Puzzled with this place. Very limited and expensive dinning. Felt like The Shinning because of isolation. Once you're there you're stuck there. Understaffed even though it wasn't busy. Clean..nice room, although in room fireplace inop.

Beautiful conversion of an old military facility to a hotel. Great pool area. Spacious, clean, confortable room. Nature surrounds with walking trails. Food OK, but could be improved to match the remainder of the experience. Fun to ride ferry to the island.

Lacking in hospitality

After we walked up a hill to the Inn with our kids and all our stuff, we were told “sorry” for not picking us up and then made to wait an hour (including having to feed baby in lobby) while they tried to find our reservation (while blaming us for booking through hotels.com). Once checked in, the rest of our stay was fine. Food from the restaurant at the hotel was very average - edible but would not recommend or return.

Beautiful But Over Priced

Very misleading Thought that the hotel was near the water Pictures that were shown made you think that the hotel was near the water but it was a walk over the hill, walk to the beaches were over the hill Very secluded and very quite Hotel is centered in the middle of an old army barracks Food was very expensive and average for the price A lot of walking The ferry schedule is very limited in September unless you want to walk 15 to 20 minutes over the hill to the other Ferry stop Over priced!!

Its sad to say because this place has so much potential but clearly under staffed. They have the desk boy working 4 jobs and there isnt a lot of communication with everyone working. The facilities are so amazing just hard that they are not all free due to the price of the room. Also, the cleaning service never came to freshen our room. It just felt like we constantly were st the front desk asking for things that typically are done at a 3 star hotel.

We had a great stay! And everyone was very nice! And it was Beautiful and peaceful!! The only thing I will say is if you have to leave early arrange transport to the ferry the night before because the front desk is not open early, And calling the number went straight to voice mail. Also, coffee in the morning was not easily accessible. Will definitely go back… and I will take extra keurig pods ☕️

The Inn itself is gorgeous on a lovely quiet island for some exploring. The rooms are large and well maintained, and the staff while inexperienced does their best to help and answer questions. Our room was ready when we got there early, and they let us check-in a few hours ahead which was greatly appreciated. The pool is nice (a little chilly) and the hot tub was boiling, and we enjoyed relaxing by the pool. The beaches are nice to visit from a short walk but don't expect sandy beaches here. We walked around the island, even outside of the homeowner's association barrier and there is a nice gift shop where you can get ice cream, popsicles and some treats for ~1 a pop. Surprisingly reasonable for this island. The main issue with the island is food as one might expect, so just keep you expectations on the lower end (unlike the higher side prices) and you won't be too disappointed. The hotel restaurant is OK - the pancakes were at least good - but the two island restaurants left a lot to be desired. Would we return? I think if you are looking for a short getaway or are willing to go to portland for food, it can make an excellent relaxing trip.
