Have you ever heard your parents or grandparents reminisce about vacations at a rambling old hotel somewhere on the coast of New England? Have you ever gazed at a fading postcard of elegantly dressed ladies strolling by the sea beneath white parasols and wondered what it was like back in those days?
At the Five Gables Inn...that golden time doesn't seem so long ago!
Amenities
Completely and beautifully renovated and restored to its original Victorian charm and reopened in 1989, the inn offers fifteen rooms, all with private baths and period-reproduction furnishings including queen-size, king-size, or four-poster beds. All of the rooms afford spectacular views of Linekin Bay, its islands, and the sea beyond. Five of the rooms also have working fireplaces.
Lodging includes a sumptuous, multi-course breakfast prepared by Culinary Institute-trained innkeeper, Mike Kennedy, plus afternoon refreshments with homemade treats.
