Tiny suite accessible using rickety stairs. Floor sloped in our room. Staff was nice. Nice deck to sit on in the evening. Traffic noise. No restaurants besides Tim’s in the immediate area.

The room was a good size for two people. We really wish for a small fridge to keep things cold and maybe at least one chair to sit on in the room. Staff was great, very helpful and there was no issues with the Inn

We stayed in the main Inn with a 2 room suite. Even though it was old, it had a lot of character! The bathroom floor was on a slant, but all the fixtures were updated and worked well. Nice breakfast and friendly staff.

The staff are very accommodating. This place is a bit older but has a rustic charm. Can tell it’s very well maintained. Wish there were a few more options at breakfast but it was definitely acceptable. Overall, a wonderful stay, would stay again :)
