This beautiful historic inn exceeded our expectations in location, comfort, amenities and spacious room. The entire inn is thoughtfully decorated to match the historic home and we just loved the massive staircase and carpets throughout. We enjoyed 3 nights in a King suite with partial bay view. Even though there was a Keurig in our room we indulged in the Nespresso and other hot beverages in main area downstairs. A memorable stay!
The staff are very friendly and helpful.
The location is on a Main Street but after 6pm the town is very quiet.
Being this is an older inn if you are a senior would recommend packing an overnight bag as you have to take the stairs to get to your room.
There is free parking on site.
Within walking distance to shops and restaurants
A beautiful stay in a stunning inn. Parking on site, an immaculate and well appointed room, friendly staff and a wonderful location made for an excellent experience.
Beautiful room, comfortable bed. Close to everything on the Main Street . We were greated by a very pleasant lady that takes care of the place although she is not the owner. The outside of the entire home does need repairs though but it was very beautiful non the less
Great place and location in Mahone Bay. Located on the strip this us a beautifully decorated restored 19th century home. The owners/hosts were great and the room was great. Our room on the ground floor had sink, fridge, BBQ, sitting area outside and a comfortable bed. We will stay here again.
This was such a nice, quiet base for us as we made several day trips. The parking was convenient and easy. The room was comfortable and spacious. We got great restaurant recommendations too and had a very nice stay.
Very clean and nicer than we expected! The reading area is lovely, and the room was quite spacious and well equipped. The views right outside the property are wonderful, and the town is charming and has good places for breakfast and dinner that are all walkable from the property
10/10 would stay here again. The house is lovely, with thoughtful touches all over the place. They really have anticipated what their guests need/want. Walkable, quiet, comfortable. Highly recommend for an enjoyable visit to this charming town.
This is a lovely lovely Inn and a fabulouse place to stay. The rooms are newly renovated, clean and beautifully appointed. The location is perfect ... within walking distance of pretty much everything in Mahone Bay. Yet still very quiet. I Highly recommend this place.
We had a beautiful stay at the Magnolia Inn. Our room was super cozy and had everything we needed. Great location!
Our stay was delayed due to some car troubles, the Inn owners Laurie and Craig were extremely helpful and understanding.
We enjoyed our stay in this beautiful period home and the hosts were lovely and hospitable. Great location for exploring the area and peaceful and quiet. Lovely breakfasts both mornings.
Amazing …the Magnolia Inn in Mahone Bay was very clean and well equipt with everything you need for your stay … the kitchenette was an added bonus …and our room came with a great outdoor seating area… I highly recommend and will def be staying again
