Pine Inn
We love the Pine Inn! It has historic charm and coziness especially during the holidays. We have stayed here a few times and they never disappoint! Only thing we miss is a small coffee pot in the rooms so we could make a small coffee before heading out for breakfast.

Normandy Inn
Our stay was pleasant. The Inn is clean. Their rooms are nothing fancy, but clean and comfortable. The breakfast is your typical continental breakfast, nothing fancy. I believe they offer cottages as well that would be worth staying at as well. Their location is perfect and walkable to the beach ...
