Trailing Yew

Wonderful afternoon spent on the island. Accommodations were great takes you away from the hustle and bustle on mainland. Rooms were quaint and simple. Breakfast to order, delicious, mainly all homemade and locally sourced the best pumpkin scones! with time to sit down and chat with everyone else in the building. Loved having the peaceful evening here would like to return.

Just spent a wonderful night at the Trailing Yew and it was like stepping back in time a hundred years - rustic and quaint with great staff and delicious breakfast ( included ) - if you want to come to a place to clear your mind without the frills , this is your it .

A great and reasonable option on monhegan. We had 7 cousins in 5 rooms in their seagull cottage. No electricity in rooms. Oil lamps. But bathrooms had lighting. We loved it. A bit of a walk from ferry landing but you're there to walk anyway. And it is nice to get away from the "bustle " when ferries come and go. We will be going back. Some nights they don't serve dinner so ask ahead to be sure. But they will recommend one of the other places to eat and that worked fine. Great for families, couples, and single travelers.

A beautiful lodging on Monhegan. It is very rustic and we loved that. No electricity in our room, though it is available in some rooms. Kerosene lamps. Shared bathroom. We loved the 19th century feel. Especially nice are the meals... You share a table with other visitors. We met wonderful folks from all over. Highly recommended for a unique experience.

I used to come here every year, in June for the flowers and again in the last week of the season. October. Ask for the cottage. Great food, great camaraderie, forever memoirs. If you like fresh cooked mackerel, bring a fishing rod with small jigs and ask the kitchen if they might consider .... Make sure you share... One time brought a couple of buckets of giant mussels from the North part of the island. Scrumptious. Hank. Find the secret cave on the East side..... If I told you, it wouldn't be a secret

Most wonderful historic, rustic, and unique hotel. Simple rooms, mostly without electricity, gorgeous views, fun people, island life. If you want a standard hotel, this isn't the place; if you want an amazing stay at a place like no other, book right away! Also, the breakfast (included) is EPIC.

There is no place on the Island like "the Yew" it is one of the oldest Art student hang outs on the island. More great painting workshop students book here than anywhere else. Why...the staff gives you all kinds of kicks in the bum - with a lot of laughs -, the food is great for working artist, especially the donuts. For kids its heaven cause you can run around like crazy. I could go on, I started going to the "Yew" in 1994 and for me and my family it's the best buy on the island. Thanks Marion and the whole Yew crew. Mike D.

Have eaten here for years, always excellent. Recently stayed for the first time and can say the overnight service is also excellent. Would highly recommend to anyone staying or eating while out on Monhegan

We had a party of 20 people for dinner. A choice of Lobsrer, Roast beef or breaded haddock. BYOB. It was homemade cooking at it's best.

One of the most beautiful islands in Maine. Hike the perimeter in about four hours. The ferry to and from the island takes about an hour. Lots of seals in the area.

I stayed here for the 2nd time this past week and everything was excellent. The staff are all super nice and accommodating and the building is in a great location to see the views of the ocean and nearby Manana.

Rustic but wonderful. Don't expect mints on the silk pillow cases and you will have a great time. Terrific service and food, too!

We never stayed at the rooms, but ordered out dinner. Absolutely delicious with cupcake included!

Wonderful staff! Very vegan, GF friendly kitchen. Can't day enough good things. Felt very cared about and for.

The ice cream sandwiches are huge and delicious! Especially after a long hike!

Very accommodating and friendly. We loved our experience here. Can’t wait to visit again in the future.

I've been staying at the Trailing Yew once or twice a year for the last 23 years. That says it all.

Great little place, simple but cozy, super friendly.

Beautiful place on the island. Words can't describe how magical it is here

Like nowhere else - unplug from daily grind and plug into glorious nature
