Monarch Resort
We enjoyed our stay for the most part. The staff was very friendly, good parking, easy access. But, the breakfast was terrible. No meat at all, not even scrambled eggs. The only real protein was boiled eggs. No waffles, not even cereal.

Sunset Inn
The place was fine. The continental breakfast started at 8:00 that was a bit late, but there was coffee in the room. The room was nice and parking easy. The walk to see the sunset was short although the sun didn't really cooperate.

Deer Haven Inn
We had a pretty basic king room. They are stingy with towels, and no wash cloths at all. No tissue boxes. Nasty little coffee maker. One suitcase stand. A dingy occasional chair.

Bide-A-Wee Inn
Parking. Dry convenient. Pet friendly room clean and mini kitchen was great. The picnic tables were perfect for our family to gather.
