Very quiet inn right in the main center of Lunenberg, near shops and restaurants. Our room had a beautiful veranda overlooking the harbor. Staff was incredibly helpful and provided excellent recommendations for eating and sightseeing.

Boasting panoramic views of Lunenburg’s historic waterfront, Rum Runner Inn is located across the street from the Fisheries Museum of the Atlantic in the center of Old Town Lunenburg. It features a free WiFi. Each guest room provides a flat-screen cable TV, seating area, refrigerator and coffee facilities. The beds feature lavish 800-thread count, cotton blend sheets. There is plenty of available street parking besides the inn, as well as an adjacent parking lot. Halifax, Peggy's Cove and Wolfville are 1 hour's drive away. Mahone Bay is 20 minutes' drive away.
