Fodor's Expert Review Inn at Diamond Cove
22 McKinley Court, Maine, 04109, USA
Transformed from Fort McKinley, an 1800s United States Army coastal defense fort, into a modern and swanky inn, this sprawling property welcomes guests for overnight stays or for dinners and lunches. It offers myriad things to do: play some tennis or indoor basketball; lounge at the pool; meditate in the yoga studio; or grab one of the complimentary bikes and explore the nearby trails. Best of all, though, may be the three dining options: the sleek lobby bar; the poolside cabana and firepit serving pizza and sandwiches; and the lovely waterfront Diamond's Edge Restaurant + Marina, which is a magnet for those coming by boat just to enjoy its refined menu of New England dishes.
