We had a great 1 night stay! The staff was very friendly & our room was beautiful. It was very clean & the jetted tub was awesome🙂 Will definitely stay here again!!
The property is a Historic building that is in an absolutely beautiful area close to everything. The room was beautiful, and the bed was extremely comfortable. Absolutely loved that. The breakfast were very good. Staff was friendly.
We stayed in 1 of rooms in the original farmhouse which we thought was pretty cool due to the history of the building as explained on their website. Staff was friendly. Very good hot breakfast with eggs, bacon, sausage, toast, muffins, cereal, etc. Good location close to Anne attractions. Visitor info center right across street.
Had to pay $$ to upgrade our room, as the small old room they gave us on 2nd floor was not as in pics or to our liking.
The breakfast was good and new room was wonderful.

We enjoyed our stay and the hotel pool. Bed was very comfortable.
Room was clean and staff was incredibly helpful for my late check in. Only issue was parking on site was a bit confusing but otherwise was a great stay and the breakfast was amazing.
Great breakfast included in our stay. Great rooms and cottages. Walking distance to amazing sunset.

This Inn was located in a great & amazingly beautiful location. The main building has a really interesting history related to Lucy M M. The beds were comfortable. Wasn’t sure about the cleanliness of the dated carpeting. The whole main building, including guest rooms could use TLC upgrading. That said, bathroom was clean & breakfast offered several hot & cold options, that were nutritious.
Room itself was tiny, but very clean and good breakfast! Lots of room to sit and read in gathering area. Enjoyed learning the history behind the hotel.
great location and clean. quick walk to the ocean view and park trails. close to all you need in Cavendish. breakfast was extremely helpful for off season

Disliked: Amenities
We stayed for two nights and the reviews when we booked our stay were good. However, it seems the inn is under new management and the facility is not very well maintained. Our room smelled horribly of air freshener so we had to air it out. Then there was no hot water so we had to wait until the next day for a shower. The breakfast room was shabby and the utensils were dirty. The location of the inn is ideal; we could walk or take a short drive to tourist spots, but the accommodation could have been much better.
Loved everything about our stay! The room was comfortable and spacious. It was nice to have breakfast included and had good options. The staff were so kind, and really made us feel welcomed.
The pool is also amazing and well maintained.
