Cute little place with a great location, the bikes are a big plus to do some exploring with. Restaurants in easy walking distance, and a free public boat ramp across the street that isn't the least bit crowded.

We loved our stay here! So easy to walk to Saint Mary's Park, Historic Downtown and to local restaurants. We didn't use the hot tub, but it was nice to have that option. We will absolutely stay here again.
