Amazing

Amazing as usual, It is our staycation away from home (we live 20 min away). A charming place for a couple’s night away if you like a quiet cozy night by the fireplace . Rooms were in perfect clean condition and our room had a partial view of the harbor. Highly recommend!

Classic Cape

Came here for a birthday getaway for the night. It was perfect! Small owner feel, beautiful, unique such a nice change from the cookie cutter hotels you find everywhere. The jetted tub was massive and such a great way to relax! The bed and pillows were comfortable and it was hard to get up the next morning. I can't wait to come back for a long weekend to enjoy all the amenities. The service at the front desk for top notch. This is a gem for sure!
