“Short But Sweet”

We stayed in a nice king bedded motel room with a large deck overlooking the sea. The motel has beautiful flower gardens and there was a small fresh bouquet from their garden waiting for us in our room. The room was very clean and quite comfortable with a very good wifi signal, but you did have to pay a small amount for it. Can't remember how much. Overall, a very relaxing visit. We wish we could have stayed longer, but we will definitely stay here again. Can't beat the value.

“Adorable Cottages on the bay - Can't wait to go back!”

The Cottages at Colonial Gables are just too cute! Ours was recently renovated and it was spotless. Too cute for words - perfect little romantic weekend retreat on the Penobscot Bay region. The woman running the front office was so sweet and very nice. Pet friendly place with very reasonable rates and we cannot wait to go back and spend more time just chillin by the bay!!!

“Great Ocean View!!”

The Colonial Gables Oceanfront Village was great. We had a lovely small cottage with a wonderful view of the ocean. It was extra nice to be able to sit on the deck and watch the ocean with birds, seals and dolphins. The staff was very cordial and pleasant. Would definitely stay here again.

“Oceanfront bargain!”

We stayed in a cottage just steps from the beach. It wasn't as modern as some of the others but that view was spectacular. We'll definitely return.

“maine memories”

We chose this property as our last hurrah in Maine. And we are so pleased that we did.. you check in and drive down the hill to your cottage.. BREATHTAKING.. the ocean is at your finger tips... the view is spectacular the smell of the salty sea air is all around... we were in cottage 10.. cute wonderful with charm all around... we took our lawn chairs to the oceans edge and enjoyed a drink while the tide came in... After a quick walk to "Papa J's and the lobster to enjoy a wonderful lobster supper... we walked back to the village and enjoyed a campfire (in the camp fire area) had a few more drinks and continued to relax as the waves lapped up on the shore... relaxing, carefree and an absolutely wonderful experience.. we will defiantly make this a reoccurring stop on any further travels that bring us to Maine

“"Lovely View"”

My husband and I stayed here for one night. The unit we stayed in was a renovated cottage with a very nice bathroom (shower only) and a nice kitchenette. The room had a king size bed, which was quite comfortable. We sat on the deck and looked at the sailboats in the bay for hours. It was a very nice experience.

“Terrific Stay”

We stayed at this wonderful property by chance and were very satisfied. The beach drops off quite gradual so you could actually get into the water without breaking your neck on rocks. The sand was coarse unlike Florida beaches, but for Maine, it was a pleasant surprise to be able to actually have a "beach". There was a nightly campfire area where we got together with other folks and cooked marshmallows and smores. Someone brought a guitar and there was a sing a long too. Lots of nice folks stayed there while we were there. Some mentioned staying there for several generations. Our son met a little boy his age and they played on the swing/slide set for hours and had a really nice time. We will definitely go back!

“Maine's Hidden Treasure”

This location is a diamond along the Maine Coast for quality and location. We celebrated our 28th wedding anniversary at this location, and it was a wonderful experience. We will be back again next anniversary for sure, and most likely sometime in the near future again as well.

“A pleasant return”

the first time I stayed was in 2000. I found that things had not changed over the years. It was nice to see everything was as good as I remembered.

“Wonderful Cottage”

The hotel is right at the bay. All of the Motel rooms and Cottages are facing the bay with great view. There is no swimming pool in the hotel ground, but the private bay area at the hotel is safe for dipping water, the bay water is shallow and somewhat muddy. There is also a Ping Pong table on site, we had quite a good time playing it the whole afternoon. The hotel is about one hour driving away from Acadia National Park, the old lady (owner?) in the reception office is very nice and helpful.
