9.2/10 Wonderful! (636 reviews)

Beautiful historic inn that was redesigned for today! Friendly staff, so many common areas to explore and enjoy - front and back porches, multiple living areas, huge breakfast room all decorated in bright colors. History of the inn on display as well as books and a puzzle table. The breakfast buffet in the morning was really nice with several choices, yogurt, fruit, savory muffins and pastries. Ice available. Walk to the harbor and downtown area. Comfortable room - just a bit of traffic noise if you face the road but didn’t affect our sleep.
