We loved our stay at Inn at Bay Ledge! The inn is full of charm, beautifully decorated, and has incredible ocean views. We stayed in Room 10, which is tucked away from the other guest rooms on the opposite side of the inn with its own staircase. It felt private and quiet, and the bed was incredibly comfortable! We loved having coffee on the porch in the mornings and walking along the private beach. The breakfasts were delicious, and the afternoon happy hour with drinks and freshly made treats was a nice touch. Dax, Sara, and Levi were all so welcoming and helpful, sharing great recommendations for the area. We would absolutely stay here again!
We just got home after a few nights stay at The Inn at Bay Ledge. Dax and Sarah did a fantastic job of welcoming us and answering our questions regarding activities around the area. I would recommend The Inn to anybody.
