    A lovely B&B!

    May 01, 2013

    Beautiful Room, gorgeous details and finishes throughout. Friendly owner & staff, Spotlessly clean, and beautifully renovated. Great pancakes and breakfast spread. Loved the porch for morning coffee and the afternoon wine and cheese. Fantastic location on quiet side street between Bradford & Commercial St, 2 minutes from Macmillan Wharf, restaurants and shops. We will be back! Susan & Bill

    Stayed in the Hatches Harbor. Private Balcony, watching sunset and sunrise. Close to Commercial Street but still quiet. Dale was a great host. Would highly recommend to friends.

    Lovely Inn

    May 01, 2013

    The White Porch Inn is a lovely place to stay while visiting Provincetown. While the rooms are small (as they are in most places in town) they are clean, pleasant and offer the feel of being a guest in someone's beautiful home while not slipping into the "preciousness" one often feels in small accomodations. Afternoon wine and cheese offers a pleasant opportunity to meet other guests and gives one a reason to want to return in the early evening. Breakfast is delicious and included in the room cost.

    Great in the off season too !

    April 29, 2013

    I stayed here for 4 nights April 14 ~ 17 and enjoyed the whoe experience. I had the sunny room over the porch with views of the harbor AND the monument and loved it all. Dale and Tim and Sean prepared great breakfasts, and provided a wonderfully welcoming atmosphere. It's close to the P'Town Library which is a destination by itself, as well as the East End restaurants and galleries.

    Small room but lovely stay

    April 24, 2013

    Although the room and bathroom were much smaller than expected, the stay was very nice. Dale was a very warm host and made delicious pancakes. The entire house is beautifully decorated and extremely clean. Would recommend to others and will stay there again on our next visit. I hope you enjoy as well!
