Reviews of Kilby House Inn

  • "I've stayed at a lot of B&B's and I can say that our experience at Kilby House was excellent. Greg is a terrific host quick to offer suggestions on what to do, the history of his lovely house, etc. There are 4 rooms, plus a small apartment (incl. kitchen) in a separate building that would be excellent for a stay of several days. The rooms are good sized, very clean and decorated very nicely; plenty of books to suit any taste. Our room had a canopy bed. There are 2 big sitting rooms downstairs available for guests, plus a dining room. Greg also makes a terrific breakfast; ours was french toast, sausage, juice, plenty of fruit and good coffee. Eastport is not Freeport in terms of fancy shopping or restaurants (especially in early December), but the beauty of the Downeast Maine coast is right there, including Campobello Island within a reasonable drive. The place to stay when you are in this neck of the woods."

  • "We spent two nights in this lovely inn. Greg, the innkeeper, was a wonderful host and chef. Our room was clean and comfortable and breakfast was divine. The rooms of the inn are full of antiques, each with their own story. It is within easy walking distance of the little downtown. Don't stay anywhere else when you are in Eastport."

  • "This was a great place to stay in Eastport! (really the only place) Greg is SO knowledgable about the entire area, planning trips, history, fun quirky facts about the town. Breakfast every morning was delicious and full of great conversation. Such a charming room and very clean, Greg is very accommodating. The only thing I wish we could have done was heard Greg play the beautiful old organ in the music room, that would have really topped the stay off. Thank you for a wonderful, most enjoyable time." - Jay and Jenny

  • "Oh, there are other options for accommodations in Eastport--but they have to pale in comparison. This late 18th c home is so fascinating that just visiting it would have been fun, but add to that how comfortable it is, how quiet despite all the period clocks!, the fabulous breakfasts--and best of all, Greg, the innkeeper--and you just want to move in and never leave. The portrait paintings, the china, the musical instruments, the furniture--this home is a lovingly refurbished gem by a gentleman who happens to be knowledgeable about local history, local attractions, and who is a gourmet cook. I rarely bother to upload photos, but I was so taken with the presentation of breakfast (every day I stayed) that you'll find one below. Note: If possible, the food was tastier than it looks! Greg is an enjoyable person who enjoys people. The whole experience was just wonderful and took the stress out of travel. And the rates were more than reasonable, considering those breakfasts!"

  • "What a beautiful inn! Greg is the best innkeeper! Everything was wonderful. The breakfasts were delicious and the presentation perfect. Greg made us laugh all weekend! He has such a personality. Greg was able to answer many questions and if he didn't have the answer, he would point us in the direction of someone who did. When we left we felt we were leaving a new friend. Thank you again Greg for making our stay perfect!"

  • "Our 2 night stay at Kilby House began with Greg, the innkeeper, greeting us outside upon arrival. Antique furniture and books fill all the nooks and crannies of this well kept historic home. Cool summer night breezes blew through opened windows of the front room. A tiny but perfectly appointed bathroom served us well. Greg prepared 2 outstanding breakfasts of fresh fruit, French toast, scrambled eggs, biscuits...the works. Very satisfying start to each day! (Sadly, no pictures) Following lively conversation and Greg's recommendations, we visited the local wine bar, St Andrew's and took an awesome hike at Cutler Cove in the Western Preserve. Thanks, Greg!!"

  • "We thoroughly enjoyed the Kilby House Inn. We stayed in the carriage house and it had everything we needed. Washer/dryer combo, good sized kitchen with fridge and dishwasher. It's within an easy walk to restaurants and shops. The bed was super comfortable and the gas wood stove added a cozy ambiance. Highly recommend!"

  • "The house is scheduled for painting, so don't let the condition of the exterior (as of July 2021) put you off. The interior is lovely and exceptionally clean. The host is eager to be helpful and makes a wonderful breakfast."

  • "After a long trip in our cross country move, full of weather delays...we landed at the Kilby House Inn for a few days! While we waited to close on our home, we stayed in the private Carriage House! It's amazing! Fully equipped kitchen, washer/dryer, comfy bed, just SO relaxing after our journey! Greg was a wonderful host and price was very reasonable! One of the best things is that we made a new local friend! 🙂 We highly recommend staying here if you visit Eastport! Thanks, Greg!"

  • "We just spent a week at the Kilby House and loved absolutely loved it. Our host, Greg is wonderful and is now a new friend. We are building in Maine, but during the process we will be back and forth from Texas and The Kilby House will be our home away from home."

