Wonderful stay, nice cozy room .. love that they served breakfast .. felt like staying at home away from home. Only complaints are TV was hard to use and having issues watching anything, and could use blind on window in door facing bed. Glad to have stayed. Joyce the housekeeper was so sweet

The property was in the best location for my needs. I just wish check-in was earlier than 3pm. I have a 4 hr drive so like to leave my house relatively early. Check out is 11am. You would think the room could be ready sooner than it is.

Good enough!

We had the smallest room, Brass Lady, which was fine since we really just needed a bedroom. It had a nice private porch and decent bathroom. The communal kitchen area was very nice and the hostess, Joyce, was a real treasure. We enjoyed her hospitality and conversation. Walk to the beach was easy and walk to pier for sunset was easier. We would stay here again.
