Savvy travelers looking for gracious accommodations in Downeast Maine know that Peacock House is THE place to stay. Located in the easternmost town in the US, Peacock House was built by a ship captain in 1860 and and has been a Bed and Breakfast since 1989. The inn has seven well-appointed suites (with king beds) and standard-sized rooms (with queen beds), each with a private bath. There are also four common rooms on the first floor where you can mingle with other guests or find a more quiet place to relax. The outdoor deck is also a welcoming space for our guests to enjoy. The inn is conveniently located with four blocks of shops and restaurants. You'll be greeted each morning by wafts of a delectable breakfast mingled with the aroma of locally roasted coffee. Savor a breakfast that's created to please both the eye and palate. We enjoy providing foods that are locally sourced, including our signature Downeast turkey sausage, made right here at the inn. Experience the rugged coast of the Bay of Fundy with its dramatic 20 foot tides, explore renowned hiking trails, and visit nearby beaches and lighthouses. Whales, seals, bald eagles and Atlantic puffins are among our local summer residents. Campobello Island, the summer home of Franklin Roosevelt is less than three miles from the inn. Lubec is also the home of Summer Keys, an adult music and arts program. Come to Lubec to escape the hustle and stress of life and and to experience "Maine as it used to be" in this authentic fishing village. Visit Peacock House and experience why tripadvisor reviewers have given it the highest quality ratings in the area. You'll be glad you did.

My wife and I stayed at the Peacock House this past weekend. The bed and breakfast experience was wonderful. Class, elegance, and simplicity all at the same time. The owners are friendly and attentive....while giving guests their "space" at the same time. They were a wealth of information about the Lubec area. The breakfast was delicious. If you are staying in the Washington County, Maine area.....definitely consider staying here. In fact, I can't wait to go back :)

We thoroughly enjoyed our two night visit at Peacock House. The room was very comfortable and clean, the breakfasts were delicious. Mary Beth had some excellent suggestions for places to eat as well as our visit to Campobello Island. It was a delightful visit and we heartily recommend Peacock House.

Can't say enough great things about the Peacock House Bed & Breakfast! As one review said, it's a 15 out of 10. Mary Beth and Jim were extremely welcoming and kind. The room, along with the entire home, was spotless and comfortable. The only problem we had is that we didn't stay an additional night!

My wife & I really enjoyed out stay at the Peacock House B&B. Mary Beth and Jim are extremely friendly hosts, knowledgeable on the area and very accommodating. Breakfasts were simply delicious and a real treat every morning. Rooms and beds were comfortable too. This is certainly a spot we would highly recommend. Lubec still feels like Maine as I remember it from coming to visit as a child many moons ago.

I hope everyone reading this review will visit this lovely B and B that is a kind invitation to an exceptional part of the world. The hosts do the impossible. They are friendly but unobtrusive. If you choose to engage them in conversation, they are witty and intelligent. They pay attention to every minute detail of your experience and make sure it is exceptional. My husband and I only had a few days to explore this lovely area of Maine and have many more adventures in the future. However, one detail is clear. We will always rely on the exceptional hospitality we received at the Peacock House whenever we return.

So much to like about Mary Beth, Jim and Peacock House. Top of our list - the carefully prepared, delectable breakfasts. We chose the Summer Room with pretty views of the water and the bridge of Campobello. The bed was super comfortable. Water pressure and temperature in the shower were ideal. The gardens are gorgeous. The inn was spotless, as others have commented. We are glad we chose Peacock House!

Accommodations were wonderful, and Mary Beth and Jim were fantastic hosts! The house is spotless, comfortable and surrounded by a well-kept yard/garden. Be sure to ask about local things to do. It made the visit to Lubec even more special.

From the host/owners to the room to the breakfasts, Peacock House B+B excelled. I felt as if I was living in someone’s very clean + comfortable inn. People come here year after year. I know this because of what other guests said + because so many guests were engrossed in conversations with our hosts - Jim + Marybeth. Kudos to both of them for offering a home-away-from home in a beautiful building in a wonderful city.
