The area is perfect, but the cabin needs a lot of TLC. I knew a cabin wouldn't have AC, but I thought it would have a ceiling fan at least. We had a very hot day, only one window with a screan, and extra small window in the bathroom. Clean and cute, all appliances worked well. Shower worked o.k. but doesn't look too good. Door not closing well because of winter mouvements.

Very small, shower needs help.
Very comfortable
Was able to have our meals.  Great

The staff were very accommodating when we expressed our concerns with the first room that we were provided. They provided upgraded accommodation that was very pleasant and we were not charged more. It was the beginning of the season so restaurant on site was not open. Was a beautiful location right on the water. In better weather we would have been able to enjoy it more.

Staff was incredibly friendly... however very disappointed. The pictures did not show the lack of maintenance and dated features. Our carpet was stained and our room smelled like mildew. The exterior amenities had not been maintained at all.

Restaurant was fantastic. Location of my room right off the boardwalk and seat looking at the water was amazing. No handsoap in the bathroom and no top sheet or sheets around the duvet. Perhaps a new house keeper? Or pre season so not ready yet? But I would totally stay there again
