This is an inn where the owners know every guest. They are very welcoming and friendly. They sit at the little bar with you. You eat meals with them. It is a small cozy place. It appears great for snowmobilers or river rafters. We used it just to get away and really enjoyed it. The area is remote and beautiful.

We stopped here for one night on our way up from Portland to Quebec. We arrived late afternoon having driven through some stunning scenery. The Inn is quite a modest little place, but we were made welcome. There were only the two of us and another couple staying so unfortunately the restaurant was closed for dinner. We were advised that... More

We stayed before and after a rafting trip with The Three River Rafting Company, which I booked together. We did feel that we were in the middle of nowhere (we were) driving up to The Forks so were very pleasantly surprised (and relieved) with how welcoming and comfortable the Inn was. Room was nicely furnished and comfortable with a view... More

First the good: The staff is extremely friendly and helpful. This point cannot be overstated. The rooms are immaculately clean. The wireless internet connection speed is excellent The average: Although the rooms are exceptionally clean, they only provided two small pillows. OK for me but not enough for the significant other. We should have asked for another pillow and I... More

My husband and I stayed at Inn at the River and were more than happy with our stay. We stayed the night before we rafted on the Kennebec with the Three Rivers Rafting Company. More like a bed and breakfast, the Inn has about 12 rooms plus a bigger area called The Carriage House where large groups can stay. We... More

We stayed here the night before, as well as the night of, a whitewater rafting trip on the Kennebec. It was a very clean and comfortable hotel. The staff is friendly and very knowledgeable of the area. It’s very nice to see people who genuinely seem to enjoy their jobs. We were lucky because we went during the week (and... More

We stopped here on our trip north to Quebec City. The whole experience was delightful with dedicated and helpful staff (thank you Bobby!), a clean and comfortable room and a delicious continental breakfast that included delicious homemade wild blueberry muffins! A definite must on your route to Quebec or, if you are more adventurous try one of their outdoor rafting... More

Was looking for a place between Quebec City and Portland to spend a night and picked Inn by the River off the web. It turned into the best experience we had on the 2 week Canada/Maine trip! Not only is the place very comfortable, but we loved the fact that there was no telephone or television in the room! Dinner... More

We were heading up to Quebec and broke up the trip by staying in Maine. There are other similar B&B's close by at half the price. The place was very clean and the rooms were nice. If that is all you want, you will be very happy. The problem for us was that there is no phone service here, no... More
