A truly wonderful place with an exceptional host. The house is a gem - beautifully furnished, spacious, and totally comfortable. Joni left cookie dough for us plus a bottle of wine. The 1830 Guesthouse is near the heart of Bangor in a pleasant neighborhood. We’re so glad to have found it.

We were in town for a concert with friends and this place was perfect! The house is beautifully done and had everything we needed. It was spacious, comfortable and in a quiet neighborhood. We liked how close and convenient it was to shops and the venue. Joni is the perfect host and checked in with us when we arrived and before we left. So thoughtful of her to leave cookie dough to make cookies and also a nice bottle of wine! Would definitely stay here again!

Great Experience!

I stayed here with all my bridesmaids the night before my wedding and got ready here the next morning. It was so clean, welcoming, and very spacious. Joni was so great and easy to communicate with, and even left us homemade cookies and a heartfelt, handwritten note! It’s a beautiful home, I would highly recommend!

Warm welcome on a cold weekend

My family had an important event in downtown Bangor, and we booked this house so that we could all stay together close to the event. The beds were very comfortable, the kitchen beautifully appointed, and the host was very responsive.There were fresh-baked cookies, sparkling water, and a bottle of wine waiting for us when we got there. If we are in the area again, I would totally book here again.

Great Stay, Great Host

The house was amazing, huge and old. I have never stayed in a home that is older than anyone alive on the planet and was still in great shape. The host was also amazing and very welcoming, even hung out with us a couple of nights.

Beautiful and comfortable home!

We stared at the 1820 house while in Bangor for a wedding. We were three couples staying together. Our hostess could not have been kinder, more accommodating or more thoughtful. The house is absolutely charming! The owner has done a spectacular job of preserving and showcasing the antique/historical details of the house, all while providing modern comfort and a relaxing space to stay. Beds were extremely comfortable!
