Absolutely love this Inn and will be back again and again. Only small downside for me were the bathroom towels as they are quite rough. But that's a small negative. Staff is wonderful and attentive and the full experience is top notch and classy.

Always top notch customer service at this inn. Leslie and Tosh always provide impeccable attention to guests. Offering room upgrades, informing about 3 hrs of entertainment with dinner on the patio on thursday nights, or offering suggestions on activities on the area. Would recommend for a relaxing get away. Had a great dinner outside on the patio. The crusted cod was done ĵust right , along with the deviled eggs.
