Investment Insights

Based on property information with market context.

The Tidewater is a hotel comprising three conjoined structures, including a three-story renovated historic grist mill. The property offers 19 guest rooms, most with ocean views and decks overhanging the water. Tidal waters run through the mill race beside and beneath the main structure, connecting Carver’s Harbor and Carver’s Pond.

Positioned at the head of Carver’s Harbor on Vinalhaven island, the Tidewater looks due south over the lobster fishing fleet and the open sea beyond.

The hotel can be operated as currently designed, or the former mill building—currently 6 units—could be converted into a private residence along with the 13 original guest rooms. The property includes a 0.25-acre lot and 9,267 square feet, and dates to 1800. Zoning is Shoreland.
