Stillwater Hostel

I stayed at Stillwater for 5 nights while on a fall photo excursion and loved the place. It sits up on a hill a couple of hundred yards from the very scenic Narraguagus River, which is bordered by the Sunset hiking trail. I stayed in Room 3 upstairs and was very pleased with the room. It had a nice chair for reading, a spacious closet, and two nice windows to add lots of natural light. Both my room and the shared bathroom across the hall were very clean and uncluttered. Downstairs, the shared kitchen was also extremely clean and well-supplied. There is a Kurig coffee machine available in the kitchen 24/7, a full-sized refrigerator dedicated to use by guests, an extra den for guests to lounge in and watch the large TV, and an extra half-bath downstairs in case the upstairs bath is in use. The owner, Gary, is super nice and pays attention to details to make his guests comfortable. Stillwater is very close to the Schoodic pensula and other very scenic coastal areas that provided excellent photography opportunities. I plan to return with my friends and family to enjoy this beautiful area of Maine.

A good place to stay after along exploring the area , nice quiet and peaceful

This was my first time ever staying at a hostel but the owner seemed nice enough. The house was only 2 minutes from my work in the area, so super convenient. Definitely better than driving 45 minutes back-n-forth to nearest hotel everyday.

Rv is clean and new. And host is very nice.

Great Host and clean property

The facility is nice and clean. The one draw back on the place is that there are no privacy locks on either the bedrooms or washroom and people can by error walk in when occupied.

The room was clean. Gary was a good host and nice to talk to. Our only concern was the shared restroom where we found a men's boxer brief lying on the floor when we arrived in the middle of the night which made my wife feel uncomfortable to use the restroom. We forgot to mention about this to Gary since we were in a rush that day but I believe this post will reach him.

Everything was very nice and clean. Gary was very friendly and met all our needs. Not fancy but was very affordable and was just what we needed.

The very house, setting and host we’re welcoming. But it was overbooked the evening we stayed, had to sleep on a couch when a bed was reserved. Other that that it was all good.
