It is remarkable that the Littlefield family have been devoted stewards to Oakland House Seaside Resort and its beautiful environs since 1889. They have continued to uphold a long tradition of warmth and hospitality. Sally and Jim's dedicated care of Oakland Resort and its guests is apparent -- from tending sweeping flower beds at the main house (cheerily welcoming all) to maintaining and appointing seaside cottages in very charming ways. Their love of place imbues the resort with an idyllic sensibility. Walking trails on the property have been thoughtfully built, ensuring woodland foraging and lovely vistas. The setting -- stunning coastline -- offers long views of the islands of eastern Penobscot Bay that are truly breathtaking. Oakland House Resort ... to Savor!

The coast of Maine has a beauty all its own and the Oakland House displays it like none other. The best part is the location. It's remote, but not so remote that you feel detatched from everything. Fifteen minutes and you can be in Blue Hill and in an hour and a half you can be at Acadia National Park.

The staff was great and the innkeepers were friendly and gracious when I met them. The cabin was cute and clean, nothing to improve upon. Again, I mention location!! Beautiful!!!

Bring a book with you so that you can take advantage of the piece and quiet. Enjoy the porch of your cabin or take a short hike that's on property that ends at a beautiful view from a large open rocky area (my favorite spot), it's on the property map.

Let me say that if you are looking for someplace that will give you something to do day in and day out, this is not the place for you. However, if you're looking for a place to let time slow down and that'll allow you to recharge, look no further. It's an amazing place that everyone should experience.

If Nature and beautiful landscapes is your thing, you will be amazed by the peaceful tranquility offered by the Oakland House Seaside Resort. Weather it be listening to the ocean waves crash, or taking a hike around the resort. This place is a must for outdoor nature lovers.

The Oakland House is timeless and beautiful. Watch the seals and sailboats go by in the world-class Eggemoggin Reach, sit in adirondack chairs, visit the local art scene, experience great service, the list goes on... truly a diamond in the rough. The Oakland House has history and personality. The care that the Littlefield family has taken in keeping and improving the expansive property (complete with its own hiking trails- one that leads up to a scenic bluff, canoes, fine dining, beautifully built cottages and a garden to boot) shows at every opportunity.
