Meet the Innkeepers

Judi & Walter Hauer

Judi and Walter Hauer think of themselves as Bostonians, although neither of them were born or raised there. Walter was born in Czechoslovakia and grew up in Germany, while Judi was born and raised in Ohio. Both spent their adult lives living close to Boston, mostly in Belmont. Once their only child left for college, Judi and Walter had a chance to consider changing their lifestyle. While many of their friends planned out retirement, the Hauers explored the possibility of becoming innkeepers. They set their sights on Kennebunkport once their Boston home sold. The Hauers had spent only two weekends in Kennebunkport prior to settling on this community for their new endeavor, but it just felt right! They love this sophisticated, yet quaint, town with its many galleries, boutiques, fine restaurants and spectacular seashore. The Maine Stay Inn, a grand sea captain's home, captured their hearts, with its sprawling grounds and private cottages. Judi and Walter love the Inn’s proximity to the ocean, where they often enjoy scenic walks and biking along Maine’s breathtaking coast.
