We stayed previously under the new owners, and we didn't think it could get any better. But they have truly knocked it out of the park with the updates they did!

We found ourselves really enjoying the morning room for a quiet breakfast with the warm fire going and soft music playing, really no better way to start the day. Plus, the food was always hot, fresh and delicious. They were also very accommodating with meals and special requests.
We also loved the new speakeasy! Just a wonderful spot to sit and watch the water in the evening.
Although it was cold, we still enjoyed walking through the different shops in the area. We can't wait to come back to enjoy the area in the summer!

The property is beautiful right on the water, with a peaceful coastal feel that made it easy to relax and unplug. Our room was spotless, spacious, and very comfortable.
The food was a highlight of the trip. They offered a special Valentine’s Day dinner that was awesome and made the weekend feel extra special, and breakfast each morning was fresh and delicious.
It was exactly the kind of quiet, romantic getaway we were looking for. We’d absolutely come back and highly recommend it to any couple looking for a relaxing waterfront escape.- google needs more stars for this place!

We love coming to this beautiful place to unwind & reconnect. So many things to do from water sports to beach combing at one of the nearby beaches or just enjoying the views from the dock. The breakfast has always been so delicious but, the new owners have elevated everything they serve & the way they serve it. The hospitality is outstanding.

The breakfast has always been so delicious but, the new owners have elevated everything they serve & the way they serve it. The hospitality is outstanding. The rooms here are gorgeous & attention to detail is at its upmost. Would recommend this getaway 10/10.

My husband and I LOVED staying at the Inn! It is so beautiful and the hosts are so friendly. We were so relaxed the whole time we were there because of the atmosphere and all the little details you can tell they have thought through to make sure your stay is the best. The breakfasts were amazing. We loved the ‘speak easy’ room, sitting by the fire pits outside,...See More

We were so relaxed the whole time we were there because of the atmosphere and all the little details you can tell they have thought through to make sure your stay is the best. The breakfasts were amazing. We loved the ‘speak easy’ room, sitting by the fire pits outside, and everything about our cozy room. We already can’t wait to go back and truly recommend it to anyone looking for a special trip to celebrate something and/or just to relax.
