    I love the White Cedar Inn...this was my second stay and this time I brought one of my dogs...the dog room is GREAT! and extremely clean. They provided a bowl for water, doggy bags for cleanup detail, and a blanket just for her so that she could sleep on the bed with me...which was very insightful because even if I made her stay off the bed, she would have been up on the bed as soon as she knew that I was asleep. I highly recommend this wonderful B&B.

    Our family spent 2 nights at the White Cedar Inn and had a fantastic time - Monica and Rock were so helpful and made us feel very welcome. When our rental car needed replacing they were very accommodating and made sure we knew that if we had to stay another night they would make room, they also gave us an update on which roads were closed due to snow (no something Australian's are used to thinking about). Overall this was one of the best places we stayed on our trip and we hope to make the long journey back one day.

    Excellent stay at the White Cedar!!

    Monica and Rock were wonderful, warm, and hospitable hosts. We had a cozy one night get-a-way in Freeport and they made it well worth it. They hosted Veterans for November 11, appreciating all they do for our country with a free night at their home. The breakfast was their Tuscan Eggs specialty, excellent! Loved the conversation and the coziness of their B & B, we will certainly be back again!!

    This Rare Perfect Place On The Maine Coast Keeps Us Coming Back. We’ve enjoyed many “quickie” vacations at White Cedar Inn and find that after countless “OK” experiences at other New England and Canadian Bed and Breakfasts, Monica and Rock have got it just right. Cheerful and helpful, these hosts seem like family from the first hello. What to visit, where to go for a day’s adventure or firsthand knowledge of all the many eateries and fine restaurants in their region of coastal Maine. This year, as in the past, we sat in the Inn’s chairs at the curb and watched Freeport’s delightful small town Fourth of July parade. It made us smile, wave, clap and scamper for tossed candy tossed by beauty queens and marching Brownie Scouts. (I found out I wasn’t too old for scampering.) On our winter visits, there are no parades but plenty of exploration two blocks away at LL Bean’s campus of specialty stores. We think the White Cedar is the perfect “get-the-heck-away-for-a-few-days” place to stay.
