Took a quick trip up to Maine from NJ in our van which we love to use for camping though we also enjoy the Conveniences of proper lodging. The hassle of Maine was perfect and provided everything we loved in our experience. We got to enjoy sleeping in the van while having our electric heater hooked up to keep the temps reasonable. We also had a super nice place to chill inside, use of the bathrooms and shower downstairs really completely the stay. Everyone is super friendly so it felt like you were visiting family in the mountains who got up every morning and prepared breakfast for the guests. Love it!! Can’t wait to go back

I had a great stay and regret it only being one night. The price was very fair for a private room and it being Leaf Peeping season. Breakfast was great. Staff was friendly and helpful. Lots of resources in terms of a little general store and food to purchase. I highly recommend staying here or going out of your way a bit to stay here.

Everything about this stunning log home is welcoming and organized, with very nice decor. Both the bedrooms and the dining/living room common areas are beautiful. We were just passing through with our dog, and it was interesting to talk to some of the Appalachian trail hikers. I was told that the trail is steep in that area, so we found a lovely riverside trail across the main road.

Best banana bread EVER! Beautiful log cabin, clean rooms, great customer service. I went in June 2023 and I am returning July 2023. This place just feels like home away from home

I've stayed here 4 times so far and it's really a great spot. The bunk rooms are bunk rooms, the can get a little cramped but the beds are a good size and they're comfortable. Only 1 pillow though! Bring a back up if you need more. The private rooms are nice and conforms too. The attendants have been available and friendly in my experience. Will be staying here again!

Hostel Maine is a great gem at the foot of Sugarloaf. Beautiful clean rooms, wonderful customer service, and a great location. I will definitely stay here next time.

I stumbled upon this place after a great day at the loaf and I enjoyed it so much I came back weekly for the rest of the season. Incredible proximity to the mountain, incredible value, and an incredible innkeeper in Alex. Will definitely be back next year and recommend you do the same.

Such an amazing stay! The hostel is clean, cozy and so welcoming. All staff were kind and helpful. The homemade muffins for breakfast were delicious! We’ll definitely be back.

I have spent time at HOME two times during March skiing vacations with the experiences in both the bunk rooms and the single bed room being pleasant and comfortable. This is a high end hostel, more like a lodge experience, yet the rate for the single traveler in the bunk room is the best value that I have found anywhere. The large common and dining rooms are very conducive to socializing and the staff friendly and welcoming. The public transit bus negates the need for your own vehicle once here for grocery shopping, restaurants, the outdoor center or the big ski mountain. Buffet breakfast is provided and common use of the refrigerator and food storage and food preparation allows for self sufficiency and economy in meal preparation. Well stocked beer and whiskeys are sold here. Bottom line, I will return here, yearly, and any time of year. I feel at HOME here.

The nicest hostel I've ever stayed in! Very accommodating staff who were more than happy to wait up for us due to a late arrival. Beautiful decor inside, felt like a winter oasis.

What a great weekend! I don't know who had a better time, my wife or my dog. Considering we had a cozy private room, the term Hostel is misleading, it's more of a little slice of heaven with some really cool guests a beyond welcoming staff. Its a beautiful drive from NYC and 100 % worth it. We definitely hope to return in the fall to watch the foliage change. Good Vibes, fresh air and a sky full of stars. I highly recommend and can't wait to come back. Thanks again Justin for the insider local tips and the lay of the land. You really helped us maximize our stay. We had a ton of fun and got some much needed rest & relaxation! 6 Stars
