Guest Reviews
- Guest (4/5): Hotel was far from activities, parking inconvenient, uncomfortable bed - Liked size of room Front steps are dangerous No breakfast Mattress was horrible
- Guest (9/5): -
- Robert (10/5): - The room was clean and beautiful, overlooking the white mountains. I guess I didn't read the fine print because we were expecting some dining option. Sylvesters for dinner and the Market for breakfast were not far away. The coffee/beverage bar in the lounge is extraordinary. Would've appreciated some cleaning attention to the windows and screens so we could've taken full advantage of the view. I know that upkeep of the place must be all-comsuming. The host was quite welcoming and attentive. We would definitely go back. The building and furnishings are fascinating.
- Debra (7/5): It was comfortable and a very convenient place to be for the Fryeburg Fair. - The location is beautiful. There was no breakfast because they had kitchen problems. The Center Lovell Market was only a couple of miles down the road, and they had excellent food for a reasonable price. A better light in the bathroom.
- douglas (4/5): Not returning because of the above dislikes. - three years running we have occupied the Inn .No hot b fast but you dont know untill you cant cancel reservations...then they tell you. bed was very squeaky and uncomfortable in the last room we stayed in. B fast and Bistro is advertised...never happens.
- Pike (8/5): - Told us at the last minute we could still have coffee but no breakfast like we paid for. Blamed it on a "kitchen repair problem."
- Cathy (2/5): - There was zero communication from the facility. No confirmation, no text updates. No one answered the phone, no answering machine either. I wasn’t shown around when I arrived rather the owner briefly went thru their “book” and left. I referred to the “book” for breakfast times however no one ever offered or served a breakfast. The pictures on website are wayyyy outdated. The property needs alot of TLC. Interior needs an extreme deep cleaning. It smells really dirty. Not impressed at all. Actually very disappointed as I only frequent bed & breakfasts due to typically cleaner and more personal & friendly experience. I would not recommend this place.
- Olivia (10/5): - Lovely inn! Great place to stay when exploring Lovell and the surrounding area. Looking forward to hearing that Rose is cooking again! Would absolutely return.
- Jason (8/5): -
- Deborah (6/5): - rose was very nice - property is a diamond in the rough / a tired property with a nice view. there is no breakfast or restaurant available on property as stated online
- Emily (4/5): - They didn’t have breakfast Cleanliness and smell
- Melissa (5/5): Nice owner and wish her all the best. - Good location, beautiful mountain view and gardens. Interior needs some tlc, but it is an older, historic inn. No breakfast was available.
- John (10/5): - Rose was an excellent host ready to help when I needed it. The inn is lovely and they offer lots of amenities. My room was clean and very comfortable, I would stay again if in the area.
- Banks-Lubicz (10/5): - There was no breakfast, but the coffee was excellent.
- Claire (8/5): Views - Stunning views
- James (10/5): A bit out of the way, but worth the drive. - Quaint, nicely appointed, clean. Enjoyed the feel of a nice B&B that was cared for by a proud owner.
- Valerie (7/5): Nice getaway to enjoy fall scenery - Very clean & staff very friendly I was hoping to have full hot breakfast. Previous reviews raved about the delicious breakfast for extra charge of $15 which I gladly would have paid. A little disappointed but continental breakfast was very nice, lots to choose from.
- Carlow (8/5): Very good -
- Keith (4/5): Be aware there is no restaurant at the property and will not be for the foreseeable future. Were advised by email but no - Good location. Good owner Uncomfortable bed,cold room and shower difficult to control
- Patricia (8/5): - Was disappointed that there was no offering for full breakfast and dinner as advertised. It is quite out of the way and quite a ways away from restaurants in Fryeburg !!!
- Rita (10/5): Exceptional - Cute quintessential New England B&B!! Rose the proprietor met us at the door welcoming us and showed us common areas we could use along with bringing us to our room. A stunningly decorated king room with a sitting area and private bathroom. The bed was very comfortable! The detail to every possible need during our stay was met! Refrigerator, toiletries,wifi, and the most cushy soft towels in the bathroom!! 3-4 others stayed the night and there was no noise! We appreciated the peacefulness ! We asked for suggestions for a close by restaurant for dinner. Ebenezer's was suggested and was Amazing! A hot New England breakfast was served in the morning! Delicious ❤️ Really nothing!
