    Not your average hotel, very funky, quirky but incredible views, very quiet location where you go to be away from it all. Lots of people making their own meals which is cool. We cooked lobsters Somewhat scattered No private bathrooms But an cool little island

    It was right on the oceanfront, gorgeous views, only a 10min walk from the pier/“downtown”. NA

    It’s history and location on the island. It was like going back in time. Communal bathrooms and small shower and toilet unit. The accommodation was a little faded but this added to its charm.

    Incredible Views! Truly Historic Place! Still operated by the original descendants of 8th Maine who served in the Civil War. Rustic but filled with Love!

    I loved being in an old historic building and sitting on the porch, looking at the ocean was amazing. The outside shower was incredible. You have a great view of the ocean while washing your hair.

    We loved the history of the Inn. The view was exceptional. This inn was built by civil war veterans as a reunion hall , is run by the descendants, on an island with spectacular ocean views, and still maintained in-the the original state with a guest registry starting in 1924 should all speak for itself. The rooms are spartan and if you’re looking for 5 star rooms, this is not the place for you. If you like history and appreciate the preservation and the significance behind the 8th Regiment, you will thoroughly enjoy your time.

    The every night loud noise upstairs by the rooms was extremely annoying and disruptive. It seemed as if guest had no awareness of other guests sleeping as they carried on walking heavily, running, talking loudly, slamming doors and in some cases kids running up and down the hallway. One night I had to ask people to lower their voices.
