"The Refuge Inn is well located if you are going to spend time at the National Seashore. The rooms are comfortable, nothing fancy but clean and well maintained. The breakfast included with the room wasn’t the most delicious but it was edible."

"OK breakfast. Check in took forever. The person behind the counter could not multitask or answer questions “out of order.”"

"Excelent!!!!! "

"Breakfast, nice room on the bay pier was nice on the bay . The wedding party took up the parking on Saturday, they should have parked in front of the building, they took residents parking in front of our rooms. Breakfast was very good the girl was awesome making the breakfast friendly & very accommodating was abke can take it to go or back to room , not enough tables to sit inside the lobby & there were outside pic nic tables nice by the water & pool but wet from rain & dew& the gnats were awful so couldn’t eat outside."

"The property is beautiful, well-kept, and clean, and the staff is very helpful and friendly."

"I had extremely high hopes based on the initial correspondence with the renter. He was very responsive and even went above and beyond to address my concerns prior to our stay. He went so far as to send me video of the "private beach" access as this was the primary reason for us booking the location and I was concerned about just how much shoreline we'd have access to. Prior to our arrival he warned us to bring bug spray as the temps were warming up and they were becoming more prevalent and I thanked him for the heads up. Little did I know how bad the bug infestation would be. Upon arrival we were greeted by a swarm of biting flies. I mean they literally surrounded our car the minute we pulled up and continued to be an issue anytime we were outside. Upon checking in and inspecting the home I noticed an abundance of spider webs (with spiders in them) and what appeared to be rodent feces in the utensils drawer as well as the cabinets with pots and pans. In both bathrooms the poorly fitted toilet seats were so loose they practically came off the toilets and we had to hover to avoid sitting directly on the toilet bowl. I advised him of this and sent pictures asking about the feces. He responded that it was not rodent feces and offered 10% off for the bugs. Also we did not get to enjoy the beach because no amount of Deet or Citronella can combat a swarm of biting flies. Please deep clean the home and treat it for pests prior to renting again."

"Staff was very pleasant and friendly. Establishment was clean and quiet; very relaxing"

"I’ll start with the positives: the staff were friendly and the location is excellent—right next to Captain Zack’s, Island Creamery, and bike rentals. ​Unfortunately, we couldn't stay. We checked in at 11:00 PM for a two-night stay and immediately found significant hygiene issues in our room. The sheets had large yellow stains, visible hair, and concerning brown spots. Additionally, the exterior door appeared to have been kicked in previously, which raised safety concerns. ​We checked out within 30 minutes of arrival. While the staff offered a different room, we no longer felt comfortable staying at the property. We asked for a refund for the second night only, which was declined. Given that we didn't use the room and reported the issues immediately, we hope management would reconsider and provide a partial refund, but unfortunately not. I see a lot of other reviews saying how clean the property is. That unfortunately was not our experience."

"This property is clean, comfortable and a good value. I was traveling through state one night and would do it again."
