We very much enjoyed our stay. We were eloping at the lighthouse and the staff got our room ready for us early and even put a sign in the lobby for us. The bed was very comfortable. We want to stay again.

No customer service. Not having a front desk to check in and out and having to do it all online was a pain. But the hotel is beautiful.

The room that I stayed in did not have a microwave or a coffee pot in my room or in the common area. The parking was limited. The locals come to eat at the restaurant while the individuals staying at the hotel had difficulty finding a place to park. Would have been nice to have the local park in the back lot. You had to walk outside in the cold to get to the fitness center. The two dogs next door barked most of the night. The restroom could have used a place to put makeup supplies limited room on the sink. The towels need a better place to be other than on the side of the tub...what do you do with them while you are taking a shower? The local restaurants in the area were not operating because of it being off season.

the wave was great. The place was clean and cozy. The fitness center was fantastic, plenty of room and weights to do what you want. Everyone who worked there, from the front desk to the bar/ restaurant, was so friendly.
