A Little Inn on Pleasant Bay


The Main House of the Inn dates back to 1798. It likely started out as a small summer house, typical for this region. According to research by Trevor Maxwell, a reporter of the local Times, in the 1800's it may have served as a hiding place for the slaves traveling along the "Underground Railroad." In his article "Ties to Freedom" he described the small stone cellar under the inn's entrance foyer.

The Main House has four newly renovated bedrooms, each with its own new bath. Three additional bedrooms are in the "Paddocks," again each with full bath. Then there is the Carriage House for the "homemakers." It has two bedrooms, a small kitchen, a bath and a spacious living area with fireplace, ideal for a family.

The Inn stands above Pleasant Bay, yet has a small sandy beach and its own dock. The view from the Inn and many of its rooms is breathtaking. Pleasant Bay, is an enchanting heaven for sailing, kayaking, swimming or strolling along the beach when the tide is out.

Close by are several challenging golf courses, public and private. The shops in the villages of Orleans and Chatham are minutes away. If you are lucky enough to come in the fall, you could witness the cranberry harvest right next door.