- Jessica (9/5): Superb -
- L1600MTaudreyw (10/5): Home Away From Home --- But Better!! - Our family had the tremendous pleasure of staying here. Some may come for the spacious & uniquely decorated rooms, the manicured grounds (w/flowers, fruit trees & fountains!), or the mountain views. We highly recommend staying for the warm hospitality of Rose & Prince, and the delicious breakfasts made w/love. Every detail impeccable. It's an unparalleled B&B experience you will rave about too!
- T2517XKsusany (10/5): Oasis in western Maine - A great welcome from the beginning from innkeeper Rose Adams. The grounds are lovely with fountains and flowers everywhere. Inside, the inn is brimming with art and antiques. The breakfast was unreal! Each plate a work of art, adorned with fresh fruit. We had a beautiful room looking out at the mountains. Even the towels were perfect. We will be back!
- Chloe (8/5): - Aging facility, bathroom was not great, room wasn’t ready at check in time. Grounds are beautiful.
- Karen (8/5): Very good -
- Jason (10/5): Exceptional - Breakfast was amazing! Fresh and made to order.
- Mary (10/5): - A charming old (1805) inn with gorgeous views of the White mountains. Our Host was very attentive and breakfast was delicious.
- N8698RXchristians (10/5): Great Cozy place to relax - Second time we’ve stayed at the Center Lovell Inn. July 2023 was the last. Rose is an amazing host and chef! Her breakfasts never disappoint!!! We stayed at the Prince Room. Beautifully decorated and extremely comfortable king bed with a private bath Spacious and well appointed! We don’t stay at night but the garden is quite lovely too. Highly recommend!!! C
- Thordis (10/5): Exceptional - Outstanding in every way. Cozy, clean and comfortable and best breakfast you will ever have. Absolutely perfect 3 night stay. I will be back !!
- Steve (10/5): - Rose was great and accommodating to us. Communication was great so if we needed to adjust the room temperature she was on it right away. The room was spacious and the bed was quite comfortable! Unfortunately we were up and out too early to have breakfast, but I have read great things about it! Overall, it was a peaceful stay and we had a great time in Maine.
- Nick (9/5): A newly discovered gem. - It is a beautiful, private inn. Walking out the front door to a view of the mountains! The artwork hanging throughout is fantastic. Our host was very accommodating and personable. We came at the wrong time of year to enjoy the backyard area. It looked very nice and relaxing. We'll have to come back again in the Spring or Fall!
- Laurie (9/5): Superb - Beautiful setting with a delicious breakfast. We enjoyed the hosts too!
- Debra (10/5): Need to stay here again!!!! - The stay was great, only one night, room very comfortable. Inn is exactly what they say on their website. The owners were very accommodating and provided a quick tour before I headed to my room. In the morning the views from my room were fabulous. The breakfast was exceptional. I’m sure in late summer/ fall the outdoor space would be very welcoming but I stayed mid November and it was a bit chilly.
- Dirk (10/5): just beautiful - Fantastic location , amazing old style house and breakfast just gorgous, we would like to come again all was fine
- Kara (10/5): Our stay was beautiful. The room was so clean and comfy, with beautiful amenities and the breakfast was easily 5 star - Beautiful property with fountains and views for miles! Na
- Laura (6/5): - Rose was a lovely host and a fantastic chef. Our breakfast was amazing. However, the house is old with heating controls outside of our room that controls the whole floor. The decor was questionable and not appropriate with naked women at in the bedroom and the dining room. Not our cup of tea. There was a Bambi weaved rug in our room that was very inconvenient for luggage and not comfortable to walk on I tried to take a picture of the sunset and the windows were too dirty to get a picture. It advertised that dinner was available but it was not and restaurants are at least 20 min. Away. The home is isolated in a small town with no amenities. We would not stay there again unfortunately because we really liked Rose.
- Smith (8/5): Very good - Rose makes the trip. Great personality and I can't say enough about the Breakfast. This is a Bed and Breakfast and it is an old historic home. If you are handicapped in any way you should discuss your needs ip front. Not all of the facility is handicap ready.
- Paula (10/5): Beautiful stay in a beautiful Inn. - It was beautiful and well decorated. Rose was wonderful. The breakfast was amazing. Wish we could had dinner there too but found a fun place about 10 min. away for dinner.
