Stayed here here for a night after a wedding. The house and room were wonderful. The people who were in the upstairs room. NOT SO MUCH. The room had a nice comfortable bed, a larger relaxing bath tub and a patio that opened up right to the pond. The room had a nice heater (old fashioned stove).If we were to... More

Some things had changed over 15 years, in part due to the death of the long-time innkeeper, but we thoroughly enjoyed our stay in October 2012. In fact, we asked and were able to extend our stay up to seven nights. Breakfasts were outstanding, and our concerns beforehand that the food might have become too "yuppified" or "froo-froo" were unfounded.... More

Made to feel we were interrupting hostess when checking in. Bed was OK but nothing special. Setting was nice with pond, ducks and loons in a.m. Breakfast room was crowded, almost had to wait to eat. Waffles overdone and somewhat hard; sausage links rather tasteless.

The picture on the website doesn't really look like the present grounds. We stayed in the pond house with connecting porch. Rooms were fair, nothing outstanding but it was in a country setting. Large jacuzzi tub, think a bigger bathroom would have been better. We understand the place is up for sale due to the death of the owner. A... More

The Collier House experience has greatly improved. You should disregard the negative reviews that they got in 2011. Apparently, they hired all new staff after the 2011 experience. Most important is, Chef Elizabeth Jutras, who provides unbelievably high quality meals. (During our three-night visit, we had the “Scrambler”, the “Haystack Eggs”, and delicious blueberry pancakes with sausage and real maple... More

This was a great bed and breakfast! My boyfriend and I were traveling through the area, and this charming b&b was wonderful. The room was clean and quiet, had an excellent view of the pond, and breakfast was delicious, and made fresh for each guest. The value could not be beat, the price we paid for this room was much...

We stayed at the pond house, which is comfortable, quiet and with the nice view. The traffic didn't bother us at all. We spent most time aound the Acadia, but did spent sometime around the house to relax at end of the day and enjoyed it. I think the owner saw the earlier comments about breakfast and improved. We had... More

My husband and I just returned from another stay at The Collier House. We had a very nice room, very spacious with our own private deck. I love this place for it's peacefullness, the ducks that we feed daily and the great staff. Our room was spot on clean both times we have stayed and if we needed anything we... More

First may I say I am saddened to hear of George's passing, and my condolences to the entire family. My husband and I stayed in the Honeymoon suite when we married in 1999. We were very impressed with the accomadations and the breakfast that was provided. George was an excellent chef, and,in addition to the meal he cooked each day... More

Let me start by saying that the staff was friendly and helpful. The place "shortcoming" was more due to our expectation. We wanted a quiet, relaxing setting and missed the fact that it is located on a very busy and noisy highway. Rooms are dated but clean. Breakfast ... welll, better skip it altogether. If you must then expect: 1.... More
