Every room is furnished with pieces Jim built in the workshop out back. The beds are made up with quilts and good light. The books on the nightstand are yours to take with you.
Two windows over the working waterfront, where the light comes up first. A writing desk Jim built from reclaimed pine. A quilt sewn by a friend in Vermont.
From $245 a nightThe old captain's quarters on the top floor, and the largest room in the house. Wide-plank floors, a deep window seat, and the whole harbor laid out in front of you.
From $265 a nightLooks down on the pier and the mailboat to Isle au Haut. If you want to wake to the sound of a town that works for a living, this is the one.
From $245 a nightSteps from the wraparound porch where the wrens nest each summer. A small writing table and a door you can leave open to the air off the water.
From $220 a nightNell's favorite. Quiet at the back of the house and lined floor to ceiling with books she could not part with when they left Brooklyn. A good chair and a reading lamp that stays on as late as you like.
From $210 a nightLooks onto the workshop and the garden. North light all day, the smell of cut cedar on a working morning, and a bed Jim built the first winter they owned the house.
From $205 a nightThe smallest room, tucked under the eaves where the wrens actually nest. Cozy in the true sense of the word. Best for one, comfortable for two who do not mind being close.
From $195 a night
