You are paying for the beautiful views. Don’t expect any hotel perks. You are lucky to have a television that works, much less a refrigerator we had to have both replaced several times in a 4 day stay.

This property for the $$ was way worth it. Furniture in the room could use an upgrade but the run was spacious and most importantly ‘clean’. The hot showers never let me down. The entire property is cover by a boardwalk. The dock out into the sound is absolutely beautiful. The staff is awesome, very personable too

More parking, especially handicapped parking would be a great thing. You have one handicapped spot and there was a car there the entire time I was there and they didn't have a special plate or hang tag. I use a cane and am very unstable on my feet, that space would have been a God send. Also, the parking lot is not well lit so that made it even more stressful as I had to park out in the dark area and walk in the dark to get to the ramps where the lights are. This is a liability risk for you.

I loved my short visit to the Inn. We will defiantly be back for a longer stay. Everyone was friendly and welcoming which I haven’t seen for a long time from customer service in hotels. The grounds were clean and welcoming. I went for walks on my own and felt completely safe. I wish I could have stayed longer.
