Very comfortable and peaceful. The hosts are super great, friendly and awesome cooks. The home is beautiful and homey. Just a short hop from lots of heat antique and thrift shops.

We attended a wedding about 30 minutes north which worked out great for our schedule. We had a lovely conversation with the owners in the morning and they made an amazing breakfast. Their B&B is lovely. The bed was very comfortable and it felt like we were staying with family. We had a wonderful stay. We don't travel to Maine too often, but if we have another special occasion in the area, we'll definitely stay at The Perkins House.

It was a totally amazing spot. All decorated for Halloween. My sister and I thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The breakfast was superb. We enjoyed visiting with the guests at the breakfast table. We have already booked for another stay in November. Keith and Gretchen, the owners, were very accommodating and delightful!

The location was perfect for us. We like to wander the Cornish area, but it is also very convenient to get to Portland or the mountains in New Hampshire. The owners are very accessible for suggestions or assistance. The breakfast meals were excellent. Will definitely stay again.

Verified review

8/10 Very good

The historic setting of the Perkins house was very fun to learn about—it has a unique history and the owners preserved it’s originality. It was decorated to the extreme with antiques and knickknacks which made it feel a bit cluttered and our bedroom was so full of things that there was not much room left to lay out our things. But the breakfast provided was delicious each morning and was very satisfying.

Delightful getaway

The room was very comfortable, quiet and clean. There is a shared bathroom for the floor, which was fine for us since only one other room was occupied. (I don’t know how that goes when the inn is full.) We did not take advantage of any of the other common areas (living room w/TV, sitting room). The entire house is beautifully decorated in the Victorian style, with lots of furniture, busy wallpaper, and decorative items on the shelves, dressers and side tables. It looked great, but I was afraid to put any of my own things on the dresser because I thought I might overlook them amidst all the other items when it came time to leave. Our host was very helpful and accommodating. Breakfast far surpassed our expectations. I would certainly stay there again.

This place is just amazing. It’s so cozy and welcoming. Gretchen and Keith are wonderful and just the sweetest couple. We can’t wait to come back for another adventure and hang out with Dulce again. Breakfast was to die for. I wish I’d had room to eat it all.

10/10 Exceptional

What a beautiful house! The owners, Keith and Gretchen were so welcoming, as was their little dog Dolce. We loved how casual it was, the yummy breakfast (thank you, Keith) and the overall experience. Located in Cornish, Maine, it is walking distance to two restaurants (check out Krista's), and is just a few minutes from Hiram fair grounds. There is also a 9-hole disc golf course in Cornish, also walking distance from the house. It is located in someone's backyard, but was fun! The decks at the house have lots of chairs for relaxing, we really loved the rocking chairs! We totally recommend the Perkins house!
