"Operated by the same family for generations since its 1860 founding and designated a National Historic Site, this property features a white clapboard main building with a red mansard roof and 14 antique-filled rooms and suites, plus 15 chalets with full kitchens and 10 traditional cottages. The on-site restaurant serves island fare—chowder, mussels, scallops, lobster—and the grounds are a five-minute walk to Brackley Beach and the extensive dune systems of the nearby national park." - Barbara Peck
