Maple Hill Farm Bed & Breakfast Inn
-
An aerial view of the Inn showing our extensive solar electric and hot water system on our room. We are "deep green" with a wind turbine, too, and offer an intimate bed & breakfast experience along with full service event facilities.
The Inn's grounds are ideal for weddings under the 100+ year old maple trees, and the on-site events and conference facilities can host receptions of any size, and custom catering and bar service is available in-house with our dedicated staff.
Our outdoor hot tub overlooking the woods. This secluded tub is available year-round to all the guests at the Inn, and is immediately adjacent to the sauna.
Our front porch in the beautiful colors of autumn. The original "core" of this Victorian-era farmhouse was built in 1906 and has been lovingly restored and expanded by its innkeepers of over 20 years.
The front of the inn in the springtime, with the Carriage House to the left. The expansive front lawn includes inviting seating areas, and is at the heart of the 150 acres of rolling fields and woods surrounding the inn.
One of our HUGE double whirlpool tubs comfortably seats two side-by-side (measuring 4' by 6' in size!) with direct access to a very private deck under the branches of a sugar maple tree. This deck leads to a stairway to the sauna and outdoor hot tub.
Guest room 1 which is often the bridal suite, with a king bed, HUGE double whirlpool tub in the private bath, gas fireplace, private deck, and a commanding view over the front yard and animal pasture and barn beyond where you'll often see a llama or two strolling.
The inside of our outdoor sauna building -- just waiting for you, and open year-round!
This first floor room has a king bed, HUGE double private whirlpool tub, gas fireplace, and sunny views of the front yard and animal pasture and barn beyond.
This room (Room 3) has a double bed, tub/shower in attached private bath, gas fireplace, a writing desk, and great cross-ventilation as well as access to a stairway to the sauna and outdoor hot tub. All rooms have robes to borrow, Cable TV, DVD players, clock-radio with nature sounds, iron and ironing board, and more!

Maine's first certified "Environmental Leader" green lodging establishment (2004) and "One of 30 Great U.S. Inns" (Travel+Leisure, 2002) both aptly describe our unique combination of pampered service for relaxing getaways or business travel combined with our barnyard menagerie of llamas, pony, goats, sheep, cow, and many chickens. Featuring the largest solar electric array in Maine plus solar hot water and a wind turbine, this fully restored 1906 gambrel Victorian farmhouse (major renovations completed in 2001) is far back from the public road on many acres of unspoiled rural beauty, yet just minutes to Hallowell's National Historic District with unique shopping, great dining, and antiquing alongside the banks of the Kennebec River. You'll be greeted at the front desk made from a slab of historic Hallowell granite which once served as the front step to the farmhouse. Central to Maine's coast, lakes, and mountains (all within an easy hour's drive). Adjacent 600+ acre wildlife preserve provides a pristine pond for canoeing and trails for hiking or cross-country skiing. Our own free-range fresh eggs are featured in the full custom, cooked-to-order breakfast. Spacious antique furnished rooms have private baths, A/C, phones, TV, DVD/VCR, and individual temperature control. Four rooms have HUGE double whirlpool tubs, three have private decks, and five have gas fireplaces for the ultimate romantic getaway. The adjacent Carriage House, connected by the Porte Cochere, is ideal for meetings and intimate weddings, and the Gathering Place event center attached to the rear of the Inn is available for larger business and social events.

My husband and I stayed here on our wedding night, and we will definitely be returning! Just outside of Augusta, Maine, it offers the country feel that we love, but close enough to town if you need essentials! The staff was great, very unobtrusive but easily accessible. We didn't venture into the kitchen much, but I noticed at check-in that it was fully stocked

Vince and Scott do an outstanding job as friendly innkeepers and provide excellent information about the Augusta area as well as Maine. Meeting with other visitors over a wonderful and nutritious breakfast can mean talking with legislators, business leaders, state agency leaders, and new folks coming to Maine for the first time. A warm, inviting rural setting and a beautiful spot.

4.6 out of 5A Peaceful and Welcoming Inn
March 24, 2013
Maple Hill Farm Inn is the only place I will consider staying in the Augusta, Maine area. A beautiful farm inn, a welcoming and friendly host and a peaceful night of sleep prepared me for a busy day of Capitol events, meetings and presentations. Scott was very helpful and I was impressed with the attention to guest needs, including a breakfast-to-go because I had to leave early in the morning. This inn highly deserves the accolades it receives for its clean energy systems but is worth a stay because of its comfort for its overnight guests.
5 out of 5A wonderful place to stay!
March 18, 2013
Scott and Vince are exceptional hosts! The B & B is one of the best I have ever stayed at, with all the amenities of home plus! The gas fired fireplace made the room cozy (particularly on a cold winter's night). This will be on my list to stay at in the future.

January 24, 2013
arrived around 3:30, settled in, but then took in local pub fare in Hallowell (quaint artsy village only 5 minutes away). Concluded the evening with champagne in the jacuzzi-- great romantic evening in a winter woodsy setting-- couldn't be more serene. Next morning we had a wonderful breakfast. Were treated so well!!!!

We stayed for one night in January at the Maple Hill Farm. It's just minutes outside Augusta, so there is plenty to do in the area. The rooms were spacious and the jacuzzi tubs were a great place to relax with a bottle of wine. The scenery is beautiful, there was a flock of turkey right outside in the morning. The breakfast was delicious and the owners are extremely nice. They've really thought of everything for a relaxing worry free stay.

You can order whatever you'd like off the breakfast menu, including free-range eggs from the farm any way you like them, including coddled or even Eggs Benedict Arnold (Arnold launched his "bateaux" from Pittston, just across the Kennebec River from Hallowell, on his historic and ill-fated trip to Canada). You can have pancakes with wild Maine blueberries and real Maine maple syrup from the great north woods, or french toast, oatmeal, cold cereals, fresh fruit, juice, and muffins cooked fresh each morning. Whatever your pleasure, we'll create breakfast just the way you want it.Special meal options
