.The Black Swan offers me so much as it has become “my home away from home.” Having grown up in Stonington, the ability to walk downtown, entertain family members in the home’s spaciousness and view a working waterfront on Penobscot Bay is better than a five star hotel.
Clearly the owners take pride in providing comfort for clients. For eight years, during my week’s stay, there is always something new added to the Black Swan’s decor which adds to its charm. Recently a new roof, window blinds and fresh deck paint were evident that this home is truly cared for.
Many amenities are provided and one just needs to stock the refrigerator as all appliances work well, and the furniture is tastefully arranged for entertaining, if one wishes to do so.
The deck furniture beckons one to grab a book among those on the shelves or just daydream while viewing the islands in the bay.
The open-ness of the kitchen, dining room and living room has been ideal for our family pot-luck dinners. This home clearly meets all of my needs.
