Maine offers an exceptional range of lodging from grand ocean resorts and historic inns to rustic sporting camps and wilderness campgrounds. Whether you’re looking for luxury accommodations in Portland or Bar Harbor, a classic Maine B&B on the midcoast, or a remote cabin on a north woods lake, Maine has the perfect place to stay.
Inns & Bed and Breakfasts
Maine’s bed and breakfast and inn scene is exceptional. Historic sea captains’ homes, Federal mansions, and Victorian cottages have been lovingly converted into some of New England’s finest small lodging properties. The midcoast towns of Camden, Rockland, and Belfast are particularly rich in high-quality B&Bs, as are the southern coast towns of Kennebunkport and Ogunquit.
Resorts
Maine’s resorts range from grand oceanfront properties to intimate mountain retreats. The Bar Harbor Inn, Spruce Point Inn in Boothbay Harbor, and the Samoset Resort in Rockport all offer full resort amenities with spectacular Maine settings. Sunday River and Sugarloaf ski resorts provide year-round lodging in the western mountains.
Sporting Camps
Maine’s traditional sporting camps are a uniquely Maine institution — remote lakeside properties offering cabin accommodations, home-cooked meals, and guided hunting and fishing. Many of the camps in the north woods have been operating for over a century and provide an authentic Maine wilderness experience that has largely disappeared elsewhere.
