Vivian did it again. Another great island adventure. This one on Monhegan. The John Sterling…read moreHarbor House was our base of operations. This is an ideal spot. It's just up from the ferry dock. Breakfast is fresh every morning. Your right at the center of island life with out it being on top of you. The microwave and fridge give you the option to eat on the cheep. However the temptation of the food at The Island Inn just across the road may be hard to resist. The Sterling house puts you at the center of the Island and its history. It is still owned by the original family going back eight generations. Tranquil down east views are out every window. What a great fined.

Love: the pair of Adirondack chairs to behold the priceless views of the sea at sunset…read more Bonus: homemade, freshly baked, warm blueberry muffins every morning. My husband and I stayed with our cocker-spaniel this June (2017) at the JSH Inn. We got along very well with Susan, who is funny and amiable - she even offered to pet sit our dog so we could have an elegant dinner right across the road at The Island Inn! She was an amazing host. Maybe next time we will get to meet her husband Mark. The JSH inn is very conveniently located both to the harbor and to Main St on Monhegan Island. The almost 300-year-old inn was gut renovated in 2005. It is neat and tidy, authentic in design, pro-conservation and cheerful. Susan was incredibly hospitable and helpful, as her knowledge comes from generations of living on the island (during the warm part of the year). In the rooms, you will find authentic touches including old photos of the inn and windows dressed with charming lace curtains. Be on the lookout for small thoughtful luxuries, including a tiny dish of chocolate kisses and a vase of freshly cut purple lupines. I would recommend this inn for couples, singles, and families of a gentle and polite disposition. I'll be back!
