Early in the season with spring cleanup and maintenance going on, most workers were done for the day after our easy check in. Chris and other staff were great. Easy access to the beach.

Spinners is a marvelous place to stay at if you are looking for a nice weekend at the beach. It is located right next to a delicious restaurant and Fort Popham as well. The room was really nice and amenities top notch. Staff was also mega nice

Loved staying at Spinneys, got to partake in the cedar sauna and staff was accommodating to an early check in. Next morning we were able to wake up and watch seals play in the water right out front, along with a beautiful sunrise. Will be back!

We rented a room last minute and love the beach access. Watching the sunrise from the swing just steps from our room was fantastic! Chris at the front desk showed us to our room when we arrived, telling us about the property. We will definitely be back!

The location doesn’t get any better, right on the beach! Chris and his staff made us feel right at home. The rooms have all been updated with bathrooms, AC, and coffee outside in the hall. Great full service restaurant with an extensive food and bar menu. Morning walks on the beach and sunsets were spectacular. Lots of character in a special little corner of Maine!

The location was perfect. Loved the fact that we could cook there. It was large and roomy. Beds comfortable. However the kitchen area was filthy. Like it had not been cleaned. I would go back again though. It was the end of the season and probably not much help left.

Memorial weekend on the coast of Maine

This was a great place right on the ocean. Chris, owner and worker was very friendly. He was always available to answer questions and help out. The apartment we stayed in was comfortable and very clean The restaurant is right beside the accomodations and is very good. Will definitely recommend .

We had a wonderful time at Spinney’s. It’s a beautiful location and the staff is extremely helpful and responsive. Our room was a bit warm with the ceiling fan and open window but in all fairness, I did not address this with the staff to see if they had another fan. I would highly recommend a stay here. Location is gorgeous and walkable to the Fort and Popham Beach. Gifford’s ice-cream on site!

This was a great spot right on the beach. It’s a home built in the 1800’s. The restaraunt next door is delicious. There is a small refrigerator in the room but no blow dryer. The only downside is that It is very out of the way with no stores near by and no place to get breakfast. We came on a Saturday and on Sunday morning there was no coffee available in the hallway. Not sure if they just forgot to refill the coffee station or if you’re just on your own. Otherwise we just loved the spot.

Nice but underwhelming

We don’t need many comforts for an overnight stay but for almost $300 for a room with a shared bathroom and only Keurig type coffee facility ( and no cups available when we wanted coffee), it was underwhelming. Also, folks should know there is nowhere near to get coffee or breakfast. The location of the inn is top notch and we had a nice beach walk before departing.

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Spinneys was not at all what we expected. It was a very old building, really quite run down. The room was small and obliviously, the closet had been converted to a shower, so no place to hang up clothing and no one of extra proportions would fit in the shower. The room was not "dirty" per se, just not very clean and lots of stairs! I was recovering from a serious knee injury so the stairs were a deal breaker. We had paid for two nights and only stayed one. We asked for a refund, but were ignored even after having stated that the stairs were a real problem. Too bad it was so far into the boondocks, we wouldn't have even stayed one night after hiking up all the stairs and seeing the room. The bed was comfortable and we had a good night's sleep. The sheets appeared to be clean a freshly changed.

We stayed in the guest house and had to share a bathroom with four other rooms. Tv cable did not come in very well. We were on the top floor, no air conditioning. The room wasn't very clean.

Our stay at Spinney's Guest House was enjoyable. We stayed in the Admiral Suite. The room was your everyday Maine decor with some modern touches. Bed is very comfortable! Kitchen is beautiful, fully stocked with utensils and there is a huge closet off the bedroom. Privacy in the room, minimal. Office is directly below the suite and only a staircase and door seperate the suite from the office. You hear all visitors check in and all incoming calls ringing in the office. Views are STUNNING during dawn and dusk! We stayed Memorial Day weekend and the traffic around the location from 11am to 4pm is VERY heavy. If you go out during these hours, you will lose your parking on the property where your room is. The closeness of the beach and Fort Popham is very convenient and beautiful..footsteps from our room. Seeing Harbor Seals in the water of the area was an added pleasure. Area is quiet at night. Staff did not ask us once, if we needed new linen's/towels, trash bags, nor did they leave any for our room during our stay of 4 nights. Overall, worth the visit and recommended.
