Inn By The Harbor

10/10 Excellent
"This was such a wonderful place to stay. I had a great night sleep and a great breakfast. My room was perfect! The bed was so comfortable, and the kitchen was so big and had everything one would need for an extended stay. Everything was great! I wish I had another day there. I will be sure to stay here again on my next trip. It was a 10 out of 10."
