The Wild Iris Inn was built in 1894. It was originally as a two-family house built by Walter Brown, who lived here until 1929. This beautifully restored Victorian-style house retains many of its original features, along with all of its New England charm. It has been operating as a bed and breakfast for the past twelve years.

We will be happy to help plan your activities, make your restaurants reservations, or recommend places for you to visit. After a busy day, return to the inn and relax in our cozy common room or sit in the backyard garden as you make plans for dinner at one of Portland's many outstanding restaurants.
