The staff is out by a certain time. We tried dropped off the key card before 11am and there was no one in the office and no sign how to check out.. We didnt know that there was no AC in the room but there was a small fan attached to the wall and a fan in the closet. We were able to open windows for fresh air but the windows DID NOT lock. It is very easy to open from the outside. The room was nice and clean and had everything we needed. The location is perfect and right next to the beach. We liked how private it was.

The property was clean, well equipped and the staff were friendly and allowed to checkin early. The only comment is the heater, it makes an annoying noise every 10mins that kept waking us up.

We were pleasantly surprised when we walked into the studio cottage. It was very clean, kitchen was well stocked with nice quality dishwater & cookware. You can tell the care that was put into everything in the space, nothing was old or outdated. We will definitely be staying here again.

We really enjoyed our stay at this hotel. The property was clean, well-maintained, and located in a very convenient spot. One of the highlights was the lovely area by the lake – perfect for relaxing or just enjoying the view. Our room was a bit noisy since it was right next to the road, but the staff was incredibly helpful and responsive. They quickly offered a quieter room for us. We appreciated the excellent service. Would definitely stay again!

Terrible Start, Amazing End!

I have stayed her 5-6 times. It took us 45 minutes to get into our room as we did a late check in and the key card wouldn’t work. I was able to get a hold of their after hours line and they were out in 10 minutes. We thought the room was warm because we had been outside. Unfortunately our heater was broken and would only stay on 2-15 minutes before the pilot would go out if I could get it on. There was a sign on the thermostat that said to turn off and wait a minute and turn back on. I barely slept. There was no space heater so we just had to tough it out as I eventually fell asleep not being able to get up every 10-20 minutes. I reached out to the staff and they apologized and told us they would let the owner know and upgraded us to an amazing place by the lake. What an amazing view!!! We were pleasantly surprised and were so grateful to Brian and Justin for turning the terrible start of our trip around!!! Now I only want lakeside!!!

Beautiful property. Peaceful stay. Read the fine print though and make sure if you book it expecting beach front that you be careful to select it…we almost didn’t get a beach front we were expecting because of expedias description but staff was awesome and worked with us. Beautiful comfy cozy place to stay

Great little place. Had everything I needed, and was clean! Would definitely stay again. My only two issues: stove wasn’t working so they provided a small hot plate, which was fine. And I went to the front desk at 5PM, but they were closed already (said hours were until 5:30PM). Overall would definitely recommend.
