The breakfast was phenomenal, timed to our schedule and delicious, a German-American specialty with lots of fruits. The whole house is full of beautiful antiques and is very tastefully decorated. Our hosts could not have been nicer or more-accommodating. If you're not driving, it's an inexpensive cab ride from the train and Bowdoin is even walkable in about half an hour. It's a very quiet, pleasant neighborhood.

The breakfast was delicious. The view was lovely. We really enjoyed the house and the antiques. The hosts were very accommodating.

This B&B is very cozy, conveniently located, and immaculate. The hosts were very attentive and informative. The location on the river is simply beautiful!

Tom and Judy were very hospitable. Judy's breakfast was always so delicious. And the location was perfect for visiting family in Topsham

Very well kept facility and grounds. Very pleasant stay.

Beautiful historic home, comfortable accommodations, beautiful garden and view of the water. But the best of all was the outstanding breakfast- it exceeded our expectations!

We were mat on arrival by Tom, a very engaging host. He actually asked two other guests to switch rooms so that we could have more room, as there were three of us (two adults, one 12 yr. old). Aside from the room there are two sitting areas for guests to relax in. The grounds are very pretty and lead right down to the river. There were little help yourself snacks and the breakfast was one of the best I have had at any B&B.

Terrific B@B in all aspects - small, cozy and scenic. The location is ideal for shear enjoyment of the Brunswick/Topsham area and for branching out to explore and experience the Maine seacoast communities for which Tom will be happy to provide maps and insights. The breakfasts Judy prepares are a cut above - Dutch babies, wow! Treat yourself and for a price that makes a lot more sense than staying on the coast.

The room was lovely as were the grounds. Everything was scrupulously clean. The breakfast - Dutch baby pancake! - exceeded my expectation. The antiques and the quilts in the rooms and hallways were a lovely touch. The owner was able to give us some tips as to where to go for supper.

Breakfast was spectacular every morning. Linens and towels changed out daily and the house was always kept neat.
