This is Harbour Island's only authentic B&B, with the owners living on-site. The setting is a pink-painted stone house that was built between 1798 and 1800 by the island's first justice of the peace, Dr. Thomas W. Johnson. In 1997, Denver-derived owners John and Joni Hersh expanded their property with the purchase of a 1970s-era house next door. Rooms are medium-size, artfully old-fashioned, low-key, and comfortable, and they are usually accessible via gracious verandas that wrap around the upper and lower floors. Bathrooms are tiled and beautifully maintained, and most come with shower stalls, except for three which have tub/showers. Everything shows a personal touch here, including the beautiful gardens. The beach is a 5-minute walk away, and the living room has satellite TV.
