Nice classic scenic motel
We knew this location was not a full service hotel and that was exactly what we wanted. It was clean, the bed was big and comfy, plus it had a great view and walkable access to a Dunkin and two local restaurants. Very nice and helpful staff in the office. If we are ever back in the area we would love to stay again!

We checked in and was greater by a very pleasant lady who walked us to the cottage in the pouring rain to show us which was ours. It was a cute set up with table and chairs, fridge and Microwave. The beds extra comfortable. Plenty of plug outlets bed side and around the cottage. We stayed 4 nights and definitely will return.
