The Homeport Inn and Tavern stand as proudly today as they did over 150 years ago, each a reminder of Searsport's rich, seafaring heritage. Built around 1861 by local sea Captain John P. Nichols, he lived there until the 1880s. Located along Penobscot Bay in Searsport, Maine, day trips from the inn to Bar Harbor, Acadia National Park, Belfast, and Camden are ideal.
