Samoset Resort

The Samoset is one of New England’s premier destination wedding venues. Samoset is one of the few properties in Maine that can handle larger events and still provide the excellent service and attention to detail that a destination wedding requires. The Samoset has three exclusive reception locations including a new Wedding Pavilion overlooking Penobscot Bay. Located on Maine’s scenic mid-coast, guests can enjoy exquisite cuisine, luxurious accommodations, an 18-hole championship golf course, windjammer cruises, or romantic evening strolls through the quaint seaside villages of Camden and Rockport. From your first planning meeting to your final goodbye, the Samoset will make your wedding unforgettable.

The Penobscot Bay Pavilion - If you are looking for a reception in a scenic location then we would like to share our view of beautiful Penobscot Bay with you. Imagine your ceremony on the soft green carpet of our front lawn as the sailboats float by the distant green islands of North Haven and Vinalhaven. Enjoy cocktails on the lawn before dining and dancing the night away under our spacious canopy. This setting is unlike any other in New England. This space can accommodate up to 200 guests.

The Bay Point Ballroom - Experience a true taste of Maine in our Bay Point Ballroom. Designed for smaller events (up to 125 guests), The Bay Point is elegantly appointed with artwork by the renowned Wyeth family.

The Knox County Ballroom - The grand dame of the Samoset, the Knox County Ballroom is one of Maine’s largest and most elegantly appointed ballrooms with its crystal chandeliers and wall sconces. With its seating capacity of up to 300 guests, the Knox County Ballroom has hosted thousands of couples as they begin their lives together.
