Just as friendly and comfortable as can be. The hosts are fantastic, they make you feel welcome and are clearly happy you are staying with them. The breakfast shows their appreciation in spades. Hot, strong coffee, fresh fruit, danish, cheeses and more, all you need to kick off your day. The room was spotless. It's clean, comfortable and more than you would expect for the great value. I know, we've stayed in hotels at twice the price that were questionable. Here you are are safe, welcomed and will rest well. After your unexpectedly yummy and peaceful breakfast you'll be ready to tackle the day. I was. Wish we had time for the pool... read more

Maplewood Inn & Motel - Lots of fun Autumn things to do nearby! - Hotels Near Me - Casco, Maine

I know everything is particularly pricey during summer time, so I'll try not to focus on money. My family and I went there for 2 nights. The people running it are very nice and friendly, and the breakfast is very good and allows you to choose from different sort of (sweet) things. Also, it's quite well located, near the state park and Sebago lake, and Naples town which is ok. There are just a couple of problems. First, being so close to the main road, it's a little noisy. But the main problem is cleanness. The bed sheets and the bathroom and towels were ok, but there were spiderwebs all over the place. And therefore, there were a lot of spiders. Are they sacred here like cows in India or something? I understand we're in the countryside and you're supposed to find a bug or two (or not) but the room was full of all kind of spiders, big and small. If the maid would've cleaned thoroughly that morning, you'd seen one or two maybe but not so many. Also, the doors and walls were full of fingerprints from previous guests. And there was a t-shirt between the dresser and the wall, so she does never look around when she cleans? The joke of it all is that we had been given an envelope to tip the maid! read more

Cute and charming Inn with a motel room option or the Inn option. The room we had was in the motel part. The room was very lovely with a fridge and microwave. It was a little outdated but we liked it a lot. They have a very nice pool. The location is perfect ! So close to everything. However our favorite part of this place is the Inn Keepers, Rene and Patrick. They are both so nice and helpful! Probably the friendliest Inn Keepers I've ever met!!! read more

See all

We agree with the other 5-star reviews that the hosts are warm and wonderful, and the hospitality is top notch. Rene and Patrick are natural hosts, and clearly love what they do. We stayed in the Inn for three nights as we attended a whirlwind wedding weekend. Our first floor room was clean as a whistle, freshly painted, and had a comfortable queen bed, ac, a wide closet, dresser, two slipper chairs, hassock, tv, floor-to-ceiling windows overlooking the back yard and woods, large bathroom, and private entrance off a deck adorned with containers of beautiful flowers. The breakfast buffet included orange juice, cold cereal and milk, chilled hb eggs, baby gouda and Vache qui Rit cheese, a variety of rolls, bagels and danish, jams, honey, butter, fresh fruit salad and yogurts, as well as satisfying coffee and tea (my spouse is a picky coffee critic). We've stayed in other B&Bs that are famous for their hot breakfasts, but Maplewood's was also good and filling. Rene and Patrick did their best to fulfill every request. They provided an iron for our formal attire. We were allowed to use anything in the kitchen at any hour, and they made room in the fridge and freezer for leftover party food. When a rain shower threatened, Patrick rescued my beach towel from the deck where I'd left it to dry. He donated freezer packs to safeguard our food on the drive home. Reading the other reviews, I was surprised by the complaint that the Inn looks like a house. It IS a house -- as most B&Bs are. If our travels take us to the lakes region again, we're staying at Maplewood. Thank you! LS read more

Our stay at the Maplewood in was a lovely one. The owners are very nice and do a lot to make you feel at home. We stayed during autumn and the area was simply stunning! We stayed in a cozy room in the B&B, had clean sheets, enjoyed a "European style" breakfast every morning and got good advice about touristic and nature sites to visit. Overall there was a nice vibe and I would definitely recommend others to stay here! read more

Nice people, but not what we expected from reading the previous YELP reviews and looking at the website. We are a family of 5 and a dog. We were looking for a clean room with a nice outdoor pool, continental breakfast and dog friendly. Our room was clean, the breakfast was okay, and we loved being able to have our dog in the room! But... we were expecting some comfort and aesthetic appeal. We saw uncomfortable, worn out plastic adirondack chairs for pool furniture, overgrown weeds around the pool and buildings, outdated furnishings, and needed building repairs. With some updates and a grounds keeper the room may have been worth the $200 a night we paid. read more

I love this place dearly! I went up there for the fourth of July and to relax at the lake and this was the perfect place to stay. not only is it close to the state park/jet ski rental places - but Rene & Patrick are 2 of the nicest, most wonderful, hospitable people on the planet. They are so friendly, and lovely. They really make you feel at home in their beautiful inn/motel. We stayed in the motel which was immaculately clean and comfortable - and the pool was right outside too! It was lovely! The breakfast was amazing. fresh fruit coffee bagels milk oj etc etc...and it's free! Just, really - I can't express how fabulous this place was. If you're heading up to Sebago - this place is cheap clean and in a perfect location! read more

I stayed at the motel here with my boyfriend because my family was staying across the street at the resort and I could not have been more pleased with the experience. The hosts were extremely friendly, rooms were clean, beds comfy, the pool is right outside the rooms, and there were plenty of options at breakfast. I was sick for part of the trip and Rene asked multiple times how I was doing and gave me some oatmeal since I couldn't eat much else. The place has a really cozy feel and is convenient for anyone needing to stay around the Sebago area. Not sure if staying in the house would be the same experience, but I would definitely do the motel room again. read more

