The Tidewater sits at the head of Carver's Harbor on Vinalhaven island, looking due south over the world's second largest lobster fishing fleet and the open sea beyond. It comprises three conjoined structures, including a three story renovated historic grist mill. Most of the 19 guest rooms enjoy fantastic ocean views and decks overhanging the water. Guests are lulled to sleep by the extraordinary sound of tidal waters rushing through the mill race, beside and beneath the main structure, connecting Carver's Harbor and Carver's Pond. One could operate the Tidewater as it is currently designed or easily convert the former mill building (currently 6 units) into an extraordinary private residence along with the 13 original guest rooms. Vinalhaven is an idyllic Maine experience, and the island makes for the perfect getaway for coastal exploration!
Positioned prominently on Main Street, this versatile mixed-use building offers a unique blend of commercial flexibility and residential income. The ground floor is currently configured with multiple rooms suitable for a variety of business uses, yet many non-load bearing walls allow for easy reconfiguration. Open up the space to create a large-scale commercial space ideal for an event venue, community center, health and wellness studio, creative workspace, or collaborative business hub.

With excellent Main Street visibility, a strong foot traffic potential, and a layout that invites reinvention, this property is well suited for businesses that value presence, flexibility, and a connection to the community. Whether you envision a vibrant gathering space, a multi-tenant commercial concept, or single operation supported by residential rentals, this building offers the bones, location, and adaptability to bring that vision to life.
Fantastic opportunity to own a 48'.32' wharf, mooring, and 16'x20' workshop in Carver's Harbor. The property has been very well maintained and includes recent improvements such as an expanded wharf, crushed granite, new timber foundation support and pressure treated wood around the building's perimeter. Fishermen and recreational boaters alike will enjoy the convenient village location with tidal access at 1/4 tide for small boats and 1/2 tide for larger boats. The one story building is electrified and heated and could be expanded vertically with a permit. Zoned for marine related trades and activities, not for residential living. A fantastic opportunity for a fisherman, artist, writer, or anyone desiring waterfront access.
