Needs some updating. Get breakfast in town
Nice hotel with beautiful view, however, really could use an updating of room. Also, the cost of continental breakfast was highway robbery. $12 is ridiculous when you can go in town and get a full breakfast for $9.

Ok
I loved that had a larger coffee pot than post hotels however you need an extension cord because the cord is to short. Otherwise you have to set it in the floor and that is just asking for a burn. The drive down to the beach needs some works.

The property is beautiful and the owners were very nice. Our room had been updated and was very cozy, the view of the ocean was spectacular! It is an older property but you can tell they are keeping it clean and updating as they can. Would definitely stay here again!

Mark and Angela were great hosts. They were knowledgeable and helpful with info about the area. The inn is close enough to the town center but far enough away to make it welcomed retreat from the crowds. We stayed in the main building. Even though that meant sharing the space with other guests it was always quiet in the evening. Our room was cozy and the windows allowed for plenty of fresh air sunlight. We especially enjoyed the beauty and solitude of their private beach. We hope to return in the coming year.

We stayed in the main lodge, room 5. Overall, the inn is charming and peaceful. The ability to walk down to the ocean is a definite plus. Some aspects of the inn were a bit shabby and outdated, but on the other hand the room rate is a better value than other similar hotels. In our room, the gap between the bottom of the door and the floor was quite large, making the room feel less private, with light pollution from the hall lighting. I thought the mattress was only okay, the bed frame was a bit flimsy, and the sheets felt a bit old and "pilly". There was a large stain on the carpet, but everything seemed clean enough. Overall the room was decently cozy, it was quiet and we slept well. Continental breakfast was good, enjoyed the popovers and muffins, and the hard boiled eggs. Wifi was good, which came in handy as it was raining and we were able to stream a movie in HD on a laptop in our room with no issues. Staff was friendly although seemed a bit overwhelmed when everyone checked in - admittedly we all seemingly checked in at once. My companion noted that check in could have been more private - a lot of personal info was being verbalized for all to hear. But ultimately it didn't take that long and was relatively painless to get checked in. Anyway, we enjoyed our stay overall so I hope the pros and cons listed above is useful input.

Beautiful historic inn! The staff is AMAZING! We felt so welcomed. Definitely opt for the breakfast - the popovers and blueberry muffins were to die for. Very rustic setting. The only con is that the rooms are a bit dated, so if you’re looking for a more modern experience, this won’t be your vibe. If you want a quirky, eclectic, cozy coastal Maine experience at a great price, you’ve found the right hotel!

A charming Maine inn on the coast. Hosts were very congenial. Continental breakfast was wonderful! Loved the freshly baked muffins and popovers. A real treat. Wished we could have stayed for a week.

I have passed this motel all my life heading up to Northport each summer. So it was kind of a thrill to stay there a few nights. I love the motel layout, property/view and water access. And Mark was an excellent and welcoming host. I also love that the accommodations are just the basics. My only suggestion is updating these basics: shower, sink, carpet, furniture ... the existing ones have done their job and more! Thank you so much!

This was my favorite hotel of our entire two-week tour of the New England coast. By the time I left NYC, I just wanted to go back to my porch at High Tide Inn and watch the boats sail in the bay. It’s a bit on the rustic side. Not luxurious, but it had everything we needed. There was a minor issue with the electrical outlets that we reported at checkout. We forgot to mention that the bathroom window wouldn’t close, because we enjoyed the fresh air and the sound of waves crashing on the shore.
