The property photos are very misleading. Other than a partial view, there’s zero beach access and no comfortable areas to relax and enjoy the view. The bed was extremely soft and only two pillows so we both slept terribly. The worst part was the grungy bathroom. The 60-70s remodel wasn’t just dated but actually disintegrating, distressed in an unintentional way. The shower was about 7’ high over a tub with a too short curtain so the floor flooded - not to mention that it was disgustingly dirty. We both have gray/white hair and there was a long black hair in the soap holder, and a moldy mat that should’ve been replaced a decade ago. I’d never let my guests see something like that let alone expect them to use it. Lastly the fake “fireplace” didn’t heat - but the room had to space heaters?! I’ll never go back.

We had a wonderful stay and the staff was very welcoming. Quiet retreat, easy walk into town. Good location and breakfast. Small changes - longer shower curtain and have working bathroom fan. Would definitely visit again!

We loved the location and staff! Our room, the hideaway room, was a little dated and dark. We sat outside on the patio which was cute. The chair cushions were a bit dirty and the roof had weeds growing on it so it seemed a little neglected. However, Summer, at the front desk was very helpful and kind. We love the area and walkability! The breakfast was nice! If they updated the bedding and carpet/interior, we would definitely go back!

Location is great, it’s dated but charming. It needs attention to some few details. Carpet could use a deep clean, and the bed smelled musty. Grounds are beautiful and could be tidying up a bit. Enjoyed our stay and would stay again. The continental breakfast was a nice touch and done well.
