Love staying right next to the beach and water. The ice cream parlor is a wonderful addition and the ice cream is fantastic. Our room was very quiet, and we had a nice relaxing stay.

Updated mom and pop motel!

The hotel was just what we expected. Very budget friendly. We especially appreciated the barrel sauna/swim! The place is old but has been nicely updated. Tight rooms like most of the old mom and pop motels. Very clean. We would stay again.
