Glen Cove Inn & Suites Rockport

The accommodations are not represented accurately. The rooms are older than they look in the pictures and need a lot of updating. The breakfast is pre-packaged sweets and bagels. For many the inn may be adequate but I was expecting more. It is more like motel than an Inn.

This inn has been our go to place whenever we vacation in the Camden/Rockland/Rockport area. Price have been reasonable, the location excellent and the rooms have been well maintained. This year we spent 5 nights there and immediately noticed a change in staff at check-in and subsequently with the room servicing staff. I subsequently discovered the property had changed hands since our last stay. Nothing seemed quite as good as in the past. The negatives include a large spider web on our private deck that had obviously been there for quite some time. We found the breakfast offerings were very similar to those in the past except MIA were the make your own waffles. In our room we noted the sink had a crack in it, the baseboard in the bathroom was rusted and there was a chip in the petite walk-in shower.

This hotel is a 1950 - 1960 era motel. It was clean and we had ample room. Rooms are heated using base board type heaters. Bathroom was large enough but the shower was a tad small. It was quiet but it does need a few repairs and upgrades. The breakfast consists of store purchased processed breads, bagels, cold cereals, and bananas. They also have yogurt also retail purchased. The coffee was lukewarm probably due to being outside in an unheated patio. We skipped the breakfast both mornings.

We stayed here in July 2023, and were pleasantly surprised by the rooms, the staff, and excellent continental breakfast. So we expected the same when we booked our stay for July 2024, even though the cost had increased considerably, and the rental terms had also changed. The room this time was not quite as clean and the stopper on the tub was stuck. The breakfast was a big disappointment - the best options from last year were no longer there. The real problem is that I accidentally left something in my room, and they acknowledged that they have it. I have offered to pay for shipping, but they haven't sent it back and refuse to return my phone calls.

Checks all the boxes, CLEAN,FRIENDLY.NICE amenities, close to many things North and South. Spacious room with nice rear deck, star gazing was great. King Deluxe, nice pool, ample breakfast. Walking trail right off the property. Great AC and Heat too.

Older property. Under new ownership. Great new staff. Accommodations cozy, clean and quiet. Short drive to many nearby restaurants and attractions. Plan to visit again next year. Didn't take advantage of the small pool, but those with kids made good use of it. Continental breakfast was adequate. Better than expected coffee!

A comfortable and clean motel, with friendly service, accommodating flexible travel needs for those visiting the area. The front desk staff was exceptionally kind and friendly. Continental breakfast is served and a coffee maker is in the room. All basic needs are well met. Despite proximity to central areas the rooms are quiet. A solid place to stay about ten minutes by car from Rockport. Suite options are available and dogs are welcome. Ample parking space.

For 15yrs we've been coming to the Owls Head Auction and staying at Glen Cove Inn. First of all last fall we were contacted to leave a deposit for our stay this August...(never did before, and wasn't going to start). The previous owners knew we would be there the following year. Approaching the entrance the garden is overgrown with dead flowers as well as the rest of the property. Our room was less than clean. The portico was full of spider webs and not wiped down. The rug inside could have been replaced and was not vacuumed thoroughly and I cloroxed the bathroom floor and shower because it was sticky and not clean. The base boards had built up dirt as well as the track on the slider door and window sills. We noticed the outside of other units have been neglected with rotting boards and mold starting. The breakfast area has been downgraded with the food selection. Wheres the waffle machine?? The plastic valances were cloudy and dirty and couldn't see out of them. The railings have been neglected as well with black mold starting. The weeds are taking over the premises! The pool area is overgrown with shrubs and the bottom field had no adirondacks to sit, not to mention the fireplace. Many upgrades and care had gone into the maintenance and upkeep of this special property over the years. The gardens were full and colorful as well as the hanging baskets and flower boxes. The rooms were immaculate and comfortable. The breakfast area had fresh products, coffee and waffle machine. In closing, I hate to say we we won't be back. Unfortunately, we hate to see this gem of a property decline. Maybe it's because of no help, maybe not. It's very sad and heartbreaking to break tradition, because we liked staying at Glen Cove.

Small, but very friendly staff! Perfect location, with clean, comfortable room. Lovely breakfast (typical fare, but beautiful outdoor setting and better than other small inns I've ever seen) Very convenient to town. We will go there again!!