We had the pleasure staying here last night. It was amazing! One of the nicest bed and breakfasts we've ever stayed in. René and Patrick were a delight. Even before we got here, they recommended the Black Bear Café down the road - great entertainment with good food. There's a nautical theme throughout the Inn - very homey. Breakfast was European-style - eggs, pastries, coffee and tea- Everything you could want, and was very filling. Clean, nicely decorated and a most congenial host. If you are in the area, this is a great place to stay. read more

A lovely place to rest your head, owned by the kindest couple you could hope for. They were my landlords for two semesters, when I was in medical school, and I couldn't have asked for a nicer experience. They treated me like family. I rented a room in their chalet, while my friend was in the actual inn itself. We both had a great experience. If you want to beat the hustle and bustle of the big city, and want to experience small country living, then you need to look no further. read more

I was turned off from this place from the start..., as soon as you walk in it feels like you are at someone's house. I was trying to be optimistic about the place, I didn't book the room. The room was a little outdated but I thought everything would be fine... then we went to bed. Oh my god the beds inside of a prison could be have been more comfortable. It was awful. The slightest movement caused the headboard to bang against the wall. I got zero sleep in two nights. You could hear people upstairs and in the kitchen moving around late in the evening and in the early morning too. If you do stay here maybe try one of the rooms not in the main house. read more

Odd place. An older house is the inn, with an adjacent building with about six units constructed more recently. We got a 2-room "tour" but weren't offered a room in the inn though they didn't seem very full. Thin walls and my wife's bed was lumpy. No headboard on the bed. But it was clean, which is certainly important. A little noisy from traffic passing by on the highway. No breakfast was offered because it was after Labor Day. Really? Price was $98, which was Ok considering it was close to where we were going. But $200 in the summer boating season? We would look elsewhere. read more

Outstanding hospitality. The couple who owns and manages is wonderful. Breakfast is fabulous. Rooms are very comfortable. Warm, stylish design of rooms make for a very relaxed and interesting experience. Living room great for family discussions and fun. read more

We had a very negative experience with the manager of this place last week. We had booked two rooms via telephone, and were not given the cancellation policy at that time. The manager subsequently told us - face to face when we attempted to resolve the situation - that he was under no obligation to provide the cancellation policy unless the customer specifically asked for it, which is a rather remarkable position to take. The cancellation policy requires 1 week (!) notice. We had assumed it was 24 hours, like most places. We subsequently cancelled, and this manager, Rene, attempted to charge us for the entire stay for both rooms! After a very unpleasant conversation, in which he was belligerent and condescending, he finally agreed to charge us half. He had treated a good friend of ours in a similar way a couple of days earlier, which influenced our decision to cancel. I urge anyone considering this Maplewood Inn to think about our experience carefully. If you run into any problems, you will have to deal with this same manager. We are part of a large group of people who will be requiring lodging in the Casco area several times a year for the foreseeable future, and obviously none of our group would ever even consider the Maplewood ever again. We made this clear to Rene while we were trying to resolve this situation, but evidently the loss of thousands of dollars of potential revenue mattered less to him than trying to rub our noses into his contrived policy. So caveat emptor. read more

I visit my old summer camp in Maine every summer and always stay here (this summer was my 4th time!). Rene, the owner, is a fantastic host and talking over the phone with Patrick to book my stay is always a delight. The Inn is close to the town of Naples which has lots to do. Since it is right outside of the town, the Inn is extremely quiet. I am always comfortable! There are personal AC units in each room so you are in control of the climate at all times. I have stayed at the Maplewood Inn with a friend and solo. Rooms are large and there are plenty of drawers and closet space for anything you brought with you (or plan to buy at the Freeport outlets!). Breakfast is fresh and delicious with bagels (I always have it with cream cheese and jelly), pastries, fresh fruit, coffee, and juice. The bathrooms are clean, the bed is always made and Rene always has a smile on his face. He even let me use his computer to get directions! It is always a pleasure to stay here and I recommend this cozy B&B to everyone. read more

An extremely charming place! As someone injured from out of state, I was stuck in the nearby emergency room needing a place to spend the night. My wife called the maplewood inn, and the kind owners stayed up late to make sure we got in ok. Very nice room. As someone who normally stays in chain hotels, I didn't know what to expect. The room was clean, but a little dated. Nothing too bad. Clean and comfortable bed and linens. You can tell that the owners have been working hard fixing it up. Breakfast was quaint and charming (which made my wife fall in love with the place). The pool is well kept but I personally did not go swimming in it. I also did not use the in-room tv and free wifi, but it was there if we needed it. The owners completely made this place for me. René EMBODIES hospitality. He helped us find a taxi service, joked with us as we waited for said taxi, and was overall a kindhearted, caring person. I'm one that loves giving business to nice people, and I might have to come back to Maine just to stay again! read more

My wife and I had an enjoyable stay in the Inn portion. The accommodations were delightful and clean -with cute interior decorating touches by Patrick. Attention to guests' needs was top rate. We would definitely stay again. read more
