Fodor's Expert Review Shadow Lawn Inn

In an affluent suburb with tree-lined streets, palatial homes, tennis, golf, and a yacht club, this inn fits right in, with its clapboards, columns, antiques, and original artwork. Bedrooms are light and spacious, with fresh contemporary color schemes; some have fireplaces, some have a kitchenette, and one suite has a whirlpool bath. The Robertson Restaurant, open to nonresidents, too, has gained a good reputation, with creative Continental and seafood dishes. Favorites include a tangy chowder of Atlantic salmon, vegetables, and capers, and a full lamb rack crusted in walnuts and Dijon mustard.
