Quaint and charming little property with the friendliest staff. We loved that the parking was easy, safe and it was right on the beach with nice lounge chairs and sweet gazebo that looked out on the water. Our room was a little small, but our stay was comfortable.

Don't stay here unless u love loud traffic noise a
My room was so loud with traffic noise that I did not sleep all night. I may has well have been in the middle of the highway. I've never ever experienced that. No soundproofing at all. No hot water. No hook up on TV. No one answered at the front desk when I called at about 9:30 AM. I would like a refund for the two nights I did not stay
