Do you value beauty, privacy and quiet? Then Fathoms is for you.
You'll see an amazing sunset over the bay through your windows. You'll hear the seagulls and the wind blowing through the rigging of the sailboats. No cars, no crowds.
Up to date amenities make the rooms feel like home. Loved the electric black out shades. The rain shower head has the greatest water pressure.
It's a short walk to great restaurants like Louie's Prime Steak House overlooking the water and La Petite Framboise for a touch of French Bistro.
Book well in advance as this small, intimate setting quickly fills up.

What a wonderful stay. From the welcome and care by owners Cindie and Steve, to the gorgeous view and relaxing vibe, I can't recommend this hotel enough. Definitely put it on your list.
We as usual had the most wonderful stay at Fathoms. The room was amazing the hosts Steve and Cindie warm and welcoming and nothing that we asked for was too much.
We will definitely stay at Fathoms on our next visit.

A group of 4 of us stayed at Fathoms for our high school reunion weekend. Great location and easy walk into town. The rooms are comfortable and very well decorated. The common living room space had couches and chairs to hang out and the coffee/snack area was well stocked and all included. The back deck area overlooking the sound has lounge chairs and on a nice day (which we had) was a lovely way to end the day with a gorgeous sunset. We loved the intimate feel of this hotel and Steve and Cindie were amazing hosts. We would def come back.

Very well-acquainted boutique hotel with a nautical, luxury vibe. We especially loved the snack bar and the breakfast! The owners were very kind, and we felt very “at-home” with there being only six suites. I would definitely choose to stay again if ever back in the area!
