I stayed in the Keeper's Cottage for two nights and enjoyed my stay. The space is colorful, clean, and the heater was able to keep up with the wintry weather!

There were a couple of matters of attention to detail that bothered me, such as several burned-out light bulbs across the cottage. I also thought one of the proprietors seemed rather cold when I had a question and a miscommunication that resulted in an odd situation for me (though the other seemed much more outgoing). However, by and large this was a good base of operations for my weekend of experiences in Lubec.

The owner of this property has renovated or constructed several buildings associated with the old keeper station for West Quoddy Lighthouse. We stayed in the crews quarters, which is the building closest to the shore with views all around. As I sit on the deck on our last morning I am able to see clearly Campobello island, The town of Lubec and the little bridge connecting the two across the water. The state park we’re sitting next to has wonderful little trails. The lighthouse is almost a mile easy walk from us and is open to visitors. There are wonderful spots for beach combing and lookouts where you can watch eagles fishing from rocks and porpoise that porpoise popping up every now and then. We will definitely be back to this relaxing and beautiful spot. It warms my heart to be here.

When our reservation was made, we made a point to inquire with the owner regarding potential problems for a handicapped person in the party- we were assured there would be no problem and it would be comfortable, so we made the decision not to book at an ADA certified facility in town. Fortunately ramps were brought by us, so we were able to get the wheelchair inside the 4 steps.. the next problem was the bathroom- all toilets were extremely low- even below ‘standard’ height, let alone accessible height. The first floor bed was basically like sleeping on granite with bedsheets.
Other than a beautiful view, I would not recommend the place at all.
