If you’re stuck for a bed along this stretch of the coast and don’t mind the chain-hotel ambience for a night, the Fireside Inn & Suites, 159 Searsport Ave. (U.S. 1) (tel. 207/338-2090), is a very good backup option. Some rooms have kitchenettes and/or whirlpools; there’s a pool; a small breakfast is served; and some rooms come with sublime views of the bay (if there’s no fog, that is). However, check as soon as possible—the place sometimes fills up early. High season double rooms run from $200 to $255 per night; suites are more expensive.
