there was nothing special to note about this property - in fact, despite the high price we paid, we did not even stay the second night. our room was nothing like the photos - it was dark and covered with dark wood - even on the ceilings. the hallway and staircase was dirty....the breakfast was coffee and a muffin......they even had the nerve to charge us $50/night to park in their parking lot. you expect charm at an Inn....this one was sorely lacking.
This is a great location and lovely surroundings. Nice to have a quaint place and nice change from hotel feel. Would definitely recommend and also come back to visit
The property and Inn were lovely and I can’t say enough about the staff that were very accommodating. The shuttle to the beach was a great feature, as well as the provided towels, chairs, and water. The fact that the mini split didn’t work for two nights in our room was tough. They did try to correct the problem but we really didn’t have air until an air conditioner was installed on our third night. A continental breakfast was served but maybe they needed another sterno or serve strictly cold items. The muffins were delicious!! We totally enjoyed our dinner at the Inn.
Property abuts a beautiful, walkable neighborhood with great water views at the end of the street. There are several buildings on the property offering a variety of room options, with a centrally located check-in and restaurant (with the best crispy bacon EVER). The property is centrally located to local beaches, restaurants, breweries and wineries.
I loved staying at this beautiful inn. The staff was wonderful. The delicious breakfast was served fireside(killer coffee). I took advantage of the spa. Dale gave me a perfect massage and facial. I couldn’t be happier with my stay.
Beautiful, amazing property, staff was friendly and helpful. Remote and quiet location, but some beautiful areas to explore close by. If we are in the area again we would love to stay again.
