“Clean, well run and good value”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 22 August 2011

We stayed two nights in late June and had a room in the block furthest from the road. The room was spacious, clean and well appointed with lovely hanging baskets outside. The staff were professional and courteous and the inn had a welcome non-corporate feel. The only downside was that the pool was out of order when we were there although the weather was warm enough. Recommended.

“Outstanding”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 23 July 2011

The Inn could not have been nicer. The room was very well maintained and the service was terrific. If you are a bicyclist the owners are very well prepared to assist. This place is 5 Diamond on my rating.

“Well maintained inexpensive motel”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 5 July 2011

We stayed at the Cedar Crest for the 4th of July. This is an older motel but it's very well maintained, the rooms are clean and comfortable, it's well located and the staff is friendly and informative. The only negative is the bathrooms which are undersized.

“A nice enough spot to rest. Nothing fancy. A little outdated. Good Food.”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 12 October 2010
1
person found this review helpful

Stayed solo for two weekend nights in Oct. 2010 to attend a retreat nearby. Easy to find on Route 1 just over the Rockport/Camden border. This seems to be a family run business, not a big hotel chain. They give you a real motel key off a hook. The rooms are in two two-story buildings across the parking lot from the Office/Restaurant.

Peak "leaf peeping" season rate, with 10% AAA discount was $104 for two double beds. Room had high speed internet, cable tv, coffee maker, hair dryer and motel shampoo/soaps. Decor is kind of dated. Somewhere between 1980's country motif and 1950's colonial reproduction. Room was very clean, but it did have a distinct smell that I can only describe as "like grandmas house".

Has an outdoor heated pool, which I did not use. I could hear the people walking about upstairs, which was a minor distraction.

The restaurant is well attended, with plenty of local retirees (which translates to good, unpretentious food for a decent price) along with a few tourists carbing up before hiking nearby Mt. Battie, which you can see from the parking lot. I ate the BEST eggs benedict I have ever ordered. Had pizza and wings with beer for dinner. This little place was hopping on a Saturday night! Not sure how they fit a jazz band in there on Friday nights.

For my neads, I was quite happy with this hotel. Great for families or seniors on a budget. Not recommended for seasoned travelers or the country club crowd.
