“A little slice of heaven”
Absolutely love this spot. The rooms are so comfortable, the food is excellent, the staff are super pleasant and the views are calming. I only stay one night, since it's an overnight stop en route to Monhegan Island, but I think it's worth a trip just to stay here. Highly recommend!!
