We had a very enjoyable stay at The Fresh Coast Inn. Our two-queen room was spacious, comfortable, and provided plenty of room to relax after a day of exploring. We especially appreciated the historic character of the inn—it has a unique charm and personality that you don’t find in many modern hotels. The only downside during our stay was that barking dogs in nearby rooms were occasionally disruptive. Aside from that, our experience was very positive, and we would gladly consider staying here again

Probably the cleanest, most well organized unique place we've ever stayed in. We arrived late and left before breakfast service to catch the ferry, but staff was super responsive over text. It took me a second to realize the coffee for the coffee maker was in a lovely little glass jar and was probably the best in-room coffee I've had in the US. Also really loved the Roku TVs. Hope to be back at a time when we can enjoy the rest of the property.

The inn was full of old world charm. We enjoyed the spacious room #2 with king sized bed and newly remodeled bathroom. Using the fireplace created a cozy atmosphere. The room was very clean and comfortable. The staff was very friendly. The breakfast was plentiful and delicious. Parking is conveniently located just outside by the yard area, which looked so nice, but did not get to experience, due to weather. Thank you for the wonderful accommodations! We hope to return!
