Bed and Breakfast Accommodations

It was way back in 1832 that Captain George Lindsey, a bold mariner and prominent citizen, fired the bricks for this noble structure. Five years later, he transformed his home into what is thought to be the town's oldest inn, complete with livery stable and popular tavern.

In 1924, the Camden-Rockland Water Company bought the Lindsey House to meet the needs of a growing community. In 1994, the Water Company moved on and Captains Ken and Ellen Barnes bought the buildings. Now lovingly restored and filled with artifacts and furnishings gathered the world over, the inn is embued with a gentle, relaxing graciousness that harks back to its earliest days. The full service Captain Lindsey House Inn, serves mariners, visitors and business travelers.

All nine luxurious guest rooms boast down covered mattresses and duvets, hidden televisions, phones and Wi-Fi. Bathrooms have double wide showers, extra large fluffy towels and bathrobes and hair dryers. Our private secret garden is a lovely afternoon retreat.

Large English-style gourmet breakfasts are served every morning. Our staff will give you all the guidance you need to make your stay in our area exciting and pleasant. The eight bay garage emerged as The WaterWorks. Rockland's very own place to meet friends, enjoy a hearty meal, and celebrate the weekend.
