I arrived at Sprucewold on a cold, drizzly mid-week evening after Labor Day. A fire was burning in the fireplace, another guest was reading in the lobby, and a note was left at the reception desk with my key. I essentially checked myself in and figured it all out on my own. The lodge lobby is cheerful and the large... More

“Getting away” is a much over-used expression these days. As the phrase pertains to vacation destinations, it seems we rarely opt for places without creature comforts, modern conveniences and modern telecommunications access. Let’s face it. Unless one elects to hack and trek through jungles, scale distant mountain peaks, sail solo around the world, and search out places far from the... More

Note: We did not spend the night here but we did stop in for the afternoon for nostalgia reasons. My mother had worked here 50 years ago and always raved about it so we stopped in for a visit. Richard and his wife were very welcoming and charming, gave us a tour and the run of the place. it is... More

We had a great stay in Sprucewold. Richard is very helpful and friendly. The breakfasts were wonderful. Everything was freshly made and very tasty. A great variety of breakfast foods. The setting is beautiful. Its a great spot for seeing this part of Maine. However the hotel is old; it is of the 1920's era. Its very dark inside due... More

We spent a week at the Sprucewold this past July. Wow! I am almost at a loss for words. Richard and his wife were wonderful hosts. He was very attentive to everyone's needs. He seemed to be available 24/7. I don't know how he does it. Breakfast was outstanding. His staff is small but very good at what they do... More

We just spent 3 days at Sprucewold Lodge. It gives you the feeling of staying in an historic Maine woods lodge while the ocean experience is a minute's drive down the road. This inn is rustically elegant. Simple but immaculate rooms, beautiful public rooms, wonderful big hot breakfasts, peace and quiet -- and two minutes from all the activity of... More

Forty some master gardeners stayed at the Sprucewold lodge and received outstanding hospitality from its owners. There is not a thing that they forgot which made the stay a winner. The owners make every effort to address any need, large or small, of every guest. It is a great value and an intensely charming step into the old world of... More

Don't stay here when you expect to find an all luxurious 5 star hotel room, do stay here when you are looking for a rustic, nice place that has something else to offer, a place that is simply different! The owners are both very nice and friendly people, you can see that they are very proud of this place and... More

The historic Sprucewold Lodge was not only a great bargain, our stay there was a highlight of our trip. We had connecting rooms with a single bathroom. The rooms were basic and comfortable. The lodge's location, in the woods, was quiet and relaxing, but not too far off the beaten path. Sprucewold has a wonderful great room in the lodging... More
