Nautical getaway
Beautifully decorated linens are clean and fresh loved all the antiques. I had mentioned to the owner that we’d like a proper cup of tea and they provided a kettle for us instead of being dependent on the Keurig. thank you for accommodating us. The fresh pie was delicious and loved the recommendations that Deb provided us for the area and for antiquesIf we ever come back to the area, this will be a must stayJust as an aside, the beds are very high so if you have a problem with mobility, you may have trouble getting into them. I’m sure if we had asked Deb for a stool. She would’ve provided us with one.

Beautiful room
The room was beautiful, tastefully decorated with a gorgeous mural, fireplace, and linens. We appreciated the apple pie, chocolates, water and honey left for us in the room to enjoy. My kids loved the stay. We come to New England often for weekends to take a break from NYC and will definitely stay here again.

Wonderful Stay
The property was perfect for our girls weekend. The little touches made the place cozy and inviting. The Host was very easy to work with and very accommodating. I would return for sure.
Amazing property and the efforts made by Debbie and Paul to make our stay perfect were beyond our expectations! I love that the house is out of the fray, but close to everything. So easy to navigate to local points of interest, shopping, and great restaurants. The entire property is lovely and well thought out. I loved the theme of our room. They spared no expense when outfitting the room! The bed and pillows were super cozy and the linens were wonderful too. So many nice touches in the room as well. Water, coffee and tea plus a birthday card and apple pie to celebrate the reason for our visit. The room also had a beach bag and picnic basket to make it easy to enjoy the local parks and beaches without having to cart all of your things from home. The area was very safe and the room was easy to access. Debbie checked in after our arrival and answered any questions immediately. I would recommend this property to anyone...actually I already have! If I ever find myself in the area again, I will definitely stay here again!

Great stay!
Hosts were very communicative. LOVED the themed room and the hospitality. The apple pie was such a warming touch.
A most lovely accommodation! The room was decorated with whaling memorabilia and even a mural on the wall of a whaling ship. We had just visited the Mystic Maritime Museum and toured the whaling ship there. The host left wonderful doughnuts and sparkling water for us. It was very thoughtful and kind of her. We felt very welcomed.
This was such a well thought out room? The whaler's theme was great and had so many great details. Also the property was beautifully lit up and night! Debbie was so responsive and even had apple pie ready for us when we arrived! I highly suggest this place for a stay!
