10/10 Excellent
"We had a great two night stay! Very close to oak island… the tour was well worth it if you are a fan of the treasurer hunting show😊. Very convenient to Mahone Bay and Lunenburg. We travel with two Goldendoodle’s and everyone was very pet friendly! We were able to watch NFL football on the big screen and the nightly entertainment was a bonus! Overall great experience! We hope to return some day and will definitely recommend this spot!"

"The room is big with a nice view on the water front. It is very clean. The bed is extremely high but confortable. The location is perfect, close to everything. The only negative point is the bathroom. It really needs to be renovated, especially the toilet. It dors not flush easily."
