Camden, ME

Before saying goodbye to Maine, we wanted to make a stop in Camden. Doug's cousins, Bill and Marilyn Reardon and their children, had owned a bed and breakfast in Camden called the High Tide Inn. We had never been there, so thought we should at least stop and see if it was still there while we were 'in the neighborhood'. It is there, and looking fine. It's a big place--the inn, a motel, some cottages, and another multi-room building by the water.

The current proprietor, a delightful lady named Jo, showed us around and talked about how special the Reardon family is to her too. If you're ever in the area, it would be a great place to stay. She also showed us her kitchen, which is a screened porch off the main house. It is a lovely place. I can see why the Reardons love it!
