Fodor's Review:

A narrow road winds through pine woods and beside creeper-covered stone walls to this posh, handsomely designed inn surrounded by gardens and old stone walls. In 2005, genial innkeepers Scott Jones and I. Kell Hicklin bought what had been a slightly fading 1790 farmhouse inn and gave it a clean, crisp makeover. The richly appointed rooms each have decorative schemes and antiques based on grand East Coast-resort towns, from Key West to Bar Harbor. Those in the outbuildings are airy and a bit more contemporary, some with decks and porches. Guests receive free passes to beautiful and private Lambert's Cove beach. Fireplaces and hardwood floors lend warmth to the stellar contemporary restaurant ($$$; reservations essential), where you might dine on crab cakes with caper aioli and shaved-fennel salad, or a main course of braised veal cheeks with sweet corn-English pea risotto and a Madeira wine reduction. Pros: Smart and contemporary decor, fantastic restaurant, serene and verdant grounds. Cons: Need a car to explore island from here, not for budget travelers, total seclusion is a drawback if you love being in center of action.
