The allure of the Camden area brought your innkeepers, Beth and Kipp, from Washington, DC. Kipp left a career in computer software, with his most recent position as the IT Director for USATODAY.com. Beth left a career of event planning, most recently for the Smithsonian's National Air and Space Museum.

We have one employee, Roscoe - the greyhound, position - mascot, who you may have the opportunity to meet. Roscoe retired in January 2004 after an impressive 2 1/2 years racing. Now, he daily demonstrates his skills at sleeping 20+ hours a day - truly amazing.

Watch out - a stay at Abigail's may lure you away to Camden and the midcoast of Maine.
