Carol was the sweetest and showed us around the property when checking in. We were able to borrow beach chairs as well as she always had fresh baked sweets every day. One of the best stays we’ve had.

Carole and Jeff are lovely hosts and inn keepers. The room we stayed in was very nice including the very large jet tub. This is our 3rd consecutive year staying there and every time has been fantastic - the breakfast is super, the snacks and everything in general. We highly recommend this as your next stay on the Cape!