- Emily (5/5): Beautiful old inn desperately needs help. - Location to fair. Coffee station available and well stocked. Nice breakfast Not what the website stated. No dinners available. Room small and crowded . No air conditioning . Light in bathroom on a pull chain i couldn't reach. Poor ventilation. Way too much furniture in such a small room. Shower was difficult to use. Grounds looked neglected, bird feeders even empty. Felt like the place was closing. The final disappointment was when i saw the tip request envelope for housekeeping with the name of the inn keeper on It. Never had an inn keeper request a tip before. To top it off our room wasnt serviced despite the welcome book that said it would be. We were there 3 nights left with overflowing trash cans.
- Susan (1/5): Unreasonable and unresponsive facility staff. Would never book there again! - Nothing Everything
- David (10/5): A Very Pleasant Stay - We thoroughly enjoyed our two-day stay at the historic inn. And Rose is an outstanding chef. The breakfasts were especially a delight for us and the other couple traveling with us.
- Vickie (10/5): Exceptional -
- Todd (10/5): - This B&B is a delight and I hope to visit again. The room was well-appointed and clean. In particular, the bathroom was well-stocked with complimentary items, better than some major hotels I've stayed at. The manager greeted me and showed me to my room when I checked in, and provided keys to the room and front door. The door locks are somewhat troublesome to use. The bed was amazing. I do regret I couldn't accommodate their limited breakfast hours because I bet it was delicious. The property is well-kept and quite scenic. I would have loved to sit in the garden with a glass of wine, but I was only in the area for the night before continuing my travels. If you're in the area to visit Ebenzer's, this is the best place to stay, hands down. Rose is running a gem of a bed and breakfast.
- Jessica (10/5): Rose accommodated my late check-in & check-out times. Enjoyed a intimate breakfast:) - Cozy, quiet and comfy!
- stephanie (10/5): - The Center Lovell Inn is so lovely! We only stayed for one night but I wish it were more. The room was comfortable and absolutely charming. It had everything we needed. The main Inn building was also very comfortable and homie. Breakfast was INCREDIBLE. Gardens on the grounds are outstanding and there is a gorgeous lit up outdoor area that would be wonderful day or night.
- Michael (9/5): Superb -
- Wendy (10/5): - Our host Rose was very accommodating. Our homemade breakfast was A . We hope our travels take us back to the area as we would definitely stay here again.
- Emilie (9/5): Superb -
- Craig (9/5): Superb -
- Christian (10/5): Perfect for our needs - Rose the owner was wonderful and made amazingly delicious breakfast!
- Maureen (10/5): Exceptional -
- Donna (10/5): - Rose is a wonderful host. Superb cook. Bountiful breakfast served in a quaint historic home
- 867es (10/5): Beautiful, charming, comfortable, nice views and SCRUMPTIOUS food! - A thoroughly enjoyable experience! This is a lovely inn, with beautiful touches, cozy places to sit and many conveniences. The yard is serenity itself, with plantings and a gurgling fountain. Sip coffee on the porch, take in the mountain views & enjoy the honor bar. Rose's Room has a comfy bed, gorgeous wallpaper and a large round mirror. Rose is friendly, helpful and hospitable -- and she makes exquisite gourmet breakfasts! I only wish the restaurant had been open for dinner; next time...
- 185zacc (10/5): Wedding trip - We stayed for two nights for a friend’s wedding nearby. Rose was a great host and the hotel is incredibly cozy, which was important for those cold winter days. The breakfasts were also amazing, including some of the best eggs I’ve ever had. We were lucky to be some of the few guests that weekend. The parking lot was icy, which made it a bit difficult to navigate, but that was all too uncommon around town at the time.
- Mark (1/5): As per the other one point review in August 22 our stay was awful. Do not stay! - The only good thing was the bedding and extras in the bedroom. The beds themselves were adequate. We arrived and we thought the inn had closed. We got to the porch and it was full of old tables, cardboard boxes etc. the front door was locked but eventually opened by a harried Rose - who immediately asked for more money for breakfast (we had pre paid). The kids and I wanted to leave but we paid top dollar for our stay and there was not much else around. Ironically, to add to the horror film feeling there was a large thunderstorm that night - couldn’t have made it up! Rose eventually texted us that she wouldn’t charge extra for breakfast. Breakfast was a shame as she seemed to use a garlic infused chopping board so all the fruit tasted of garlic. The restaurant was closed and I found reviews saying it had been shut for 2 years - which made sense of the room piled with stuff. Rose was not chatty but rude and full of angst. It felt like something had gone majorly wrong, was meant to be closed but forgotten to cancel us or something.
