We stayed here at The Crow’s Nest last year in June, and had a great time. The king suite was the only thing available anywhere for the 4th of July weekend this year, so we booked it. The room was extremely clean with lots of room. The bed… OMG so comfortable! I noticed they had the protective mattress on which is a huge plus. The jacuzzi tub was the best part! This is our new favorite place for the price and location.

They could get fluffier pillows, but the bed was comfortable. It had a fridge, plenty of outlets for plug-ins. Can swim and use the hot tub and breakfast next door. Overall, very nice.

Well kept property, clean rooms, nice staff. Would have been nice to have a coffee maker instead of having to walk over to the Bay Inn next door. Bathtub didn't have a plug or stopper to take a bath which my wife loves to do. Only a shower. Would stay there again.
