We stayed 1 night in a room with two queen beds, which we found really comfortable. The bathroom looked newly renovated and was very clean. Very convenient location on the cabot trail. Just 1 restaurant nearby, which is nothing fancy but all we needed. Spent the evening at a fantastic beach nearby. I would recommend this stop and would stay here again.

The lady at the front desk was funny, energetic and very fun to deal with! The room was clean, and had been renovated lately. Even with the AC on, it was a bit humid, but this was during a very hot week, so that might be why. A good stay, with a very nice view!!

For one of the few accomodation options in the area, it was clean and quiet so that was a plus. The "Reserve now, pay later" was not applicable as they charged for the room 3 days prior to arriving. So where it tells you that you can pay at the accomodation upon arrival, this is not correct. They will charge your card before you arrive.

We stayed in one of the two bedroom units. It has a fantastic view of the water. The beds were very comfortable, and the bedding was nice as well. The room would benefit from some fresh paint. The bathroom was fully remodeled. The only negative was the bathroom door looked like it had been trimmed top and bottom, and the luan had splintered when cut with a saw. It didn't affect the door, but it was somewhat unsightly. The co-owner, a Chinese lady was hilarious, very animated. Spoke English well.

The owners were very nice. Despite telling Expedia on the phone they would not charge a fee for service dog, they did. That said, they were helpful. I can tell they are working hard to improve the property, so there are pails of tar around, along with other supplies that could be a hazard, but that’s temporary. The views are stunning. Our room was very well furnished with an unusually comfortable bed. It was a very good sleep. I’d go back for sure.
