    Thank you for a wonderful stay. I come up for the Christmas Prelude every year and have a great time. Andy and Doug make the experience so much fun. The rooms are clean and beautiful as is the rest of the Inn. Doug cooks a fantastic breakfast. Thank you and we will be back again.

    I want to thank Andy and Doug for sharing their wonderful home. This place is a gem. Right on the Marginal Way, it has spectacular views and the hosts add so much to create the perfect vacation spot. I can't believe some of the earlier "less than perfect" reviews. This place is right on the rocky shore of beautiful Maine and it is an immaculate B&B. Thank you Andy and Doug for sharing your lives with us. We'll be back (don't forget the new saw blade)

    What a great time we had last weekend! I miss Andy and Doug already....and I love me some Uncle Phil :) I am not sure I would have loved Ogunquit quite as much without the three of them.

    Andy and Doug made us feel very welcome (as they do every year). We've been coming to the Rockmere for Christmas prelude for several years now. It always feels like we're coming to stay with friends. Lots of laughs at breakfast time and beautiful decor to admire on every corner. Can't wait to go again!


    We searched for a B&B and found a home away from home!

    Everything about this wonderful inn exceeded our expectations (which were high to begin with)! This was our first stay in Ogunquit, a quaint coastal Maine town where "off-season" only means "too cold to swim" ;~) Our hosts, Andy and Doug (Bob had temporarily defected to Florida), were superb - not only well-informed about Ogunquit and its surrounds, but delightful story-tellers who kept us well entertained with Ogunquit's history and lore. The inn is a historic home, built in 1899 by the Stearns family (of Stearns and Foster mattress fame). It exudes Victorian charm and every room is gracefully and exquisitely appointed. Seaviews abound, as the inn is located only steps from Marginal Way, a paved footpath beginning at Perkins Cove and running for 1-¼ miles to the marvelous expanse of Ogunquit Beach. Our room - the Drudy - was located on the third floor, with a lovely view of the sea, moonrise and sunrise. Clean, homey and welcoming and a most comfortable bed! Breakfast was fabulous and elegantly presented in the fireplaced dining room (with roaring fire, I might add). Something about this place attracts good times and good folk, as we spent our breakfasts and late evenings in merry cheer with the other guests, trading stories and sharing laughter... Andy and Doug possess a great love of nature and animals, as evidenced by the gardens, the statuary, the whimsical curios and bric-a-brac ornamenting the house. We loved every moment of our stay and can't wait to return!
