The years are flying by, but his smile hasn’t changed. ā¤ļø

We’re incredibly honored to share that Five Gables Inn has been named a finalist in Down East Magazine’s 2026 Best of Maine awards in the Hotel or Resort category.

To be recognized alongside so many amazing Maine destinations means a lot to our small team.

Voting officially opens May 12 and runs through June 12. We’ll share details soon, but for now we just wanted to say thank you for supporting an independent inn on the coast of Maine.

Maine is consistently ranked among the best states in the country for scenic drives, with outlets like WalletHub placing it near the top for road trips

And once you make the drive, it is easy to understand why

Leaving the city, the pace begins to change šŸš—
Highways turn into smaller roads
Pine trees line the drive 🌲
And then the ocean starts to appear 🌊

Maine has more than a dozen designated scenic byways, including stretches of Route 1 that wind past rocky coastline, quiet coves, and working harbors

It is not a drive you rush

You slow down
You pull over
You take the long way without thinking twice

By the time you reach the coast, everything feels different

This is what makes Maine special
Not just the destination
But the drive that gets you there

Five Gables Inn sits just beyond in East Boothbay

Beautiful Maine 🌲 ā˜€ļø šŸš—

You leave the city behind
Traffic gives way to open stretches of road
Pine trees line the drive
And every so often, the ocean comes into view

You pass through small towns and working harbors
Boats tied up for the morning
Water flat and quiet
The kind of places you don’t rush through

Windows down
Cool air off the water
That first real feeling of being away

By the time you reach East Boothbay, everything has slowed

It is not just the destination
It is the drive that gets you there
