Live and work on Monhegan Island - Maine's most famous home of lobstermen & artists

The Island Inn is an iconic seasonal hotel (established in 1907) and restaurant located 11 miles offshore of Mid-Coast Maine on beautiful Monhegan Island - an unspoiled nature lover's paradise of woods, cliffs, and rocky shores, and a small community of lobstermen and working artists. Most of Monhegan Island is preserved as a conservation area with 12 miles of hiking trails around the highest headland cliffs on the East Coast and endless rocky coves.

The Island Inn has 32 guest rooms in 2 historic buildings.  In addition, the Hotel operates an in-house 75-seat fine-dining restaurant and a free-standing café, The Barnacle.  The Barnacle will be your home for the summer!  It is an Island landmark that was built in the 1840s as a fish house, but has been the home of a variety of restaurants and tea rooms for over 100 years... It is a funky gem that serves the best coffee, tea, baked goods, chowder, and sandwiches on Monhegan.  It also carries a sweet collection of gifts and tees along with a nice selection of beer and wine.  It literally sits over the water adjacent to the dock and has the best ocean view and breezes of any cafe in the country!
