First of all, we were not located in the facility identified in the picture.  We were located adjacent to the Inn which would not have been a problem--BUT, the renovation was not complete in the old house we stayed at.  There were bugs everywhere--inside and out.  The room had not been cleaned/checked prior to our arrival.  My husband actually cleaned the spider webs/dust from the lamps, AC/heater unit upon arrival.  The dresser literally had significant food (or something) remnants in the drawers.  The basement was being worked on, minimally closed to the outside with a loose tarp, and you could see the basement lights through the floorboards.  Bed was not comfortable and only 1 lightweight blanket was available.  The exterior was dimly lit with no walk leading to the entry door--had to walk across the rutty lawn.   The street was very busy and noisy.  Never interacted with the owner/staff as no one was ever available--keys were left on a public counter in the main bldg in an envelope with my name/room# on the outside and the key was returned to a box on the counter upon leaving.  This is a terribly unsafe practice for the guest--anyone could grab any key, unlock the door, return the key, return to the room and wait; the guest would be unsuspecting/unknowing.  Very very unsafe.
For perspective, I have traveled extensively all over the world for work and personal over the last 40+ years staying at different types of hotels and B&B's--all categories all ratings--I have never before left a bad review.

Not a recommended place to stay; unsafe practices

See the prior posted review from OnAir59852834963 who was also there in July. I didn’t require a handicap entrance, but his photos & room description were spot on. There was NO WHERE to put your stuff except for the floor. Pet peeve of mine when staying in a hotel. We had brought food, but only one person at a time at the small table. We had booked another room on our return trip from our destination & we canceled it & found other accommodations.

Just ok, but not worth what we paid

Regretfully took a chance based on posted reviews.  The room was clean, but from the uncomfortable bed wedged into a corner, no extra blankets, no comfortable place to sit, no working heat, and paper thin walls everything else was very disappointing.  No staff available at the desk to ask any questions, no instructions in the room as to how to run AC/Heat, TV.  WIFI didn't work.  

Only good part was a clean room

I had to change my arrival date by 2 days. As a result, I got an 'upgraded' room. So instead of $250 for 2 nights I had to pay $300.  I needed handicap access and walk in shower.  The parking lot is gravel. Hard to walk on when you have trouble walking to begin with. The entrance to the room was up 4 stairs with wide handrails that were barely grippable. The entrance was through a storm door to a 'sun porch' (with no furniture). The door would only open about 24" because it was blocked by a stairway leading to the 2nd floor. This is definitely not a 'handicap accessible' room.  Once inside the room there was a king bed, a old style glider (mid century with horrible flower pattern on it, not a vintage one that would fit a 100 year old house) with foot stool, a table with coffee pot, 1 chair, 1 old night stand, a wall mounted TV and a fridge. No headboard, no closets, no luggage stands, no shelves, nothing, not even 2 chairs to sit at the table with.  The bathroom is huge, but the vanity is very small and there is no place to put anything, and there are no grab bars. I had to use the ironing board as a table in the bathroom. They had hangers on the towel rack for your clothes. Someone decided that it would look good to sand portions of the hardwood floors and then throw a coat of poly on it. The result is horrible, they look awful.  They should have sanded them all the way, stained them to make the color even and then put the poly on. It would have looked like a nice old house rather than a ratty cabin. The TV was awful, you couldn't get any major networks, nor could you find the cable channels we normally watch. Basic Spectrum with about 12 channels. We wound up watching reruns of shows we never watch. This room did not match any of the pictures they show on the website. It was awful. The worst part was the bed was the hardest bed I have ever slept on. It was like sleeping on the floor. It was awful. I was told that the owners had purchased the building this room was in last year and were renovating it. I don't understand why they didn't put decent furniture in it. I would not stay there again. The experience was terrible.  To pay over $150  a night and not have a decent bed or even basic amenities in the room or breakfast, is highway robbery. I have found as I travel that mediocre is the flavor of the day and this one sure was. On my way home I stayed in a place that had a living room, bedroom, 2 TVs with full coverage, handicap bathroom with many grab bars, comfortable bed, pool, hot tub, free breakfast, etc for the same price. 

Where's the love?

I booked online and provided a note I'd be arriving late. The owner left a key out for me. The room was clean and comfortable. I got a room in the main house, a very nice Faux Victorian building, well maintained.
I can highly recommend it over the motels in the area. This will be my goto place to stay whenever I'm in the Lincoln area.

Nice room in a house.

Great room. We stayed in room #20. It was a hike up the steps to get there but worth the space. Nice clean bathroom, walk in shower . It was great having a refrigerator and microwave. However the bed was like laying on bricks!

Great hidden gem

The rooms we had were large and comfortable, very clean and well appointed. We had to make some last-minute changes in our reservation and they were very helpful and accommodating. We look forward to getting back to Maine and we will definitely stay there again.

Great place!

The room was clean, comfortable, and relaxing. Very peaceful environment. The common areas are inviting.  The owner takes pride in providing a high-quality experience. I would definitely stay at the Whitetail Inn again!!

Wonderful Place

Very cute BnB! Charming big rooms with comfy beds, walkable to a local pub/coffee shops. We were on the end room & it was quiet and cozy. You park right infront of your room for convenience.  We would definitely stay again! It's a really cute spot.

Cute BnB

It's important to keep in mind just what Lincoln, Maine is; a small rural town with a population of less than 5,000 people. As such, you will not find a Hilton or Holiday Inn. What you will find is motels, inns and camps with cabins and camping sites. 

This Inn is about as good as you will find in a rural Maine community. The price is fair, the rooms are clean and the staff, when you can find them, are friendly! 

The negatives:
The rooms are small, the two beds in our room were very uncomfortable and the staff could not be found in the afternoon! The office hours are until evening, either 8 or 9 pm. But, they could not be found even when standing at the front desk and repeatedly calling for assistance. In the morning it's a different story, they are easily found. It's after about 1pm they seem difficult to locate.

Honestly, the uncomfortable beds were the biggest issue for us.
