Just minutes from the Portland Head Light, the Inn by the Sea is a luxurious escape on the coast of Maine. Canine guests are welcomed with treats and L.L.Bean blankets. We stayed in a garden suite, which was surprisingly spacious.

Dog Friendly: Captain Jefferds Inn: Kennebunkport, Maine

On our trip to Maine in May we stayed at many beautiful inns and hotels, but this one stood out because of its excellence in every aspect: the room, the food, the location, and the dog friendly amenities. We had a wonderful stay at the beautiful Captain Jefferds Inn. The breakfast was delicious--fresh fruit with sorbet, popovers with blueberry preserves, and cheesy chicken. The room pictured above is the camden room, unfortunately it's not a dog friendly room. My favorite room is the lovely terrace room, which has french doors looking out onto the terrace and garden. The shops and restaurants of Kennebunkport are all within walking distance of the inn. We also walked Becky, our miniature dachshund, to a small beach right after we got settled.

Dog Friendly: Hilton Garden Inn: Portland, Maine

The Hilton Garden Inn in Portland, Maine is a typical hotel in an excellent location.  It is also one of the few hotels in Portland that allows dogs.  On our most recent trip to Portland we decided not to rent a car because Portland is such a charming city with so many places to eat, shop, and visit within walking distance so the hilton was our perfect home base.

Dog Friendly: Rental: Quaint Cape on Quoddy Head: Lubec, Maine

Located less than half a mile from West Quoddy Head Lighthouse, this quaint cape has three bedrooms and one bathroom. This 1850s post-and-beam cape is the second most eastern private house in the United States. With ten private acres and 350 feet of rocky shore less than 75 feet from the front door, this is the perfect Maine cottage to escape to with your dog!

Dog Friendly: Pilgrim's Inn: Deer Isle, Maine

The Pilgrim's Inn is on Deer Isle, a very tranquil area of Maine which can be accessed by bridge. Dogs are allowed in the Ginny's and Rugosa Rose Cottages. We enjoyed our stay in Ginny's Cottage 1, a beautifully decorated cottage with a lot of old-fashioned charm.

Dog Friendly: Hartstone Inn: Camden, Maine

I'll start this blog with my favorite inn, the Hartstone Inn in Camden, Maine. It's a beautiful inn in the heart of a perfect coastal village. The inn is located within walking distance of Camden's shops and restaurants. Dogs can be accommodated in several of the rooms in the Hideaway. The Hartstone Inn does not discriminate, the dog friendly rooms are equally as nice as any other.

The focus of this blog is not just to inform you about dog friendly inns, hotels, and rentals, but to inform you of those that stand out from the crowd.
