Beautiful Historic refurbished building. Doug the Innkeeper was very accommodating and shared the history with us on the building. Location is right on the water and a short walk to dining options. Great stop over place if you are catching the ferry from Caribou. Would not hesitate to recommend Customs house to anyone!!
