My partner and I are in Maine for the week and stopped in Camden for the first 2.5 days. Janis and Peter were wonderful hosts. Amazing food and a lovely space! They’re very hospitable. We will definitely seek their B&B out again if we make it back to the state.

Peter and Janice are incredible human beings. We stayed with them for a girls trip and I can’t compliment the establishment enough. The inn was everything we needed! AND THE BREAKFAST??! Every morning was a an absolute win for my tastebuds. They were kind. The establishment was clean. What more can you ask for?! 10 out of 10 recommend.

Janice and Peter are phenomenal hosts. Their inn is exceptionally welcoming, well-kept, and clean. The rooms are well-maintained. Their historic home is a gem. It is perfectly situated from downtown Camden, and we cannot recommend staying here enough. Booking the Carriage House room is well worth the value, and it is perfect for a romantic, quiet getaway.
