Inn Details
Only 3 blocks to Camden harbor in the heart of the village, the Inns at Blackberry Common welcome you with luxurious accommodations and fine dining in Camden Maine! With 18 guestrooms in two historic buildings, the inn is nestled in the midst of over an acre of gardens and woodlands. Enjoy a gas fireplace, soak in a whirlpool or clawfoot tub and relax on your deck or patio. Romantic Garden Suite and Tinker's Cottage Rooms are tucked amid perennial gardens & have private entrances. Waken to the aroma of our signature coffee while Chef Jim prepares a sumptuous breakfast, with Maine specialties featuring berries and herbs from our gardens. Daily specials include our signature Blackberry Sage French toast or fresh herbed omelets. Our yogurt, topped with Blackberry's own granola and fresh fruit, is always available. Called "one of the outstanding reasons to visit New England" by YANKEE's "Travel Guide to New England."

Clean, quaint and the little comforts that make your visit more enjoyable, like a one-cup fresh coffee maker and pay-by honor system wine and beer in the fridge. We found it very charming and quiet, (except for some upstairs "neighbors" with small kids) Breakfast was excellent. This inn is walking distance to downtown, which hosts a great bookstore, too! We would stay there again if we are in the area.

We stayed 2 nights over the summer. We loved the property and the food was excellent. It had the best of a B&B (great food, charming environment) and boutique hotel (no pressure to interact with the host/staff unless we sought it out). This set the bar high for other B&B's. We'll be back.
What a lovely stay!
