Without a doubt, the best inn/hotel on all of Swans Island. ;) Owner was friendly and rates are reasonable. Rooms were spacious and comfortable. Good communication from the owner prior to our arrival made the entire process very easy. We had a very enjoyable stay and will return again.

This is I believe the only Inn on the island.There are 4 bedrooms, 1 and 3 are small and on the road side (but dont worry, no traffic), 2 and 4 on the view side.Room 1 and 3 have limited equipmwnt, just a coffee machine (coffee available) and a microwave. So as there are no restaurants on the island, be sure to be prepared and pack some food on the coast.Beds are very soft, there is no AC and it is not needed.Shower, bathroom and a sink are privative.Not the best hotel ever, but you cant beat the location.Owner is very friendly and helpful.

This is a very nice place to stay if you do not want to stay in B&B. It is clean, simple, with no pretense. It is, in fact, the only "inn" on the island.TIMS market is a short drive away, as is every other island attraction, and can provide you with what you need for basic provisions. Be sure to try TIMS lobster sandwich. I recommend one of the rooms with kitchens for independence. We will stay here again if we visit the island again.

Stayed in room 4. Loved the room and having a kitchen was great. Checking in and out were easy. Communication prior to check in was good. Make sure you head the warnings about making ferry reservations and bring food with you.

Simply Splendid. Ferry service from Bass Harbor to Swan's Island is a delightful panorama of Blue Hill Bay. Harbor Watch' Inn rests in the village of Minturn, deep in Burnt Coat Harbor with stellar sunsets of sky-blue-pink.*credit to Jerry-Lynne

Great charming little inn. The owners are very nice and has a great view. Only down side is having to take a ferry to get to the island it is on.

Nice place... no TV and wifi was spotty at best but good place to put your head down for the night... also bring food if you plan on eating dinner and breakfast the store on the island isn't great

They say you can be fined just for smoking in the parking lot if you could call it that
