Cape Neddick · Maine

A quiet bend
of the river, waiting.

A small cluster of cottages and an old inn tucked where the tidal river slows and the ocean is just up the road. Wake with the water. Walk to the coast. Come back for the porch.

The Cottages & Inn

Small, separate, softly kept.

A cluster of cottages arranged along the river, plus a handful of rooms in the main inn. Each has its own door, its own quiet. Come for the weekend, stay for the week.

The River & the Ridge

Between the marsh and the ocean.

Cape Neddick sits where a small tidal river winds out to the Atlantic. The water rises and falls twice a day; the marsh grass shifts from green to gold and back. From our lawn you can watch the herons work the low tide — then walk five minutes and be at the coast.

The property has been quietly hosting travelers for decades — the kind of place people return to on the same week each summer, then bring their kids to a decade later.

Book Direct

Skip the middleman.
Keep the difference.

Booking through the big travel sites is easy — and it costs everyone. When you book directly with us, the fee that would've gone to a corporate platform stays right here at the river, in flowers on the porch and firewood by the door.

You get a better price. We get to keep a real business alive. Everyone wins except the middleman.

The Cape Neddick Light — one of the most photographed lighthouses in America.

~7 min drive

Ogunquit & Perkins Cove

Galleries, harbor lobster rolls, and the Marginal Way cliff walk just up the coast.

Outlets, oysters, and the working waterfront of Portsmouth — worth a day.

Come sit on the porch.

Send a note with your dates and we'll come back with what's open — cottages tend to book out early for July and August, but shoulder-season weeks along the river are our favorite anyway.
