We arrived a little late due to a 1.5 hour wait (well worth it) for lobster rolls at Red’s Eats on our way to the Greenleaf Inn & Admiral’s Quarters in Boothbay Harbor. After a bit of a scare from my deadpan-humor wife, Jersey the manager lit the firepit (real wood, not gas – this is Maine after all) – his fire starting/building skills were topnotch as he built a roaring fire in a few minutes and he hooked us and the other guests with the ingredients for s’mores. It was nice to meet the other guests in such a relaxed, casual setting with such a nice view of the harbor. There are actually two inns – the Greenleaf Inn and the Admiral’s Quarters that share the same amenities. We were in the Admirals Quarters and only peaked into the Greenleaf Inn, as our place had everything that we needed. This concept was somewhat unique, for us at least. They have a full kitchen where guests can cook their own meals or simply store their restaurant dinner leftovers in the fridge (marking their items with the supplied marker and tape). Breakfast was provided (muffins, bagels, granola, coffee, juice, etc.) and everyone helped themselves – like a vacation rental. The inn also had a nice deck and sunroom, both with great views of the harbor. Now back to Jersey… He was probably the most accommodating and interesting innkeeper that we have ever met. He really went the extra mile to help everyone and he made our visit truly memorable. We’ll be back. He better be there… 😉
