The Trellis House

Our review is so overdue, but we could not miss commenting on this fantastic inn. We visited in June of 2024. Glen, Laurence and their staff could not have been more accommodating, kind and flexible. We were greeted with a glass of champagne upon arrival. From 4:30 - 5;30 we could take advantage of seasonal cocktails on the porch with complimentary gourmet snacks. Bentley, the non-allergenic, beloved pup is also a welcoming committee to himself! Our room was perfect and so clean (see photos). We always want a space aside from the bed to relax or read and we had that and more. This trip was in mid-June, and we expected warm weather, but no big crowds because the kids were still in school. Ha-ha...it was unbearably hot (for us), and everyone had flocked to the beaches. We were very comfortable taking refuge in our air-conditioned room, and other spaces in the house where we could stay cool. The food was such a treat, prepared to perfection. Breakfast is served at Blue Shutters right next door and part of the same property. Glen and Laurence have invested heart and soul into this property and it shows it in every detail from cleanliness to decor and food. We will be back this year. (Please see the website descriptions to learn how convenient this spot is to the village, restaurants and lovely marginal Way.)

My sister and I had a wonderful weekend at the Trellis house!! The inn is adorable, comfortable, conveniently located and welcoming. Glen,Laurence and their staff are amazing hosts…from welcoming us with champagne, to homemade treats, fabulous breakfasts, great decor and warm hospitality. We’ve been visiting Ogunquit for years but may have a new favorite place to stay!!

We visit Maine every spring and fall and have been staying at the Trellis House for several years. Every visit just keeps getting better. From the bubbly upon arrival to the cookies and evening treats, to the most comfortable pillows and bedding ever. And the welcoming staff makes it feel like coming home. If you are looking for a special place to lay your head, this is it!

Lovely property with the most comfortable bed I've ever slept on! Our one full day in Ogunquit was sunny and beautiful, and I actually considered (for a moment!) just staying in and reading on the bed rather than going out and enjoying the town. Glen and Laurence are gracious and entertaining hosts and provide a high level of hospitality, along with Diata (sp?) and other staff members. Our first morning, we reported to Glen that the heat in our room didn't seem to be working properly. He attended to it within minutes, and the room's temperature was perfect for the rest of our stay. Trellis House goes above and beyond to make a stay special. Happy Hour was well attended by many guests and took on the air of a friendly little cocktail party -- with good cocktails and nicer hors d'oeuvres than you might expect. One afternoon there were tasty spanakopita along with a generous cheese platter. The next day, there were stuffed mushrooms and other savory goodies. Trellis House also offers sweet treats in the evening, available in the common area as you return from dinner out. When I reserved, I noted that we were celebrating an anniversary, and a tasty little homemade cake greeted us in our room. A very nice touch! Breakfast was delicious, with self-serve coffee, tea, juice, and water, and gracious table service for the meal. There are several good restaurants within a short walking distance from Trellis House. Perkins Cove is about a 15 minute walk away as well. I chose very well when I reserved Trellis House!

Our stay was fabulous! It was my daughter’s birthday and they made it an amazing experience! We will be back, the breakfasts are fabulous! We love the location and the excellent hospitality! The rooms are very comfortable and happy hour was even better!

My husband and I had a wonderful weekend at Trellis House. We were offered a glass of bubbly on arrival, delectable snacks and soothing cocktails late afternoon, fun conversation with other guests, post-dinner sweets and delicious breakfasts. Laurence, Glen and staff are the ultimate hosts. They even made an anniversary cake to celebrate the occasion. Of course, this is in addition to the pampered sleep accommodations! We look forward to returning in the future!
