We were here for only one night but the location is absolutely perfect. Short drive to Richard’s for the best lobster roll we’ve ever had. View over the bay was beautiful.

The wifi did not work. We stayed for 2 nights no towel replenishment. I would not recommend paying $900.00 for a 2 night stay at this location
