However, this charming spot is perfect for a quiet, romantic get away and offers the charm of an artisan town of locals. There is one room with large, buffalo check flannel bedding and was so apres ski chic it made the basic bitch within just explode. A few friends and I had dinner here and the food/drinks did not disappoint. They took a risk in making the dining room/bar as modern as it is for such a rural Western Maine town, but I think as more people visit it will be appreciate by tourists and locals alike. Again, a great diversion from what we have come to expect from hotels and restaurants in this area. It has more of a boutique feel than an old inn feel. The owner is also incredibly generous: they are more than willing to donate overnight packages to local charity auctions.

The pavilion area was beautiful and we were able to set up our ceremony space looking out onto the woods next to the tent. Dana was very helpful in setting up for the event. My friends and family enjoyed being able to stay for the whole weekend and the affordable rooms allowed us to turn the wedding into a weekend reunion for our college friends. Dana recently upgraded the pool and it was wonderful to be able to hang out in the water before and after the wedding as it was a very hot weekend. We also appreciated the convenience of having a coffee shop on the premises.

My husband and I were looking for a fun way to "leaf peep," since the Common Ground Fair was…read morecancelled this year due to the coronavirus precautions. I saw an article about RailCycling, and we thought we'd give it a try. We were not disappointed! So what are RailCycles? Think of a tandem recumbent bike, that runs on train tracks. We started at a historic train station in Unity (unfortunately, we were there too early to partake of the ice cream shop that was housed in one of the buildings, but we did browse a soap shop). Check out the tiny museum, which doubles as a rudimentary gift shop. We then sat down on our Cycle. They are somewhat adjustable for height, but not completely. I'm short (5' tall), and the closest I could get to the pedals had me reaching, because of the placement of the brake cable. When I tried one of the others, the closer setting was too close (maybe sized for a child). My seat also seeped water (though it hadn't rained for days), and I ended up with a very wet butt. The seats also aren't very wide, so take that into account. Once we got started, it was a lot of fun - one major roadway across which Logan stopped traffic so we could cross, followed by a stretch of track that traversed the woods with their beautiful fall colors, then hugged past Unity Pond, through a swampy area (where we were treated to three lovely herons flying past), and across a railroad bridge before stopping to turn around and head back. All the while we pedaled steadily, getting exercise as well as a fun ride through the woods. When we did reach that halfway point, I was disappointed - it all goes by so quickly! The entire trip takes an hour or so. It's not a difficult pedal, though there are some slight grades (remember, these are train tracks, and trains don't do well going up and down hills). I think that if the group (there were five couples, including us) were having trouble keeping up, our guide would have slowed down to accommodate us. But if you're looking for a strenuous workout, you won't find it here. We enjoyed the ride, spent some time together laughing, talking and taking in the scenery - great activity for a beautiful autumn day in Maine. Longer would have been better for us, but Logan did say that a longer ride is planned for October!

I made him stand outside of the bathroom door as I showered. I was unable to stand up in the shower fully and I am only 5'6".

It is suggested that you wear wool instead of turning up the thermostat in your room. You can hear every little noise happening throughout the house at night. There was a box fan that was provided that we used to make white noise, but it was still difficult to sleep. We walked through the kitchen in the morning (where her animals are eating and hanging out) and found it to be pretty dirty. I was chastised for not filling out my breakfast form correctly. We left as soon as we could. Our entire stay was extremely uncomfortable and honestly I feel it's my duty to warn others, so I am writing this review at the risk of a rude response. It is very possible we were not the right "fit" for this kind of place, but I have stayed at other B&Bs without these kinds of issues. One positive is that they are dog-friendly, which was one of the main reasons we chose it.

And beautiful!…read more My fiance and I needed a place to stay Christmas weekend since my whole family was going to be in the area during the holiday (we're all from Maine). This Inn was recommended to me by a friend who'd held her wedding there this past September and raved about it. I'd highly recommend this inn to anyone who is looking for a stay of any length in the area!! Pros: -Lisa, the innkeeper, is very nice and professional and always willing to help. -Breakfasts were amazing and there were many choices. -Great view out of the eating area. -Location: close to little town with shopping, gas station, ski-shop outlet, Sugarloaf, Saddleback -Our room was very comfortable: the bed, the room itself, the bathroom, pillows/blankets, etc. -Rooms are newly renovated, it seemed. -Great hot water. -Quiet and peaceful sitting area for guests. -Friendly doggies. -Helen the hen greets you in the mornings. Cons: -Doggies, while friendly, can be a little rambunctious - for those who love dogs, like us, we didn't mind a bit, but for those who might not enjoy dogs, this might be frustrating. -We got back to the Inn on Christmas Eve night (between 10pm and 10:30pm, I'd say), the door for the Inn stayers was locked...I don't think there was a curfew so I'm not sure why it was locked. We went in through another front door that was luckily unlocked. I'm not sure what we would have done without being able to get in. -The bedrooms had a slight smell of animals. It wasn't so bad, but given my fiance's severe cat allergy, this did make his nose stuffy on night #1.