  • "What a fantastic bed and breakfast! I cannot say enough good things about the Kilby House Inn to do it justice. It all started out with an impromptu trip to Eastport for me. There aren't too many options here, but luckily, the Kilby House Inn was recommended to me. I sent an email to Mr. Noyes, the Innkeeper (and a wonderful guy), and I got a response within the hour. To me, that's a great start. So many places I visit could learn a lot from Mr. Noyes. I travel a lot, so this was a very pleasant welcome to me. Not only was his response very informative, but he also included some personal recommendations for my travel plans, including beautiful sights that would be along the way on my drive and such. This is huge! I cannot find a way to express how exceptional this is to me. It's a big deal! Now, let's fast forward to my stay. For the first night, I stayed in a very nice room upstairs. It had a queen bed, and it's own full bathroom with a shower. Everything you could possibly need, and very comfortable. The Inn was packed that Sunday night, and I was exhausted from travel, so I turned in early. The second day, Mr. Noyes offered me his newest addition, the carriage house,for the remainder of the stay. I accepted, and stayed two nights in the carriage house. This is a separate, detached, fully equipped apartment. There is a full kitchen, washer and dryer, television, and comfortable sitting area inside. It was amazing! I couldn't be happier with this place, but the best part of the whole stay was Mr. Noyes! From the start of planning until the day I left, I really enjoyed talking to him. Such a great guy, and stories that are just great fun to hear. All in all, this is the Only place I would ever consider staying at if I visit Eastport again. Honestly, I may just come back someday to visit Mr. Noyes! Haha. If you read this much, stop wasting your time searching. Send an email, or give him a call. Let your experience begin. I am sure it will be just as exceptional as mine. Also, I am not paid for, or obligated to write this review. This is my honest unbiased review, and I am sticking to it!"

  • "The Kilby House Inn is a charming place to stay in Eastport. It's within walking distance of anywhere one would like to visit. The downstairs are furnished with period-correct pieces, while the upstairs bedrooms are large for a B&B. Our bathroom was unusually large as well. Greg, the owner, is knowledgable about the surrounding areas and even gave us his atlas to use as we traveled yesterday."

  • "My wife and I stayed 2 nights in August. The room was wonderful, beautiful furniture, modern spacious shower, breakfast was delicious ! The other guests were entertaining to talk to at breakfast including the Maine couple who drove a VW across Europe in the 1960's and sold it when they reached India but had to drive to Katmandu to import it first. You don't get this at Motel 6. Greg was a good cook, and good host.He sent us to Campobello (we wanted to go anyway) Then he sent us to Back Bay New Brunswick, using 2 ferry's and on to St Andrews New Brunswick. Thanks!"

  • "Greg was an excellent host. He made a breakfast to die for, accommodating four different people's dietary restrictions. (One of us was allergic to eggs, one of us only ate eggs, one of us was vegetarian, and one of us was diabetic). The menu was diverse with French toast, eggs, lots of fruit, ham, bacon, biscuits with butter and jam, etc. The rooms are extremely clean and there are books galore to choose from for entertainment. I wish I could have stayed an extra week to just relax around the Victorian era home. He cleaned the rooms daily and provided soap, shampoo, hair dryer, etc. GREAT PLACE to stay in Eastport area and he honored the federal per diem rate, and tax exemption status, as we were on work travel. Make sure you check the downtown out and eat at Quoddy Bay Lobster Company. It closes by 6pm though, like most places in town. There is a great little coffee shop nearby and lots of little shops to peruse during the day, and whale watching tours from local windjammers shop (daily at 11ish). Everything is walking distance from Kilby House Inn, a little slice of Maine heaven."

  • "Absolutely beautiful little B&B, directly across from the water. Our host was sweet, kind and funny. Great recommendations of places to see and visit in the area. Breakfast was delicious. Great stay in a beautiful quiet little seaside town."

  • "10/10 would recommend! We stayed in the "cottage house" to the back of the b&b and it was incredible. The interior was beautiful (wood paneling) and it was outfitted with a full kitchen, washer/dryer, and back porch. Only complaints are minor: small bathroom and uncomfortable couch, but those are no reason not to stay! The walking distance from downtown is incredible, we didn't have to get in our car to go anywhere in Eastport!"

    Anna B. - Cohoes, NY (via Yelp)
  • "Tastefully decorated, clean, comfortable, and quiet B&B. Delicious home cooked breakfast shared with interesting and friendly guests. Greg, the owner was informative about the area and a terrific host. I look forward to staying here again."
