Great Breakfast, Lobster Bake and Story Teller.

End of Summer dinner spectacular.

" Thank you so much to everyone at the Newagen who made our wedding weekend so wonderful! We know you do these weddings all the time, but you made us and our family feel very special! You made the whole process easy and all of our guests were blown away by the food, the service, and just how genuinely nice everyone was. "

We stayed in the little inn and it was very spacious for our family.
" We stayed in the little inn and it was very spacious for our family. We loved the deck and being able to walk down off our deck to the pool and view the ocean. Southport Island feels secluded but such a short distance from Boothbay which made it nice for meal options. We loved all the activities throughout the week. It felt very personalized. Very kid friendly. "
an amazing place, so beautiful.
" This is our second time visiting this summer. We fell in love and upon our return felt like part of the Newagen Family. We have travelled in many 5 star hotels including Relais and Chateau and we would rate the Newagen among the best experience....More "
Everything.
" Everything This is our second trip this summer and we are in love with the entire place.
The staff is exceptional, we are always taken care of and treated with grace. You can go to many beautiful resorts and not be treated as well.
We also love the amazing gardens you are lucky to have such a talented
landscape professional.
We loved playing pool and bowling in the old inn.
The food is very good

The people.
" The people. Everyone, and i do mean everyone, is extremely nice. This was our third visit and this time we brought friends. They were slightly set back that there was no TV, (we forgot to mention that) but otherwise the stay was flawless. This is the first time we were with you during the week and we loved the lobster bake. Breakfast is excellent and the restaurant is top notch. I am no marketing genius but your grounds should be featured prominently in any advertising you do. The landscaping is beautiful. Forgive me for not remembering names, especially since I talked to him fairly extensively, twice, but the gentleman in charge of the grounds is awesome. The place is just beautiful. He was so patient to explain to Linda and I what his plan was, is and what it's going to be. Linda revels in telling everyone about our stay there. It's so quaint and juat what she believes a New england Inn should be. Thank you for everything. We will be back. "
The total environment that facilitates and allows "unplugging" , rest and relaxation.
" The total environment that facilitates and allows "unplugging" , rest and relaxation. No matter how many guests are there, there is always a place to "hide" and relax. The gardens are amazing! The entire staff impresses us as loving what they do and it shows in their attitude to serve and engage gladly. We are long time patrons of the Newagen, coming back after a 3 year hiatus. Nothing has changed...room was wonderful, immaculate. Service and amenities wonderful as ever. The staff remains attentive, and knowledgable about local events, directions etc. We had two dinners and both were super. Our old friends Tian and Ricardo were wonderful as ever and was good to catch up with them. "

It was a lovely stay at a traditional .
" It was a lovely stay at a traditional seaside Inn. Love the grounds, seaside view, the facilities, the game room, the staff and the guests. The restaurant menu was decent but I found it incredibly limiting. Food was decent but nothing out of the ordinary. Area seemed very peaceful to get away from all the activity in Boothbay Harbor "
Excellent Inn on the rocky coast of Boothbay Harbor area.
" Excellent Inn on the rocky coast of Boothbay Harbor area. Minutes to Sanford and the town of Boothbay. Excellent breakfast each morning and the morning walks to the adjacent cove were spectacular. Would definitely stay again. "

" Lovely grounds, warm and knowledgeable staff. Great breakfast, and very accommodating rooms with terrace overlooking the pool, gardens, grounds, and water. 20 minutes outside of Boothbay harbor on Southport island. Easy access to beach and good restaurants without going into the crowded town. "

It is all so great it is hard to focus on one thing.
" It is all so great it is hard to focus on one thing. Hum... It is a toss up between the dining room/menu and the grounds. We had a very wonderful, relaxing vacation. The various places to sit and read around the grounds are perfect. The pool is great. And the flowers and gardens are lovely. We had great dinners every night in the dining room and our dining room wait persons were great as was the food. And loved the fresh caught tuna served on the menu the week we were there. "
Newagen is wonderful.
" We stayed at Newagen for a week in July. The grounds/gardens were lovely, the pool was super (heated) and the menu in the dining room was super (there was tuna on the menu caught that week by the chef). "

Gorgeous oceanfront retreat.
" Sunsets, rocky shores, heated pool, and flowers galore make for a lovely peaceful retreat from the hectic city life. Delicious food served in the Inn or by the pool only made our visit more perfect — especially the blueberry cake after the Lobster Bake! "
Southport is Great.

walking down the Sunset Trail, reading the memorial plaque to Rachel Carson, and then sitting quietly.
" The best part of our visit was walking down the Sunset Trail, reading the memorial plaque to Rachel Carson, and then sitting quietly and meditating in the Adirondack chairs. It was special to be right on the rugged Maine coast and being able to feel close to RC and her strength on behalf of the environment. The staff were most accommodating and ready to answer questions - at the desk and in the dining venues. Dinner and breakfast were memorable and delicious. Our time at Newagen was slightly less than 24 hours, and our principal goal was a personal Rachel Carson pilgrimage. We appreciated the books by and about RC available to guests and the Sunset Trail to the memorial plaque. Thank you very much for these tributes to the great "champion of nature." "

The setting and the ‘old barn’ / playhouse .
" Everything was excellent. The staff was very friendly and helpful, the food was great and the site beautiful. "
All good.
" All good. Cheryl? and the young crew from Albania/Kosovo were terrific at breakfast. Enjoyed Tian at the gazebo & bar. Room a little tight but comfortable. Rest of staff universally helpful and nice. Location & grounds outstanding. Ended up eating most dinners at Newagan becuase of high quality and reasonable prices, including the neat lobster bake.

the absolute peacefulness of your location.
" the absolute peacefulness of your location The room was comfortable, and the view from the rooftop balcony was breathtaking.
The grounds were beautiful, and we really enjoyed using the pool.
We hope you are able to retain the chef as his creations were wonderful. His crab cakes were the best we have ever had anywhere!
Every staff member was hospitable, from the moment we checked in, until we left. Among the most personable was bartender Tian, and the gentleman tending the herb garden.
We are happy to recommend Newagen, and will come back again.
Our only suggestion, perhaps oatmeal or another hot cereal as a breakfast choice. "
