Hotel
The Poland Spring Resort is about a 15 minute drive to the venue, and has reasonable rates. They don't offer room blocks, but this is our recommendation unless you would rather stay in the Portland area. They have both traditional rooms and cottages for larger groups. They also have a golf course, tennis and pickleball courts, a pool, a restaurant, and many other activity options on site!
Hotel
If you have a group of up to 6, you can consider The Old Bell Tavern in New Gloucester. A beautifully restored post and beam house from 1773, it used to be a popular stopping place on an old stage coach route! It's just a stone's throw away from both venues.
Hotel
Bliss Farm Inn is a B&B located in Durham which is about 16 minutes from our wedding venue. Durham is also convenient to lovely local spots like Bradbury Mountain State Park, The Desert of Maine, and the cute coastal cities of Freeport and Brunswick.
Hotel
This hotel is on the Westbrook/Portland line and is convenient to the highway and about a 15 minute drive to Downtown Portland.
