The Stirling House Waterfront Inn Greenport

Clay was a wonderful host. His home is beautiful and so well designed and decorated. Very warm and welcoming. He is an extraordinary chef. We bought his cookbook, as he is that good! Our room was lovely, quiet, and very close to everything. Clay was very knowledgeable about the town and sightseeing. We highly recommend The Stirling House.

This review is long overdue. This was our 5th time staying with Clay and as always our experience was just perfection! Clay is a gem as is his charming house. Rooms are always clean and breakfast is always to die for. Located in the heart of Greenport the house is a short walk to everything. Clay is so accommodating and warm. Checking in is a breeze and he always has great recommendations. I always feel at home here and look forward to coming back each year. I cannot say enough good things!

We’ve just returned from a three night stay here on Long Island! What can I say, absolutely amazing B&B in such a beautiful spot. Clay was a fantastic host, extremely knowledgeable and helpful and an exceptional cook, breakfast and afternoon treats exceeded expectations. If you find yourself in Greenport, we couldn’t recommend it highly enough.

This was a great place to stay with old word charm. If you are looking for a quiet getaway with a beautiful view of the ocean this is it. The breakfast that we had were much better that what you could get in town. My wife and I can't wait to go back.

Beautiful home, great location, lovely host. This B & B was simply wonderful. We were looking for a place to relax and recharge and we found it in this B&B. Close to town and near wonderful wineries. Clay, the owner was very helpful and made us delicious breakfasts. Would definitely return.

Highly recommend staying at this charming B & B. The room was cozy and comfortable, the host is informative and helpful, and the breakfasts are creative and delicious. In addition there are afternoon home baked snacks which are so yummy. It's a peaceful location with a water view and easy walking into town.

Small quaint B & B at the end of a dead end street with fabulous views of grrenport harbor & Shelter Island. Clay is the owner and contact. He is a true chef & baker, that presents one of the finest breakfasts I've ever had at a B & B. Very old turn of the century home that is beautifully maintained. Easy walk into Greenport with an array of good restaurants. Real value for the money if you can reserve the second floor bedroom in front with gorgeous waterviews. Will go back in a heartbeat.

My husband and i wanted a special anniversary getaway and chose Greenport for its charm, shopping, wineries and charm. In researching places to stay I came across the Stirling House and was impressed by its ratings, reviews and sense of peace and charm it offered. I was not disappointed. Clay, the owner is warm, friendly and extremely helpful when asked about where to go for dinner, where to explore etc. The room overlooked Shelter Island and the bed and accommodations were all very comfortable - we had a great night's sleep. Only noise in the neighborhood are the birds. We were able to use the front porch and have a glass of wine before dinner, and even after dinner we hung out there. But one of the biggest and best surprises were the breakfasts! They are served at 9:30 and for us early birds that elt a bit late - we were ready to go exploring by then, but we stayed, and oh boy are we glad we stayed. These are 5-star gourmet breakfasts Clay prepares himself. Amazing - Instagram worthy for dure - and oh the flavor! We stayed 2 nights - and morning one was fresh fruit with yogurt and honey, a bacon cheese omelet with home fried potatoes and hot lemon blueberry scones. Day two was creme Brule French toast and fresh berries and sausage. Oh and also fresh squeezed juices and coffee and teas. WOW! I will certainly stay here again - it may become our anniversary tradition! Clay gives returning guests a special discount. He has been here 24 years and is one of the nicest most accommodating hosts I've ever had at a B&B. Thank you Clay!

We booked this property to celebrate our 17th anniversary for an 1 night night getaway. Upon check in we were greeted with the most delicious homemade cupcakes with our name on it and warmly welcomed by Clay, the property host. We parked right in front, and walked to various bars and restaurants so it was so convenient and vibrant and didn’t have to worry about driving. On the way back we saw the most amazing moonset on the water (the property is basically on the water separated by a street), there’s a dock you can walk out to. Clay cooked us the best farm to table breakfast, it was so delicious, he really takes the time and effort to make everything perfect. We will definitely stay here again!
