Facing the harbor in the Dock Street historic area, the impeccably historic Cooper's Inn was originally built by Loyalist merchant George Gracie in 1785. Subsequent additions and updates have been historically sympathetic. The downstairs sitting rooms set the mood nicely, with worn wood floors, muted wall colors (mustard and khaki green), and classical music in the background. A courtyard with a pond and bell fountain is a tranquil recent addition. Rooms in the main building feature painted wood floors (they're carpeted in the cooper-shop annex) and are decorated in a comfortably historic-country style. A third-floor suite features wonderful detailing, two sleeping alcoves, and harbor views -- worth the extra cost. The George Gracie Room has a four-poster bed and water view, the small Roderick Morrison Room a wonderful claw-foot tub perfect for a late-evening soak, and the Harbour Suite a harbor-view tub and massage chair. Owners Paul and Pat DeWar often leave packages of treats and passes to the town's historic complex in rooms. Yes, they even have Wi-Fi access.
