The Chequit

The Chequit

8/10 Good
"Room small but very functional, well decorated, bath modern, and very upscale. First night the attendant was wonderful. That was on the 18th. Next day, we had a leak at the shower because the molding on shower door was not working correctly, and the floor got wet. Staff was not really very responsive to that. Had a wonderful area for eating at the restaurant with nice fire pits, very nice with an overview of the water. Nice porch to be able to sit and read in the morning or many people were doing work. One annoyance was that one of the guests was having his phone on speaker while he had a business meeting and he spoke totally out loud, and was very distracting and basically rude. He should’ve taken that conversation elsewhere and taken a walk or gone back to his room. Staff did not feel that there was any need to say anything to him. “It’s a public space” Also, there was an area right near the parking lot that was right adjacent to the building that was totally mowed in full of weeds, that really would’ve been nice if it was cleared up. In all we would return, it was very pleasant otherwise. Nice view of the harbor small but nice. And located really conveniently right by the ferry."

10/10 Excellent
"Ingrid and Bobby’s home is like a little magical oasis. You’re surrounded by natural beauty with deer wondering about and a pond filled with little turtles. The beds are so comfortable! Better than a hotel! The home looks small on the outside but there’s more than enough room on the inside with lots of different areas to hang inside and out. We stayed there with our three children and they spent hours and hours in the salt water pool. They have speakers all around that you can connect to. Ingrid responded to every message immediately and check in was seamless. Highly recommend! We hope to come back next year"
