Despite officially being referred to as the Pine Tree State, most people affectionately refer to Maine as Vacationland. That’s because each and every nook and cranny is utterly beautiful. Visiting, even if you live here, feels like a vacation. If you’re making a trip to the state for an actual vacation (or live here and want a staycation!) we have the perfect, unique spot to lay your head.
The Norumbega Inn located in Camden dates back to 1886. It was built by Weld-native, Joseph Stearns who drew on inspiration from the castles he saw during his extensive travels through Europe.
