This place and the folks that run and own it are literal life savers !!! We were stranded, not from just one, but two different lodgings while in the Rangeley, Stratton, Eustis area of Maine. It was 9:45pm and other motels,hotels, and lodgers were not answering their phones. On a whim I dialed saddleback inn, and thank god we did! Not only did someone pick up the phone, but they stayed on site until we arrived and we were a good 35 mins away. If anyone has driven route 16 north from rangeley to Stratton they know it's moose alley at dusk especially, they knew and told us to be careful and that they would be waiting. They were right, we saw 7, four females, one with a baby, and two males with racks bigger then mine!! At one point we really thought we may have to sleep in the car... they saved the night and the trip for us. We can not thank them enough. The room was warm, clean and had everything we needed. The sheets on the bed were wonderful and smelled of clean linens. No smoking in the rooms but they give you what you need out on the balcony outside, where smoking is allowed. Being so late to the area, we actually missed our dinner place by an hour. Thank god the saddleback had a fridge and microwave for us to at least have something to eat. They supplied all the goods for a shower and had hairdryers available at the office. The towels were soft and they had extra pillows for the beds. They have dish tv, and so, we were able to watch a movie or two. They do have sleep hours, when no one is in the office, but they do always have someone on site and a phone number you can call if you need assistance. This place was truly wonderful and everything a lodging should be in the hospitality industry. The best pasty was waking up in the morning and stepping onto the balcony and seeing the lake down the way. Such a good view to wake up to when it was too dark to see the night before. We are already planning our next trip, with a stay at the Saddleback Inn in Rangeley Maine. They go above and beyond for travelers in the area and you would be lucky to have them host you and your family ! read more
