Nice staff and view from our room patio. The inn no longer provides breakfast but unfortunately it was still showing up as part of the package on Hotels.com. The rooms are average size but if you book, get the top floor as we could hear the people above us. Grounds have gardens but unfortunately needed weeding and cleaning up.

The view from the window is amazing. Unfortunately, the water does go down so having the room directly on the water goes away for a couple hours. It comes back quick though. The room was pretty clean and the bed was comfortable. We will definitely be going back to this hotel again.
