 At the Five Gables Inn, in East Boothbay, Maine, that golden time doesn't seem so long ago. For more than a century, the Five Gables Inn has perched on a garden-framed hillside just down the lane from the East Boothbay General Store. It still has a broad verandah with a hammock and plenty of comfortable chairs overlooking a quiet cove where lobster boats tug at their moorings. And guests still linger in welcoming wing chairs in front of a big fireplace in the common room. If guests from the past were to return today, however, they would certainly be struck by all of the inn's modern luxuries. For at the Five Gables Inn, while the best of yesteryear has been lovingly preserved, it has been complemented by all the amenities today's discriminating traveler expects to find in three-star lodging. Completely and beautifully renovated and restored to its original Victorian charm and reopened in 1989, the inn offers fifteen rooms, all with private baths and period reproduction furnishings including queen size, king size, or four poster beds. All of the rooms afford spectacular views of Linekin Bay, its islands, and the sea beyond. Five of the rooms also have working fireplaces.
