Everything the Bold Coast
has to offer — from one spot.

Machias River Inn sits right in the center of Machias on Route 1 — the main artery of the Bold Coast. You're next door to Helen's Restaurant, across the street from the Sunrise Trail, and within an hour of every major destination from Milbridge to Calais.

The inn is a natural hub for Bold Coast exploration. Whether you're hiking the Bold Coast Trail in Cutler, watching puffins off the coast, riding ATV trails, or just driving the backroads looking for moose — this is the place you come back to at the end of the day.
