Incredibly Relaxing Stay

From start to finish my experience was lovely. My accommodations were perfect and quaint. Room was very clean and well equipped. Bed and pillows exceptionally comfortable. I loved that a convenience store and a breakfast spot was just around the corner. The views are spectacular and the staff very helpful and lovely. I’ll be staying here again!

Great stay in cute town

The Inn is located in a cute lobster port. It was close to the location for boat rides, provisions and hikes. Was also great to have our dog with us. Very peaceful.

The Inn was right on the harbor in the heart of the small city. There were 4 wonderful restaurants within easy walking distance. Beautiful scenery, kind people, and a wonderful relaxing town. We will definitely return in the future.

Amazing property

We really enjoyed the way this property was managed: self check in but amenities in the main room downstairs and manager available for questions and advice. The room was perfect and the large communal deck was amazing! We hope to be back!

Amazing stay!

We loved our stay here! Beautiful room, extremely clean and neat, and very comfortable. Location was excellent with parking options nearby. The downstairs cafe was always well-stocked and we appreciated all the amenities they offered. Couldn’t have been happier with our stay. Wish we could have stayed longer! Mahalo!

Charming!

We pass through town every year or so, and had seen this waterfront place many times. Finally having stayed, we can share that it is laid back, lovely, comfortable, and heavenly in that Deer Isle way. Loved it.
