As we rapidly approach the much-anticipated summer season, which is highlighted by heartwarming weddings, romantic honeymoons, and world-class sailing expeditions, we welcome thousands of guests to our luxury Relais & Châteaux hotel. Camden Harbour Inn, one of the premier Midcoast Maine wedding venues, is just a three-minute stroll from the edge of downtown Camden Maine. While you’ll want to spend as much time as possible sailing in Penobscot Bay, savoring gourmet cuisine at Natalie’s, and receiving soothing spa treatments, we highly recommend walking downtown for some excellent Camden Maine shopping.
