Holden Inn

Fodor's Review:

If you're watching your budget and can deal with modest basics and rather drab furnishings, try this no-frills old-timey place on a tree-shaded street just outside the town center but within walking distance of several galleries and restaurants. Rooms are simply decorated with Grandma's house-type wallpapers, ruffled sheer or country-style curtains, and antiques such as brass-and-white-iron or spindle beds or marble-top tables. Private baths with old porcelain sinks are available in the adjacent 1840 and 1890 buildings. The lodge has shared baths, an outdoor shower, and a large screened-in porch with a lovely view of the bay and Great Island, far below. The main house has a common room and a screened front porch with rockers and a bay view through the trees. Pros: Rock-bottom prices, walking distance to harbor and village shopping, pretty, tree-shaded grounds. Cons: Rooms are bare-bones and very old-fashioned feeling, many units share a bath.

  • Hotel Details: 26 rooms, 10 with bath
