Location was close to ferry and restaurants. Room was clean and beds comfy. The garden area was nice for relaxing with a drink. Breakfast was very nice, not the normal hotel breakfast. We enjoyed our stay one night before catching ferry

The Summers Inn provides a very quiet and comfortable setting. The rooms are simply furnished and clean. The "secret" garden is serene. The use of local products for both hygiene and breakfast meals is a pleasant, quality touch. The staff are friendly and helpful. The location is close to town and the beaches, yet far enough away to provide a calm atmosphere. The week-end breakfast is thoughtfully presented, efficiently served and delicious. This is an excellent place to for adults to stay.

Clean and private. Quaint, beautifully maintained grounds. They properly captured the mid century vibe that we love. Door front parking was great. The “library” was lovely, as well as beautiful private koi pond area. We’re already planning our next visit!

Convent, clean, nice outdoor sitting areas including coy pond and a pergola. Good breakfast. Located right at the beginning of the historic home district. If I was not comparing a motel to nice hotels, I would give this place a 5. I would stay here again.

Enjoyed our stay. The property is a bit old and shows its age. However the location was great and it was very quiet. The included breakfast was a nice touch.
