Captain Lindsey House Inn, Rockland

The fine oak paneling, along with a wonderful collection of pieces from Ken and Ellen's world travels, offers a feel of worldly hospitality that is our trademark. Antiques and Persian rugs, amidst modern amenities surreptitiously concealed, offer our guests a combination of genuine historic feel and the conveniences of modern times.

Nine air-conditioned rooms offer luxurious beds with European down comforters and pillows, desks, 2 comfortable reading chairs, Wi-Fi, televisions, large bathrooms equipped with hair dryers, fine toiletries, fluffy towels and bathrobes. Newspapers are provided each morning and chocolates are laid upon the pillows in the evenings. Guests enjoy afternoon baked refreshments with port wine or tea, available fireside or outside in our private walled-in garden. A well-stocked guest pantry is also provided.

A large English breakfast is served buffet-style every morning. Coffee and teas are up by 7:00 a.m. Guests are treated to a hearty array of homemade granola and cereals, locally-baked breads, muffins, coffee cake, yogurt, breakfast meats, egg dishes, Belgian waffles, fruit compotes, and more. Many of the recipes are in Ellen Barnes' cookbook, "A Taste of the Taber: Classic Maine Coastal Cooking."
