Set back from the road behind a large garden overlooked by a lovely covered porch, this B&B in a local landmark Craftsman features nicely appointed rooms with en suite bathrooms. It has an interesting history: it's named for a Depression-era resident kangaroo that provided entertainment for islanders (ask the friendly, knowledgeable hosts for the story), though these days the busy bird feeders and deer wandering through the brush are the main animal attractions.
Spacious units in this atmospheric 1902 house are equipped with a king or queen bed, private bath, and all the serenity a guest could ever want. Suites are equipped with coffee maker, microwave, and mini-fridge; one king suite also has a kitchenette. The inn's restaurant, which features small plates, burgers, and some locally-inspired entrees in an airy waterfront setting, is open for dinner seasonally, usually Wednesday through Saturday.
