Skolfield Inn | Parking | Self-check-in | Garden 1

Welcome to The Skolfield Inn! ROOM 1: This north east corner room gets plenty of morning light through its beautiful bay window (although, should you choose to sleep in, with our blackout shades you won't even know the sun has risen!). The attached private bath is extremely small, but what it lacks in space it makes up for in style. This room also comes with one off street parking spot (cannot support larger SUVs/trucks).

Neighborhood

We are located in the West End, just over a mile southwest of the Old Port in the historic neighborhood known for its elaborate Victorian-era architecture. Our neighborhood offers you the tranquility of the Western Promenade, an 18-acre park offering scenic views and walking paths, in tandem with a host of popular restaurants and cafes, all within easy walking distance. The neighboring Arts District and Old Port offer plenty to explore on foot, including museums, art galleries, theaters, restaurants, shops, and bars.

Guest Access

Good to know

Built in 1895, this John Calvin Stevens' designed home still has many original features unique to the famous architect. Commissioned by John T. Skolfield, the single family home was converted to an inn and opened for business in 2019. With just four guest rooms, our inn offers a peaceful stay, satisfying social guests or those seeking solace. Your private room is furnished with a queen sized bed, white noise machine, and a reading chair (or couch depending on the room). A Smart TV is provided should guests have their own streaming services. *no cable or streaming service is provided by the host* Off street parking is available, cannot support larger SUVs/trucks, and being competent in reverse is a plus! For those with large vehicles, street parking is readily available in front of the inn from 4pm-10am for overnight guests (outside these hours are hourly restrictions). A half mile away is residential street parking which is free and has no hourly restrictions for those staying longer than a night.

Other Details to Note

***WINTER PARKING: If we should have a snow storm, the day after the storm, we are required to remove all cars from the parking area so it can be properly cleaned out. From 9am through 3pm cars must be moved. Closest street parking with no time restrictions is about a half mile away so its a good time to explore the sites downtown or in our neighboring cities! The host will message through the Airbnb website/app the day of snow removal and any car left in the parking area will be charged a $100 fee***

Not much to say as I mostly was there just to sleep. Great place to stay for a great price. Beautiful view through the bay window, comfy bed and a cute bathroom. What more could you really want?

We had a lovely time staying here! The place was beautiful and clean and the other guests were very nice and respectful. Katrina was super helpful, we didn’t have to reach out once since all of our questions were already answered! A book was left with plenty of things to do in the area which was super helpful. The area is nice and quiet and is super beautiful! We would definitely stay again!!

We had a wonderful time in Portland. The Airbnb was absolutely perfect and in a great spot. The inn was so quaint with so many interesting things to do in the surrounding area. We had fantastic food and had some great recommendations from the guest book inside the Airbnb room! We would definitely recommend this place for a peaceful, private, getaway in a hotspot of Maine. 10/10!!

I loved my stay! Everything was so clean and comfortable. It snowed overnight while I was there and I was so impressed with how quickly the steps, paths and driveway were cleared in the morning with ice melt put down. Anytime I'm in Portland, this is where I'll stay!

Katrina's place was immaculate, well appointed, comfortable, clean without smelling of perfumes and blissfully quiet. Everything about it was easy and I felt safe traveling alone. I would highly recommend.
