Exploring Northern Maine: An Area Guide

Washburn, Maine is one of those places that seems to embody small-town America, where folks greet one another at the mailbox and where kids can be seen making snow angels and igloos in their yards. The friendliness that makes us a great town to settle down in also makes us a fantastic place to visit for business or pleasure.

Where Peace and Quiet is a Way of Life

Our summers are wonderfully temperate and whether you're berrying, kayaking or picnicking, you'll enjoy the long afternoons of cool breezes and bright sunshine. September begins the brilliant natural beauty of the fall with a peak in October.  In early November; it's not uncommon to start seeing light flurries begin to cling and glisten upon the exteriors of all the houses and farms.

A Location that's Hard to Beat

Whether it's shopping at the Aroostook Centre Mall just 10 minutes away, seeing museums in in the area or taking a day trip to Canada's Grand Falls, you'll find so many things to enjoy within easy driving distance of our hotel. In the winter months, you don't even have to drive—there are plenty of snowmobile trails that connect right to our hotel. Snowmobiling is an especially fun way to see the beauty of winter while raising your heart rate and endorphins at the same time—making the trek that much more enjoyable.

When you get here, let us help you plan your local itinerary. Our friendly front desk staff is always more than happy to recommend restaurants and points of interest that you're sure to enjoy.
