ON THE QUIET SIDE of Mt. Desert Island in Southwest Harbor, just 14 miles from more populous Bar Harbor, we established, in 1982, Penury Hall in the classic Bed & Breakfast inn tradition. Originally built in 1830, the house was added to in 1865 and 1900 (and remodeled by us in 1977-82) and now provides comfortable accommodations and lodging for us and our guests in a rambling Maine home. The decor reflects our interests in fine art, antiques, books, music, gardening and sailing.

Because there is such an abundance of activity in and near Acadia National Park even on a rainy day (14 museums, antique shops, shopping, etc.), we do have a minimum of two nights stay from June to October. Even then you can only briefly sample the area's attractions. Also remember that Mt. Desert island is only 10 miles by 12 miles and you are never more than twenty minutes away from anywhere... BE OUR GUESTS while you swim, sail, explore, fish, kayak, whale watch, hike, cross-country ski, or just enjoy Mt. Desert Island.

FOR YOUR ENJOYMENT
Winter or summer, our sauna is the answer to a strenuous day of activity. A canoe is usually available to explore the several lakes nearby.

Come and enjoy our green living room!

Our fridge will store your lunchables; laundry facilities will keep you neat and tidy; our library, music, puzzles and games (we play backgammon for blood), and (ugh) TV will entertain you. We would like to extend a warm welcome to those who enjoy the company of cats, who have a sense of humor and who would like to benefit from our intimate knowledge of the Island and Downeast Maine.

LOCATION
On Main Street, Southwest Harbor, (8 miles south on Route 102 from the head of the island), 99 yards past blinker on right toward Manset. Grey house, red door, white porch trim.

OUR PHILOSOPHY of Bed & Breakfast is that you become an honorary member of our family while you are with us, but you don't have to do the dishes!

DO COME AND VISIT for awhile and let us introduce you to the many pleasures this little corner of the world has waiting for you.