- Wyatt (10/5): Exceptional -
- Sandra (10/5): - Since this was our first trip to Maine we got the overall feeling of how unique Maine is with the land, lakes and architecture. The Inn of Lovell gave us that natural experience. Our only negative would be when we came down for breakfast each day we would have liked some heat. We wore our coats to have an absolutely delicious meal. Rose was wonderful and a gracious hostess/owner. Hopefully, we will return soon.
- Zohar (5/5): Passable -
- Paul (10/5): Exceptional -
- Thomas (7/5): Provided a good place to get away for a couple of days - Food was outstanding and Rose definitely was comfortable, knowledgeable, and professional in the kitchen Chilly in dining area, coffee could have been warmer.
- Alvin (10/5): Just a wonderful experience - Rose is great host and cook.Her breakfasts where excellent and very creative we would stay at this location again. We where in Lovell for the Fryberg fair and the location was perfect. Wish the restaurant was open but it closed when we were there
- rebeccabX3643IQ (2/5): Terrible place, feels like it is closing down - We arrived peak season (August). As we drove up we thought the place must have shut. We got to the porch door and all the tables were stacked up, chairs no boxes too - we were sure it was closed. The front door was locked but after ringing the bell a very confused seeming Rose opened the door. We were told prices had gone up so we would have to pay extra - she later changed her mind on this. The place had the feel of the Bates motel - I had to leave the shower curtain open! There was no restaurant, we were told it had been shut a while but this was not advertised anywhere. Breakfast was disappointing in the main because it all tasted of garlic, like the fruit had been chopped on a garlic chopping board - inedible. Despite hotels.com saying it was full we were the only guests. I couldn’t wait to leave. What was so confusing was that all the reviews raved bout the place and Rose in particular. Rose seemed very chaotic, poor at communicating and slightly manic - I fear something had gone wrong. All that said although the bathroom was very old no tires the bedrooms were clean and fresh.
- Debra (10/5): We enjoyed our stay and would stay again - The breakfast was excellent, better than a restaurant any day! The room was comfortable and the area was lovely. Nothing
- Chad (10/5): Center Lovell Inn & Restaurant is awesome! - Everything was great and we would definitely go back :-)
- Kelly (9/5): Superb - Rose was so kind and a wonderful chef. I looked forward to seeing what magical breakfast she would make us each day. Location was perfect!
- Gregory (1/5): Property needs new management and should not be opened. - Nothing! Cardboard boxes and furniture on the front porch, the dining room tables were askew, the room was dingy and kind of scary! The pictures from the website were totally misleading. My wife and I left the property in about five minutes and found a real, legitimate B&B in Fryeburg, Maine (The Oxford House). Everything! Nothing described on the website was accurate. The facility was run down, not well-maintained. "fine-dining" non-existent, upcharge for breakfast and trash all over the front porch. My wife and I were horrified so we left and stayed at another B&B. Basically, the owner of this B&B was falsely advertising her property and I hope this review helps others who are thinking about renting here. We heard from people in the community that this property was once thriving but in recent years it has really gone downhill. This is a classic example of false advertising and, in my opinion, the owner should not be renting the property.
- Susannah (8/5): Very good - Air conditioner lacking
- Ambra (10/5): - Excellent host food and accommodations.
- Claudine (10/5): - The owner Rose is so personable and welcoming . We needed to check in a little early to prepare for a wedding we were attending. She had the room ready when we arrived. She was still walking the grounds when we returned from the wedding and asked about the wedding . At 7:45 am she served us an amazing breakfast .
- Jon2101 (10/5): Charming, comfortable Inn. - We stopped by the Center Lovell Inn while on a motorcycle trip through Maine. What a wonderful spot! It’s an old house built in 1805, with all the charm of 19th architecture combined with modern amenities. We stayed in Prince’s room, with an amazing view of the Presidential Mountain range. The owners are just fantastic and went above and beyond to make us feel welcome and comfortable. If you find yourself in western Maine I highly recommend the Center Lovell Inn.
- Mary (10/5): - Lovely setting beautiful view amazing breakfast
- mainecoasters (10/5): Great Stay - Our two bedroom suite was warm, comfortable and perfect for an overnight for our family of five. Two bedrooms, a full bath, and a small bonus room with TV and electric fireplace were a good deal, especially when you include the incredible breakfast.
