This is a historic bed and breakfast in a lovely residential area only a block from the business district in Freeport. The host, Connie, was very pleasant and accommodating. The breakfast was absolutely delicious! I was here 2 nights in different rooms, one upstairs, one downstairs. Both were very comfortable, clean, and quiet. I would also say the value far exceeded what you could get at any hotel. I was very pleased to stay here.

Do not pass on this gem. I had a great, relaxing, enjoyable visit. Connie is a luv. She is so personable and will make sure you are happy. The room was beautiful and I don’t think I have ever slept in a more comfortable bed. Breakfast was hot and delicious. I will absolutely be back. Thank you, Connie.

We really enjoyed our stay. Breakfast was very good and we enjoyed our conversations with other guests. Our host was present and made herself available if any issues came up. An easy walk to LL Bean and other shopping as well as dinner

Went above and beyond my expectations. Clean, beautiful, and comfortable - and with such a kind and generous host. Trains and buses to Boston are less than a 10-min walk away. Would stay here again, 10/10!

It's a home feeling being away from home. People are so friendly that we feel great about staying there. From the very first step in to the property to the last step out of the property we feel like those people are known to us for a long time. Foods are excellent. Hats off to the house Mother for making us feel that way. We strongly recommend that place to every one to consider. I'll be looking forward to visit it in near future.
