We had a beautiful, clean room with a very comfortable bed. The grounds were beautiful and the hosts had a lot of little extras to make your stay even more special. Such as a frozen lemonade stand on the porch. We were very happy with our stay.

Room was tight. Bed seemed to be a double instead of a queen. Bathroom fan needs replaced. Loud. Reported to owner. Breakfast is confusing as the brochure shows full style but continental was only offering. Otherwise, adequate and comfortable.

Clean, classic, charming seaside New England inn. Unique in that it isn’t really staffed in the traditional sense but provided much more than we expected - 24 hour guest pantry, beautiful common spaces to relax, fresh cookies upon arrival, and basic breakfast. This will be our new go-to when we’re in the area.

This was a lovely B&B experience! My room was so comfortable. I wish the breakfast included more gluten free and dairy free options, but I brought my own oatmeal to be safe, and a microwave was available.
