Michael, Thank you for staying with us. We are a staple of South Port Island, being here since the early 60s with many upgrades and updates since then. The excitement for up upcoming renovations after this season comes to a close is mounting. Our 33 acres of beautiful coastal property will have more to offer to get people outside and enjoying themselves while building a community vibe. We hope you enjoyed your stay. Safe Travels Always

Claude, Thank you so much for staying with us and your feedback. Very sorry for that experience. We have some wonderful students from Turkey here with us this season. Sometimes we hit some language barriers that we work through with a smile! We hope you will consider us for your next Maine adventure. Safe Travels Always

We enjoyed our stay here. The amenities are fantastic including canoes and kayaks and mini golf. The property is very old and the rooms could definitely use some updating but they were clean. The breakfast provided every morning was wonderful

It was like staying at a summer camp they cheaply converted into a motel. Definitely needed a facelift. However, the staff was amazing, good breakfast included, had kayaks/canoes/SUPs, pool, mini golf, fire pits. Would definitely stay again if I was on a budget with kids.
