Chebeague pron shuh-Beeg is one of Maine s most beautiful islands, home to generations of year-round and summer families. At 3 1 2 miles long and 1 1 2 miles wide, Chebeague is the largest island in Casco Bay. It s name means isle of many springs. Chebeague Island has a storied history of sailing, notably the stone sloopers, men who carried ballast for the sailing ships of 19th century America and later granite for many of the country s most spectacular buildings, including the Washington Monument. The many lovely Greek revival homes on the island were built by these sloopers. The Chebeague Island Inn is proud to be part of that tradition. Our history goes back well over a century to the Hillcrest, the first inn built on this site. We welcome you to join us and become part of it, too.
