese. Very filling!!!! I had a problem the first time I stayed because my cellphone was with T-Mobile and they have no service up there. My wife had to communicate with me through Kelly's phone which she gave up to me for extended conversations. The second time we stayed we picked up a pizza and some wine and settled in to eat in a common area. Kelly and John were in their apartment on the third floor, smelled the pizza and appeared out of nowhere to bring us plates and silverware. All continued to go well, we checked out l went and were in in Camden Maine, about 40 minutes away when we received a call from Kelly. We forgot something in our room and she met with us halfway back to give us our checkbook and phone contacts. Way above and beyond what we expected.These innkeepers are AMAZING!!!

Randomly stopped in on a Saturday afternoon for lunch while on our drive up from Portland to Bar…read moreHarbor. We sat in the bar area at a table and had the place to ourselves. The place is super cozy and rustic - all dark wood, fire places, etc. We had no expectations going in and we were very happy with the food and the service. The chef came by and even sat down with us for a bit to give us some dining recommendations while we were in Maine - he also happened to be from or once lived in NJ like us. We each had an order of the gumbo and shared a side of onion rings. The gumbo was tasty and the perfect portion. The onion rings were also really good with the dipping sauce. We decided to share a piece of blueberry cheesecake before we hit the road and had zero regrets. It was a really pleasant meal and I would recommend this restaurant if you are in Searsport.

Homeport Tavern has fallen so far in the last six months it should honestly file a missing persons…read morereport for its former self. The menu shrank, the quality tanked, and the prices shot up like they're trying to qualify for a Michelin star through sheer confidence. The mussels appetizer was... geological. There was so much sand in them my husband stopped eating for fear of cracking a tooth. When your seafood doubles as dental shrapnel, something has gone very wrong. Then came the special of the day: fettuccine with mussels, shrimp, andouille sausage, peppers, artichokes, and capers -- which arrived in the exact same broth as the mussels appetizer, complete with the exact same bread crusts perched on top like a practical joke. It genuinely felt like they took the leftover broth from our appetizer, tossed in noodles and whatever ingredients were within arm's reach, and called it a "special." The only special thing about it was the audacity. My husband's house made Caesar with "blackened" chicken was another plot twist. The chicken wasn't blackened; it was just overcooked grilled chicken wearing the name "blackened" like a fake ID. The dressing tasted store‑bought -- the shelf‑stable kind you buy when you've given up -- which is not what anyone expects from something advertised as house made. Our friends' cheeseburger tasted like it came straight from a freezer box, and the bun had all the personality of a dinner roll from a school cafeteria. Honestly, the cafeteria comparison is unfair -- cafeterias at least know they're cafeterias. The singer was genuinely talented -- truly good -- but the volume was set to "jet engine," so we had to yell to hear each other at a table small enough that whispering should have worked. It was like attending a concert you didn't buy tickets for while trying to eat food you didn't want. Service was a whole separate adventure. Slow, forgetful, and consistently off. Our server forgot multiple items, including onion rings that never arrived, and one friend didn't get her food until the rest of us were done. No apologies, just repeated reminders that they were short staffed, followed by more short‑staffed service. We tipped 20% anyway, which the server seemed extremely grateful for -- probably because she knew exactly how the night had gone. Homeport used to be great. Now it's a place where you go to mourn what it used to be while eating food that tastes like it's mourning too.

The biggest selling point is the adirondack covered yard that has a lovely water view. All the rooms have a view. They also have outdoor fire pit nights, free hot chocolate and coffee, a hot tub, sauna, and pool. We loved staying here as an alternative to super busy Bar Harbor for our Acadia visit. The only reason this isn't a 5 star for me is because the musty smell in our room. Our room was not too far from the pool. We were able to open the window and our back door so this helped with the smell. The front desk was also beyond kind and helpful. The free parking lot out front is huge so we never had problems finding parking. This was a comfortable stay for the few days we were in town.

They sell wine and beer at the front desk and it was a perfect night of relaxing outside under the stars by the fire with a cold beverage. Our room was clean and spacious, the front desk employees were kind and helpful, and there was plenty of parking close to the entrance that led to the room. Though this hotel is on the other side of the bay and therefor a bit far out of downtown Belfast, it was still a great and relaxing place and I'm glad I made the choice to book it.
