ANCHOR INN is steeped in Nantucket history, beginning with its original owner, Archaelus Hammond, captain of the whaleship Cyrus, and the first man to kill a sperm whale in the Pacific Ocean. The Gilbreths, of Cheaper by the Dozen fame, owned the house in the 1950s and wrote of their experience in Innside Nantucket. Our charming and historic inn is located on Centre Street, next to the Old North Church, in the historic residential district. It's the perfect location, so there's no need for a car. The inn is a short walk to restaurants, shops, museums, theaters, tennis, the waterfront, and ferries. Jetties Beach, Children's Beach, and Brant Point are all harbor beaches within easy walking distance, with surf beaches on the ocean side of the island accessible by bicycle or summer beach bus....