- Howard (10/5): Cozy Country Inn - The Inn was charming, cozy and comfortable! We wished we could have arrived earlier to hike locally. Homemade breakfast was included! Yum!
- James (10/5): Excellent - We had a wonderful stay here! The inn is comfortable, inviting, and clean. The service was friendly and professional. Breakfast was delicious and they even accommodated our one-year-old with a high chair. Our room had everything we needed and was so lovely. The area is beautiful and so peaceful. We highly recommend and hope to be back soon.
- DallasDi (10/5): Quaint and comfy - What a quaint place to stay. The rooms are clean and roomy and Rose is a treat. The breakfast was incredible and we loved the location and the grounds. We were there in the height of the fall color and the location, while remote, was easily to get to and right on our way.
- Benjamin (10/5): - Remarkable hostess!!
- Ann (8/5): - It was an older property with a lot of charm. The room was tastefully done. Very pretty! Very clean. The breakfast was wonderful both days! The hostess was very nice. I would recommend it.
- Mamakoz23 (10/5): Great hospitality - My husband and Mother and I stayed in the two bedroom suite for a night en route to Stowe VT. I AM SO GLAD WE STAYED HERE!!! The beds and pillows were comfy and the decor is a modern touch combined with classic pieces. Rose is an amazing woman and has mastered the art of hospitality in this cozy country in she runs with her husband. Breakfast was an amazing French toast with cardamom reduction on fresh fruit with candied pecans. I wish we could have stayed longer. I highly recommend this inn. And the view is to die for.
- Verified traveler (10/5): Center Lovell Inn - Room and bathrooms were very clean and the breakfasts were fantastic.
- Sue (10/5): - Quaint New England Inn. Room beautiful and comfortable. Breakfast excellent highly recommended.
- rldjcs (10/5): Absolutely Fantastic Stay at Center Lovell Inn! - My two boys (16 & 18) and I just enjoyed 5 days of wonderful hospitality with Rose and Prince at the Center Lovell Inn. We had been renting the same house just down the road from here every summer since they were toddlers but this year the owners had retired & moved to Maine for the summer, so it was no longer an option. So, we finally had a chance to stay at this historic inn, and what a bonus that turned out to be!! They have made some beautiful interior updates, retaining charming New England decor while simultaneously mixing in more updated furnishings and luxurious touches - really lovely. Rose is an incredible cook - breakfast (included) was a true pleasure and very generous. Coffee/tea and cookies available all day, and best of all, this family really knows the hospitality business, and I really enjoyed our conversations. As always, Kezar Lake and surroundings are a beautiful setting and staying at the Inn puts you in a fantastic location from which to enjoy it all. Try the Center Lovell Inn - you won't regret it!!
- taolin33 (10/5): Second yearly visit, hoping to make this a tradition--great inn! - For the 2nd year in a row, I brought my wife and mom for a stay in this fine inn. We admire the innkeepers grace, warmth, and hardwork improving the inn [which is already full of character and a fine place to stay in our estimation.) Breakfast, again, is yummy; this year, we ate out on the porch, with a great view of the white mountains... I wanted to treat my mom to the nicest place I could find in the area while visiting with our children at a local camp; I consider the price a fine value, and am comfortable recommending the inn to families, couples on a romantic weekend, or anyone who has reason to come to the area.
- D (8/5): - Great location, especially if one is planning on going to the Fryeburg Fair. Also, we have family nearby on the Five Kezars so this location is quite convenient when visiting them.
- colinp679 (8/5): Amazing location. Very Friendly Hosts. - My wife and I stayed in the Center Lovell Inn in October. We were blown away by the location and the property. The hosts were very friendly and the breakfast was very hearty and with a lot of care taken. Our room was very comfortable and the bed was cozy. It was very peaceful and quite. The only draw back with the room were the blinds. If they were open people could see in and when closed it was too dark. Our only disappointment was that we were expecting to have an evening meal at the hotel after reading the information on the website .We were looking forward to relaxing after a long journey only to find that they weren't serving meals and with no explanation why.
- Verified traveler (8/5): - Everything was excellent! The breakfeast was great! Our room was on the street side, and unfortunately we found the traffic very noisy.
- Lisa (10/5): - Lovely place and amazing hosts. Rose is a wonderful person, a great cook.
