The room was dirty. I was charged twice for the room and mentioned it at check out and was told I wasn’t charged twice. Receipt was given to me and was told to take it up with the bank.

Although off the beaten path it’s in a beautiful location. The room was clean and spacious with a small balcony. The young men running the front desk were so nice and helpful. The continental breakfast had a little bit of everything. There’s a nice pool area, numerous seating areas to sit and visit with the people you are with, and a restaurant/bar at the end of the parking lot! Looking forward to staying here in the summer and enjoying the beach/dunes/state park!

I’ve been booking short stays here since 2016 and the quality of customer service, on-site accommodations (especially the sauna), and the beauty of the grounds have gotten better year by year. Looking forward to the next couple of years…

The stay was amazing! This is one of my favorite hotels esp for an affordable getaway for two 😇 breakfast is great, rooms are clean, very comfy and cozy. Porches are great esp overlooking the woods. Only downside, no late checkout option, and then the coffee was not the greatest. Not sure if it was end of the pot or old milk, but that was the only downsides!
Breakfast views.

Stayed at the inn on New Year's. We're local and this was the closest place to where we celebrated and wanted to be near to the venue due to weather. We were VERY surprised how updated and still quaint the place is. It was decorated beautifully for the holidays. Bed was firm, linens were not cozy - but clean and warm. Shower was great. Bring your own toiletries - the ones provided were a little drying but not the worst I've used in a hotel. Desk clerks were very friendly and accommodating. Late night hot cocoa was a nice touch.

You could tell this was an old hotel. Walls still stained yellow from when it used to be smoking and smell still lingered. Carpet was gross, stains on bed, not very clean facility at all. Felt bad to ask for a refund because they probably need the money. Left after a few hours, didn’t even stay.
