The host was very welcoming and helpful. The B &B was very clean and charming. The continental breakfast was adequate but underwhelming. I felt the breakfast could have been elevated to a more interesting level as I have experienced in other B& Bs.

We had a beautiful, clean room with a very comfortable bed. The grounds were beautiful and the hosts had a lot of little extras to make your stay even more special. Such as a frozen lemonade stand on the porch. We were very happy with our stay.

This Inn was updated, and had nice perks like free beach pass parking, free bikes to tour area and decent continental bfast to get your day started. The room was very clean and nicely decorated. Since the TV is in the 1 st floor living room, (with an abundance of board games) there wasn't any ambient TV noise through the walls or in the halls. A great feature for light sleepers. Bring a book or your I Pad, if you need to zone out.

Clean, classic, charming seaside New England inn. Unique in that it isn’t really staffed in the traditional sense but provided much more than we expected - 24 hour guest pantry, beautiful common spaces to relax, fresh cookies upon arrival, and basic breakfast. This will be our new go-to when we’re in the area.
