Wonderful hosts, great property with history and charm off the beaten path with mountains, rivers, lakes nearby

The Old Saco Inn is special, no doubt about it. 7 miles outside of Fryeburg, in a peaceful setting with hosts, Bruce and Jon going out of their way to make everyone feel at home and able to RELAX, I went with friends for a celebration and we barbequed the first night we arrived, eating in a screened porch (Maine is buggy in June but the property is sprayed and all of the rooms are screened) and then joining our hosts and their friends for marsh mellow roasting around a roaring campfire. Jon makes fantastic breakfasts! Not to be missed...Dinner is served Thursday-Saturday and the menu looked wonderful which we perused in their cosy bar. Free use of kayaks for a lark down the river at the bottom of the property which is set well back from the road.
Date of stay: June 2018
Room Tip: I had a large. comfortable room, Emma's loft across from the main lodge which I loved

    We stayed for three nights in the cleverly converted two horse stall part of the carriage house. It was roomy and delightful. The two new proprietors made this a wonderful time, from giving us tips on what to see in the area to making original cocktails (one they named after me!). The food was delicious and served beautifully in their large but cozy dining room. The view of the mountains and a walk on the property seeing the river, white birches and pines, fiddle head ferns and purple wood violets was a treat as was getting to know their dog Izzy. However, the best part was meeting up for dinner with a close high school friend after 48 years! The dinner they prepared for us was amazing and made the memorable event even more special.

    My friends and I came in for Sunday funday brunch and we were not disappointed! I love a good Bloody Mary and this was honestly one of the best. We split the blueberry french toast crumble as a "brunchetizer" and had omelettes and eggs Benedict for the main. The food was outstanding, the service was attentive, and we had a great chat with John (one of the owners). Beautiful, scenic, relaxing location. This place is a hidden gem and we look forward to coming back soon!

    There is free high speed internet and a flat screen TV in each room.

    The hosts are fun and personable. Lots of local activities.

    My wife and I went here for one night. We immediately loved the secluded location. We got there late and the dinning room was packed. We like bars better anyway. They have a small bar with a really impressive beer selection. Everyone - staff and guests - were friendly. We stayed in the Blue Room. Very comfortable bed. For dinner I had ribs - perfect. Breakfast was very well done - left full and satisfied.

    Room tip: Go right to their website they have pictures and descriptions of all their rooms.
