Cons: The room was quite small and the towels are thin. Pros: Very quiet, comfortable bed, amazing view from Room 1, great location at the end of a peninsula. There were some unadvertised free breakfast items available. Thank you. We enjoyed a walk along an empty beach in the morning. It was very windy, but the waters were pretty calm near the Guesthouse. Farther up the beach we enjoyed the amazing ocean waves! I could have watched them all day.

We had nice views of the bay . The room was clean and mostly updated. Nice staff though we didn’t see them much. It’s a great spot right on a beach you could walk for miles. Very secluded which we liked but not many restaurant choices for miles. They were on end of season schedule so the restaurant was only open on weekends.id go again!!

Lovely area but since the restaurant was closed for the season (end of September) we had to drive 30- 40 minutes for food. The breakfast was bagels, yogurt and cereal. Don’t think we’d stay there again

Fabulous beach, river, ocean view; only steps away. Very good restaurant also. We watched the lobster being unloaded and a short time later enjoyed them dipped in butter. Would highly recommend.

It's an old house that is converted into rooms. My room was right at the top of the stairs and you could hear EVERYTHING! People walking up the stairs, conversations, people in the next room. I didn't stay due to this. Tried to get some of my money back however the owner didn't want to make anything better. Wouldn't recommend unless you don't care about the noise

We had very nice views and the room itself was very clean. The restaurant was not open during our stay, which we were not aware of. That was a bit of a problem because this property is so far from any other restaurants.

Loved the view from the room! We could watch the tide come in and out and could view the fort. The dining was delicious. The manager was very accommodating with our late arrival. I enjoyed that it was quiet and one could take a walk.

The cottage had two bedrooms. It was comfortable and clean. The restaurant next door was very good, friendly and welcoming. There was also a little store and ice cream counter connected to the restaurant.

Dust Bunnies for Days

Our cottage was good from afar, but far from good. While it may have once been a charming little getaway, it is long overdue for care and upkeep. The bedrooms had smoke detectors removed, and there was an overwhelming amount of dust — not just a little, but on nearly every surface, including the walls, blinds, ceiling fans, shelves, windows, and floors. The bathroom had visible mold and mildew, and the front of the house was overgrown and unwelcoming. Water stains on the ceiling raised concerns about potential water damage and additional mold. The kitchen amenities (silverware, pans, spatula) were dirty with food residue still on them. There was no blind/curtain on the kitchen window so we had no choice but to look into our neighbors cottage. On the positive side, the location was convenient — close to the beach — and the beds were comfortable. However, given the overall lack of cleanliness and maintenance, I would not return under these conditions.

Great place! - we traveled for business, and it was only me staying overnight - not a planned vacation, just a last-minute arrangement - but so surprised at the beauty of the surroundings; the endless beach, the clear ocean so pristine and quiet - and the inn staff was so very pleasant - room was impeccably clean, quiet, just the birds - there is a restaurant right adjacent with fresh sea food, I did not have the time to check it out but it looked lively (next time) over all it was a surprised finding! Beautiful place!
