The Latch Inn is a lovely, charming place with uniquely decorated rooms and a comfortable sitting room. Breakfast is fresh and delicious, staff is attentive and very nice. The bed and pillows were comfortable. It is an older property so don’t expect brand new. There’s a great restaurant next door at the harbor for dinner.

Lovely hotel but it’s not what they describe

The hotel is a lovely old log home from ages ago. But the service isn’t up to par. We arrived and no one answered. I had to call them to open the door. We ask a few questions about the main attractions there and the employee knew nothing. I asked if he lived here and he did!! Room was pretty but it was supposed to have a beautiful water view, instead it faced a ton of boat garages and boats docked up. You couldn’t see open water anywhere. Other guests were talking about it too and just as disappointed. We’d booked this location for this reason. The breakfast was ok, but nothing to write home about. The hollandaise sauce tasted odd, the muffins were made with some strange ingredients, etc. We’ve stayed in hundreds of b&bs and we didn’t feel the staff was engaged with their customers, no wine or appetizers in the afternoon unless you paid for it. Overall a bit disappointing. Also please provide a trash can in the room. Only one tiny one in the bathroom

Quaint old BnB near to the ferry terminal.

A good option for a one night stay. The staff were friendly and helpful. A charming older building that was mostly OK apart from the bathroom which needed upgrading.

Beautiful old building that needs some TLC especially on the outside areas. Inside it could use some help with estetics such as less fake looking plastic plants. Very comfy bed Breakfast was so so;definitely not quite what we expected. Could be an amazing property with afew changes. I’m sure it was fantastic at its prime.