- B1916OCsarab (10/5): Just Amazing!! - Our stay was so pleasant!! Greeted from the moment we got there. We were shown our room which was quaint and clean. Breakfast was AMAZING, served banana pancakes with fresh fruit, sausage with coffee orange juice and water. The people who own this place are so nice, polite, and welcoming. We will definitely go back in the future!!
- Susan (4/5): - Our room was miserable. It smelled like mold and was very drafty, the floor was so sloping it was hard to walk. The bathroom was filthy. Black hairs and dirt all over the floor. The bed was not a queen (as advertised) but a full and hard as a rock. The only saving grace was the breakfast it was wonderful. Please review this property before renting it to others.
- Verified traveler (10/5): - Excellent service and amazing breakfasts in this charming Inn. Rose and Prince made my weekend feel like a quick vacation with family. My only suggestion would be a wifi booster! It would be nice to be able to have cell phone coverage but short of that internet is helpful. Beautiful setting and charming atmosphere. Will stay again if I’m in the area!
- Julieta (10/5): Good and comfy - Overall great excep there is no internet access in the rooms.
- Michael (2/5): NOT HAPPY - VERY DISAPPOINTED after flying all night driving all day just want to relax and watch a little tv but NO TV in my ROOM couldn't even stand up fulling in room. Will NEVER Return. In fact LEAVING EARLY cant stand one more night.
- Verified traveler (10/5): - Easy check in, wonderful hosts. Highly recommend.
- Christine (10/5): Center Lovell Inn: A great place to relax - Our first trip to Maine led us to the Center Lovell Inn and we were so pleased that this is where we spent five totally relaxing days. We stayed in the cottage adjoining the Inn with a private bathroom, Everything was very clean, small refrig in the room, and comfortable bed and pillows. Rose is a wonderful host and we enjoyed visiting with her during our stay. Her breakfasts were wonderful, colorful and delicious. It was a pleasure to go to the dining room each morning to see and taste what she had prepared. We especially enjoyed the banana pancakes topped with fresh, local strawberries, raspberries, and blueberries. An omelet with fried potatoes, sausage that had a maple flavor, and fresh fruit was wonderful. Five days there and five wonderful breakfasts. A hiking trail is close by that gives a wonderful view of the New Hampshire mountains. We stopped at the local historical museum down the road which was a gem and gave us much appreciation of those who settled the area. The antique store across the street was open on the weekends and very reasonable. We enjoyed traveling the roads and the beautiful scenery of woods, lakes and mountains. We also drove about 75 minutes into Portland for a day of sightseeing. I would love to come back and enjoy the peace and quiet of this natural setting again. We really appreciated the hospitality that Rose demonstrated. It was like we were staying in someone's home and we were!!
- AnnB94 (10/5): Lovely Inn with wonderful views - The couple that own the Inn were both very nice and accommodating. It was quiet with lots of hiking trails nearby. There are little towns one can visit for shopping, lakes and rivers for kayaking, or just sit in teh yard and read.
- taolin33 (10/5): yummy breakfast; an inn--and owners--with admirable character - Lovell Center Inn is owned by a charming, talented, hardworking couple. The Inn has plenty of character; I gather that it is slowly and carefully being renovated. Rose, one of the owners and a skilled chef, prepared high quality breafkasts, and I suspect dinner would be great also. View across to mountains and the nice background music inside on the first floor gave this place a chill vibe inside and out. I did a nice walk right in Center Lovell early one morning...highly recommended.
- Verified traveler (8/5): - Really nice in keepers. Breakfast is delicious. Charming, very clean Inn.
- Ashish (2/5): - The room was not comfortable at all and each time a car passed from nearby road it would wake us up because of the noise. Also we were not informed we had to share a bathroom at the time of booking. This was not acceptable at all. Only savior was the breakfast which was nice and served hot. Definitely not worth 130 bucks i paid for 1 night
- Candyaltman (10/5): Fantastic Food, Great Hospitality - We just had a fabulous meal at the Center Lovell Inn! From the goat cheese and beet salad( so much more to it than that) to the amazing pork tenderloin to the outstanding maple creme brûlée and chocolate mouse with sea salt-everything was delicious. We have been guests at the inn for many years and we are thrilled that Rose and Prince are creating their own extra special dining experience for their guests. A must if you're in the area.
- Scot (6/5): Close to the Fryberg fair - Wasn't aware from website registration that bathroom was shared with another room. No TV, no cell coverage, WiFi in main lodge only. Our building needs major renovation of loose & crumbling plaster. Out of code extension cords running fan & refrigerator.
