Fodor's Expert Review Captain Freeman Inn

15 Breakwater Rd., Massachusetts, 02631, USA Fodor's Choice

Named for the sea captain who had the home built in 1866, this gracious inn exudes mellowed elegance with original ornate plaster ceiling medallions and marble fireplaces, along with a fun modern touch—a heated saltwater pool, open year-round. Guest rooms are adorned with antiques and offer luxurious amenities like Turkish towels and artisan bath products. Most rooms have fireplaces; three rooms upstairs have their own private sunrooms, perched above the trees and the pretty back lawn.
