We stayed one night while visiting the beach, and it gave us exactly what we needed. The beds were soft, the room and bathroom were clean, and the room was cool the moment we stepped in, which was necessary after being on the hot beach all day. The restaurant's food was delicious, and it was great to be able to eat and then go right back up to the room to rest. We'll definitely be back next year.

The location of the Tavern is great! There are plenty of restaurants and locations for entertainment without going over the bridge. Owner is friendly and staff is also friendly to chat with. For a locally owned business, they are doing a great job supplying multiple perks for a fair cost!
