Bed and Breakfast Description

The Dockside is a special place on the Maine seacoast. It captures the essence of Maine, with natural beauty, warmth (even in winter), gracious hospitality and an abundant array of sights, recreation and activities. This unique location on a private peninsula provides an unsurpassed panoramic view of the harbor and Atlantic ocean. Spacious grounds offer privacy, relaxation and classic Maine natural beauty.

Accommodations are in the Maine House, a quintessential "New England Cottage" and modern multi-unit buildings at the water's edge. All rooms in the Maine House enjoy large porches overlooking York Harbor and the Atlantic Ocean. An ideal place to take in the activities of the harbor from your wicker rocking chair. Each of our rooms, in the multi-unit buildings, have a private deck with a view directly out the harbor channel to the ocean.

We offer a delicious breakfast buffet each morning, which can be enjoyed on the front porch overlooking the water, or during the winter, by the crackling fire in the living room. June through October, the Dockside Restaurant serves dinner and lunch in a bi-level dining room that affords every seat a waterview. Local seafood as well a wide variety of other favorites make the Dockside popular with locals and visitors alike.
