Bed and Breakfast Description

Constructed in 1854 by Elijah Glover, a prominent local shipbuilder and lumberman, the Windward House is one of the finest examples of Victorian architecture with Greek revival features along the mid-coast of Maine. This stately home opened its doors to guests in 1924 and throughout the years has been lovingly restored to its original graciousness and beauty.

Our guests enjoy several common areas. The living room with its original soapstone fireplace welcomes guests while the cozy library with a quiet reading area is filled with books and games for all to enjoy. Afternoons bring tea and popovers in the beautiful gardens with Mt. Battie as the backdrop to a picturesque afternoon.
