My boyfriend and i stayed here one night...average older rooms but was clean and close to perkins cove and the marginal way....park and walk! Was nice not to have to drive everywhere. Had a nice little continental breakfast before we headed out the next morning!

Thank you cindypj for sharing your visit with T/A. Our entire staff appreciates you mentioning the cleanliness of our property. This may be a good time to remind people that rates for our rooms with a Queen size bed range from only 109/nt offseason, to only 199/nt in the peak of summer. We also may be the only waterfront property... More

We arrived a little early for check in, but since our rooms were ready, we were graciously welcomed to check in. When I opened the door to our balcony room, I was blinded by they beautiful gleaming hard wood floors. The room was immaculate. The first thing I always check is the bathroom. You can tell a great hotel versus... More

Thank you very much, taxachusetts, for taking the time to write such a lengthy review for the T/A folks. I am so glad that you found the Riverside at Perkins Cove.

The Riverside is located on beautiful Perkins Cove in Ogunquit. The motel has incredibly well landscaped grounds and great views of the cove and the Atlantic beyond. The rooms are spacious and immaculately kept. There is a wonderful continental breakfast provided that included tasty doughnuts and muffins from Congdon's when we were there. There is plenty of parking and it... More

The Riverside is the best location location in Ogunquit for the traveler who wants to arrive, park the car, and forget about decisions for the length of their stay. The view of Perkins Cove and the Atlantic on the other side is wonderful. The up and down of the drawbridge and the coming and going of work boats and pleasure... More

I had read the reviews on Trip Advisor and had high hopes for this motel. As a former local returning to visit my ailing mom, I booked for 8 nights, believing I had found a gem in terms of price and location.

Dear jkp250, We are sorry to hear of your disappointment today. We did respond immediately, having maintenance repair the leaky faucet. If you remember,the front desk responded to you, of course, but, what you wanted for a response was an immediate room change, which unfortunately was not possible, because we were sold out. We were eventually able to move you... More

Second year at the Riverside Motel. Obviously we came back, because we enjoyed our first visit. This year was no disappointment. Other reviewers' have said it all, 'clean, peaceful, and spectacular views'. What's the saying - - - location, location, location. Not to mention a great staff! No doubt newer, more 'robust' accommodations are available in Ogunquit and the price... More

This was our first time at Riverside and we would not hesitate to return. The view from our room was nothing short of spectacular. It was what you picture that Fall in New England should look like.
