Thank you.

We could not have picked a better Bed and Breakfast. The James Place Inn is everything you would hope to find in a B&B. Freeport is a great base that you can use to explore so much on Maine. Thank you for the amazing adventure. We are still talking about the homemade scones.

We really enjoyed our stay here! It was quiet, very comfortable, and the owners were fantastic with making sure we were happy throughout our stay. Breakfast was delicious. The inn was located on a quiet side street right by all the shopping district, which we loved, as we could just walk over to it to shop and get dinner.

Nice B&B in downtown Freeport

Inn keepers were very helpful in figuring out where to eat. They were warm and welcoming. Their breakfast was delicious. Their location is very convenient walk to everything, so we didn't have to deal with parking.

Thanks for a fantastic weekend!

Pros: The hosts are fantastic
Location: Freeport is a great town with lots of shops and restaurants. Check out Sherman's books and the Fiore oil and vinegar tasting room!
We booked a stay at the James Place Inn based on reviews that we read on a few travel sites. I can't even begin to express how well-deserved each and every one of those reviews actually is! Robin and Tori are incredible hosts, pleasant, friendly, easy to talk to, and made us feel right at home before we even got there! We drove up from NYC on a Friday afternoon and hit more traffic than we anticipated, so we called ahead to let the staff know we'd be late. Tori answered the phone and told us not to worry, she'd leave the front door open for us, gave us directions to our room, leaving the key inside for us. She then gave us a list of restaurants within walking distance of the inn where we could get a late dinner. The next day we woke up and came downstairs for breakfast and were greeted by our hosts, who simply could not have been more lovely. First of all, breakfast is DELICIOUS! We started with muffins, yogurt, granola, and fruit salad (I should mention that the muffins and granola are homemade, and Tori's dynamite granola is available for sale). There is also a quiche, frittata, pancake, waffle, and breakfast meat of the day. The innkeepers are happy to keep feeding you as long as you feel like sitting. They have tons of suggestions for daily activities. We were sent back to NYC with a bag of fresh muffins/coffee cake and some coffee to go. This is a quant and comfortable B&B with delightful company!! Thank you so much!

Hospitable to the max AND convenient

The James Place Inn, tastefully decorated and fresh, is located in the heart of the busy Freeport shopping area on a very quiet street. The enthusiastic, down-to-earth, friendly host greeted me when I arrived and carried my bags upstairs. He checked to make sure the TV and DVD were synced with the remote so that I wouldn't be stuck late at night trying to figure out the problem. The room had a mini kitchen with a small fridge, two burners, a sink, and a microwave. Breakfast was sumptuous and prepared to order. I would recommend this B & B to anyone.
