"Overlooking Penobscot Bay, this picturesque little town
is one of the most authentic New England fishing villages
you will ever encounter, complete with trim historic houses,
elm-shaded streets, a village green, and a working harbor.
Take a walk down Main Street, and you'll discover an
outstanding example of late Victorian architecture, with all
the trim,
in the form of the Pentagöet Inn".

Geographic Guide to Small Town Escapes",

The Pentagöet Inn, a midcoast
Maine inn, is a charming Queen Anne Victorian, nestled on a seaside bluff, graced with majestic elms. Our
bed and
breakfast in Maine offers guest lodging that overlooks the village and harbor of Castine. Built in 1894, the inn is Castine's oldest, original "summer hotel" still
 welcoming guests of Penobscot Bay.
This whimsical Maine bed and breakfast
has a prominent three-story turret, gables, and a delightful wraparound porch lined with lush window boxes and wicker rockers. Flowers are for sale by the honor box. The porch is a favorite of photographers and artists; it is also a great spot to read the morning paper or to join us for an intimate dinner
in our Maine restaurant.
Many of our guests make the Pentagöet Inn in Castine their base from which to explore Penobscot Bay, the Blue Hill Peninsula, Acadia National Park, and Bar Harbor, the Down East region of Maine. There are a dozen towns within easy reach of Castine, each one special with its own unique character, antiques shops, art galleries,
Maine lighthouses, flea markets, and country fairs. Castine is centrally located for day trips because it is centered in a triangle, the points of which are Camden to the South, Stonington and Deer Isle to the East, and Acadia in Bar Harbor to the North, each an hour away. Come stay at the Pentagöet and experience the timeless charm of Castine and see why it was selected as one of the most beautiful villages in New England.
“Exploring Castine”....."That evening we dine elegantly
at Pentagoet Inn where I enjoy delicious local crab cakes
followed by scallops on asparagus risotto."
Coastal Living Magazine – September 2006
“An Excellent Downeast Adventure”.....
We drove on to the village of Castine. On my next trip, this
will be my destination. I’ll stay at the Pentagoet Inn,
dining in their restaurant on the local, seasonal cuisine.
I’ll relax on the wrap-around porch between walks about town
to admire the many Federal era homes.
I’ll savor the calm of this unique seaside town that must be
what Bar Harbor was like before the hordes of tourists.
