Inn was comfortable. Good breakfast. Helpful staff. Room was small for two male travelers on a golf trip. We used the pull out couch and queen bed which took up most of the space in the room..

The owner and staff were very informative of the area and places to visit. The rooms were clean and well maintained. The breakfast food was great, they offered fruit medleys, yogurt, eggs, potatoes etc… Essentially any familiar favourites one might like for breakfast. Bonus: great views everywhere on the property!

Wonderful place to stay. The staff were helpful and friendly for accommodating a late check-in. The view from the place was amazing. The location was a bit further out of town than we realized but that was on us. But it was worth it for the view!
Verified review

10/10 Exceptional

We stayed one night at this property, the inn was welcoming and the room was great. Amazing views of the water. The Breakfast was good, but could use a few tweaks - like fresh fruit, not Costco and the potatoes could be jazzed up a bit. Aside from these very minor ideas it was a great place to stay on your trip to the east coast !

Beautiful views from the balcony. Public areas very nice. Breakfast was great with a choice of cereal toast and hot selection. Our room was next to the toilets so not ideal. We were only staying one night so was adequate and bed comfortable.

Beautiful small hotel . We had a lovely view of the ocean . Beds were okay although the pillows should be replaced. A fabulous buffet breakfast with beautiful ocean views from either inside or on the terrace . The young people that work there though are amazing , kind and accommodating. Would stay again . Thank you

Verified review

8/10 Very good

It was nice enough, but not quite what we'd expected. While the inn looks like a nice large home, there were no owners on site; just hired staff tending to the 13 rooms. Our room was clean, but basic and unimpressive decor. The breakfast buffet was very good though, and the ocean views from the breakfast tables, and from the front bedrooms I assume (ours faced the back) were lovely.
