Historic Property

Originally built in the 1820s, The Squire Tarbox Inn was carefully restored in 2018. What was once a coastal carriage house is now our one-of-a-kind event barn, providing a unique and welcoming setting that’s etched with history. The property’s lush greenery, heritage woods, and sparkling salt marsh act as a brilliant backdrop for any kind of event.

If you are looking for a magical place in ME, isolated enough to feel like you have complete privacy, but close enough to everything, you must visit the Squire Tarbox Inn. This beautifully restored 1763 farmhouse is a dream. The rooms are all meticulously renovated to have all the modern comforts with a laid back feel. And as a bonus, they have goats, chickens and a trail that takes you down to the most peaceful salt marsh.
