"An unexpected hidden jewel! Run by a lovely, welcoming family. It's a traditional simple morel format, elevated by the attention to detail and the stunning views. Out room looked out over the water with the moon reflected, lobster boats, and just a lovely view. Beautiful bedding!! Great attention to detail. Convenient bedside (both sides) AC and USB outlets, which are so appreciated, if you've ever had to crawl under a bed or move it from the wall to access outlets. Can't wait to...
