Outdoor dining was wonderful. Fire pit was relaxing. Pool was perfect. Room was above shipping area with some noise, but fine, though long walk. Next time I will request a quiet room facing water.

Most beautiful setting. Historical - including interior design. Excellent Pool Area. Nice people. Good special events over the season. And that long covered front porch - just fabulous!
Marilyn, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Beautiful hotel, staff was very nice, gorgeous views. Bugs were inescapable (due to being on water not due to cleanliness of hotel) making balcony unusable and spending time outside unenjoyable. Hotel very clean but pesky bugs throughout.
