"The upstairs unit where we stayed is perfect for two people. There is a sofa bed so can sleep more. It's very warm and welcoming. Beautiful views, quiet, the wood ceiling in the bedroom makes it such an inviting and cozy space. Jeff and Leslie are very friendly and made us feel at home. The walk into town is delightful. The fishing ladder at the end of the block makes for great entertainment. You won't want to leave!"

"We went to enjoy the beauty of the area and felt the hotel reflected it as well. We could sit and look out at the bay at breakfast. The room was great as a resting place for the night after biking, shopping, seeing a movie at the local theater, and visiting the sandy beach watching the sun go down."
