This property was fantastic. The location was amazing. We only wish we had more time to spend there. Tammy was wonderful, we appreciated the touch point confirming our reservation and check in time and little note she left when we realized we were going to be later than anticipated. The room was cozy, clean and the beds super comfy. We will be back.

Nice and clean place in Dildo

Everything was clean and well kept. Tammy, the hostess, is very friendly and offers great information about things to do and see in Dildo and nearby towns. Good continental breakfast with juice and fresh coffee.

Stayed in the Reid room. This room is very small for 2 people and luggage. We had to take out what we needed and put our luggage back in the car. For the over $170 you pay, this is not worth it. There were no plugs for phones, watches, hearing aids, etc. No a/c but did have a fan. I had to unplug the tv to plug in the fan. VERY VERY HOT in this room. Your bathroom is across the hall. Very uncomfortable when there is another room right there with people coming and going. Not private at all. Town also shuts down at 5 and not open again until after 9. Was hoping for souvenirs but this obviously did not work out either. Very nice brewery however that is open for dining.

A beautiful home with beautiful decor looking out on the bay at Dildo. The room was huge and immaculate. Everything shone. The breakfast room was facing the bay and they had a nice selection of continental breakfast choices. Everything was served on pretty blue dragon china and I enjoyed my tea in real cup and saucer. Excellent peaceful stay. Thank you Tammy for the upgrade and your hospitality.
