Your Perfect Vacation
Looking for a unique gift this holiday season? Why not give a fabulous Maine adventure to someone you love? Customize a gift certificate to include a luxurious stay at the Captain Lindsey House Inn along with a windjammer cruise on the Schooner Stephen Taber. It may be chilly outside now but just imagine a glorious cruise aboard a classic coasting schooner. Whether in June when longer days stretch into soft, sun-lit evenings, or September when the hills and islands are clad in autumn’s brilliant palette or any time in between, we can customize the perfect getaway for your special someone.
Windjammers are historic vessels that harken back to the days of wind and muscle power. More than a cruise, it’s a voyage. Imagine sailing out of the harbor with the Rockland Breakwater Lighthouse off your port side, a perfect picture that could have been made a century ago. Guests are treated to an insider’s tour of Maine’s Penobscot Bay, one of the most acclaimed cruising grounds on Earth, in a comfortable and casual atmosphere that makes it easy to unwind.
Traditional Lobster Bake
The Taber is renowned for spectacular galley fare, which has earned a reputation of its own, featured on The Food Network’s Best of… series, PBS’ Culinary Travels with Dave Eckert and the Food Network’s Rachael Ray’s Vacations. And no trip to Maine would be complete without a traditional Lobster Bake.
Fall asleep underneath a star-studded sky, the Milky Way laid out above you like a twinkling blanket, wake up shrouded in a thick fog then sail into clear skies propelled by a strong wind that gives you the feeling of flying across the sparkling sea.
Combine a land-stay at the Captain Lindsey House with your windjammer cruise and enjoy early check in after your sail or luggage storage while at sea. Breakfast is our specialty at the Lindsey House.
Lindsey House Breakfast
A large English breakfast is served buffet-style every morning. We source food locally: eggs, vegetables, fish, meat and coffee are all bought from local purveyors. Our intention is to offer the most delicious food without losing the hearty flavors people come to Maine to experience. And after breakfast enjoy convenient access to all the treasures that contribute to Rockland’s award-winning community.
In addition to a relaxing adventure aboard an historic sailing ship and a land stay at our luxurious inn guests receive $50 in Midcoast Money, 2 tickets to the Maine Lighthouse Museum, 2 tickets to the Farnsworth Art Museum and Wyeth Center, a handmade Chocolate Seascape, tokens to the All Aboard Trolley to tour of Rockland’s historic district, and a signed print created by Capt. Ken Barnes commemorating your week on Land and Sea.
