Guesthouse on Historic Saltwater Farm

The Wooster family farmhouse was built at the head of Crockett Cove in 1843. The guest house/barn was built in 1964. It faces south with a lovely water view and summer breeze. One can hear the reversing falls at all times except high tide when you can slip over the falls and kayak in the completely conserved natural area, the largest salt marsh on the island. There you may see Bald Eagles, Osprey nests, Herons, Eiders, Guillemots, Kingfishers and other birds in this area.

You may leave kayaks or rowing shells on the shore.

There are several walking trails near by on Vinalhaven Land Trust and Town owned properties and the island of North Haven can be accessed by driving about 3 miles to the northern end of Vinalhaven and taking a boat taxi across the Thoroughfare. The small town of North Haven has several restaurants, galleries and shops, including the acclaimed Nebo Lodge which serves only locally sourced food.
