Everything was good, they even fixed the bedroom window that was broken, so we could feel safer about leaving our room. Only suggestion I have is to update the furniture and bring back the continental breakfast

The staff was great, helpful in every way. The hot tub control was broken, and the front desk person came out and showed us how to work it. He made a note and ordered the part, and a service man came the next morning.

We were so happy with our stay at The Fog Catcher Inn! It was exactly what we were hoping for. Our room was clean, quaint, and comfortably decorated. There was a gas fireplace which was so enjoyable and cozy. The room was equipped with a refrigerator, microwave and a coffee maker with Starbucks products. We enjoyed the hot tub after we ate dinner at the Moonstone beach Bar and Grill which is a short walk from the motel. The hot tub was nice and hot, perfect! There was also a gas firepit with a glass surround in the hot tub area. The ambience was just what we envisioned for a chilly, Fall evening.

Good location for a hotel that needs rejuvenation and updating. Room was generally clean but the bed needs replacement. Staff was hard to find with little housekeeping staff and consistently absent front desk staff. Other options available in this area with lower cost for a similar aging property.
