    Best family vacation ever

    June 17, 2010

    We overran the inn with family members in town for a wedding. The management could not have been more accommodating or welcoming. They were fantastic! We brought our grandkids. The management found us portable cribs and high chairs. Our suite had a full kitchen which made traveling with little ones much easier. The Inn is beautiful and a wonderful place to gather. We enjoyed the beach, the town, the porch, the breakfasts, everything about it. We will definitely return and tell everyone about it.

    Great Place to Stay!

    July 04, 2009

    We were a large group there for a dance competition. Occupied all but 3 rooms so it felt like we were staying at a friends house. Everyone loved Buff, the dog, He kind of roams the place which is really cute. Bob, the owner, is very careful not to let Buff bother anyone, but we loved him. The place is lovely and the breakfast each morning was great! Some rooms were on the warm side, so I heard. Mine was really cool and comfortable. I think some of the charm was that we did take over the place and sort of hung out like we lived there. I would absolutely stay there again.

    Excellent Stay

    October 13, 2008

    We found our stay at this Inn very comfortable, friendly and pleasant. We definitely want to go back next fall. The location to the beach and the view of the ocean from the porch was just wonderful - truly relaxing and memorable.
