Breakfast had a good variety. Beds were a little squeaky but comfortable and it needed some renovations- think 80’s style. Air conditioner cooled the room down a little but not enough especially at night

The walkway into our room was missing stones between the paver making a huge tripping hazard. The kayaks should be scheduled so others have time. One groups used them all day making it limited for others. Not enough fire pits. The pool was great! The view to the harbor is getting blocked by trees and they could use some trimming and weed removal behind the unit at the bottom of the hill closer to the harbor. Still would go there again!!! Would recommend, the breakfast is also great!

Outdated and in need of remodeling. Our first room was not what we expected. It was outdated with rust spots on the door frame of entrance and frame of drop ceiling in the bathroom. The bathroom faucet had some weird damage that looked like it was melted. The slider leading to the porch was held shut with a stick because the lock was broken. We decided we weren't staying. The woman at front desk gave us a tour of a different room. Since it was getting late, we decided to stay. This room was much better than the first until we tried to sleep. The light from the front door was shining through the door window all night making it difficult to sleep. And had no switch to shut it off. Sleepless, I decided to turn off air conditioner in the middle of the night. I turned on the light to see how to shut ac off when I noticed what looked like black mold in the vent of AC unit. I opened the front panel were I thought I would find a filter, instead I found no filter and the fins covered in grime. There were also crumbling grout in bathroom floor and black mold behind bathroom sink. I was told they had a fishing pond that was stocked. When I drove by, I could see it was small and over grown with no place to fish from. It looked like no one had used it in a long time. The laundry room was out side the building, not indoors. The mini golf section needed updating. The staff was friendly, but the place was lacking proper management and maintenance.

This hidden gem is exactly what we were looking for. While the room was bare-bones, the property was spectacular. The resort is quintessential Maine. Stunning views of the cove and surrounding property, are worth the visit alone. We wished we could have stayed longer. The breakfast buffet was delish, and the amenities (pool, shuffleboard, paddling and dock views were a nice bonus. We made reservations to come back. I great place for a reset.

Great place to stay. Staff was very nice. The room we had was Huge. Nice updated bathroom. The only thing, I would say is that they should really invest in some new doors. The front door had a couple of cracks and could see outside. The back door you had pull really hard to open. Other than that, I would stay again.

Fine, but not what I expected.

The property is far more rustic than the pictures suggest. Also, it is a bit run down. Our room had a fantastic view but was definitely in need of some repairs. It was fine for our needs but I expected more for the price I paid.
