    Fabulous Bed & Breakfast

    May 06, 2012

    Just returned home from our first time visit to Oak Gables Bed and Breakfast in beautiful Damariscotta, Maine. The experience was wonderful in every way. The proprietor, Martha Scudder, is the perfect hostess and we can't say enough about her kind hospitality. The house and surrounding grounds (situated right on the banks of the Damariscotta River) are stunningly beautiful. The living and dining rooms are filled with antiques as are the handsome looking bedrooms. Full "Maine"breakfast included well prepared eggs, bacon, toast, English muffins with choice of excellent coffee and tea. The house is situated a one or two minute drive from downtown Damariscotta. It's far more peaceful and quiet than the "main drag" bed and breakfast establishments and the cost is far more reasonable than those others. Kathleen and Paul Kuritz, Lewiston, Maine
