Higgins Beach Inn, Scarborough, Maine

When I think of vacationing in Maine, I picture us with wind-blown hair searching for shells on a beach after an afternoon of playing in the waves.  The coast of Maine has many great accommodations and the Higgins Beach Inn is one of my new finds.  Located in Scarborough, the inn is just 20 minutes from one of my favorite Maine towns…Portland.  I had never visited Scarborough before, and I couldn’t wait to explore this gorgeous coastal town.

This three-storied colonial dates back to 1897, but is filled with modern amenities for travelers.  The hotel has done a fabulous job maintaining the inn’s historic charm while giving travelers everything they need for a comfortable stay.  It is the quintessential Maine hotel that’s a short walk from the unspoiled sands of Higgins Beach.
