Beautiful waterfront view of the amazing Penobscot Suspension Bridge and of Fort Knox! Room was spotless even though the property is a bit older. The lady on duty was very helpful as we asked for several extras several different times.

Would stay here again

Very nice inn on the river with a view of the marina, Fort Knox and the bridge. It was quiet except some foot steps in the room above. The only thing I’d like to see if a new mattress - it was so soft I had to pull myself out of the hole when I got out of bed. It looks like they are upgrading as they can, I saw new A/C units, fresh paint, new carpets - all in all it was very nice - just the mattress

Great views of the bridge and Fort Knox

Lovely location overlooking the Penobscot narrows bridge and Fort Knox. We had a room right on the water with a very comfy bed but rather a lot of furniture in the room limiting space Lady on reception not particularly welcoming. Nowhere open to have dinner nearby so had to drive to Searsport. Managed to find a little place for coffee and muffin the the morning just over the road but no other options in Bucksport itself

We were on the bottom floor with carpet and the room smelled moldy and we had to have the windows open all night and you could still smell it. The beds were very comfortable and the room was nice and appeared clean otherwise. It’s an older hotel but I’m sure if they removed the carpet the smell would be gone. I would stay again but would try another floor.
