10/10 Excellent
"The lighthouse stay was excellent. It was our anniversary and my wife and I had decided to stay for 2 nights. Upon arriving at the hotel we were greeted by a wonderful staff member at the front desk by the name of Dyan. She greeted us and checked us in and gave us information on what’s near by as well as the amenities at the hotel. When we went up to our room we were surprised at how they had decorated the bed which was set up with rose petals, ballon’s and small light up candles. The next day at the dinning room while we were having breakfast we were met by another staff member by the name of Diane who surprised us with a small cake that said Happy Anniversary. They even played music saying Happy Anniversary. My wife and I were so surprised at how the staff took time to make our day so special. We also got to meet the owner Jerry who took the time to congratulate us and converse while having breakfast. He was wonderful and funny. My wife and I enjoyed our time at the lighthouse and we would definitely go back. We also would recommend the lighthouse to our friends and family and anyone who is looking for a excellent place to stay."
