    We had a great stay! It was a perfect spot for our ski weekend. The instructions and communication was very prompt and clear making the process seamless. We would definitely stay again!

    The Optimist guesthouse was modern yet full of history and original mill touches. Very clean, bed was comfy and the location couldn’t be beat! Extra special was the mini gym and sauna. Also loved having 40 Paper steps away in single digit weather. We were in Camden to visit friends and see a show at Camden Opera House. We typically stay at The Lord Camden Inn but this was more private and the outdoor deck will be wonderful in warmer weather. We will be back! Also Ryan was very responsive when we had questions. Only thing I’d change is kitchen faucet is plumbed backwards. Lever towards you for hot!
