History
Established in 2015.

Meet the Business Owner: George and Jean L.
Innkeepers Jean and George recently purchased Silvershell Inn in the spring of 2018 from Kate and her husband Ryan, the previous owners who converted the historic Cobb parsonage into a residential bed and breakfast. The new owners and hosts are committed to continuing the 5-star level of service for which the Inn is known and have completed a renovation of the inn and the premises. Recently retired from 42-years of teaching, coaching sailing, and college mentoring students as well as hosting guests at The Stony Brook School, a well-known boarding school on Long Island, NY, Jean and George bring to Silvershell Inn a wide range of educational backgrounds, skills, and life experiences appropriate to hosting a bed and breakfast.
