Guest Reviews
- linda (10/5): - Very clean, quaint property . Great atmosphere.
- William (8/5): - The pillow is a bit soft/ flat. Hoping to have option for firmer pillows. Also having a microwave in the room or a small shared kitchen will be very helpful especially during the kitchen/ restaurant off day on Monday and Tuesday.
- Suzanne (8/5): - There should be parking designated for customers staying at the Inn. The staff were very nice and friendly. We enjoyed our room especially the original wood mouldings and old shutters. We enjoyed the restaurant and the entertainment intent was excellent.
- Selina (10/5): - Accommodation old but nice and clean and updated bathroom, just little noisy because our room was over the kitchen fans , but still enjoyed our time
- Nancy (10/5): - Beautiful view from our deck!
- Caely (8/5): - Great place to stay, clean, fabulous waterfront views.
- Michael (10/5): - Beautiful location, great staff and service. Room was clean and comfortable. Could use a new shower head - just a dribble of water comes out of the shower.
- Sharon (10/5): - Beautiful room, with a stunning balcony right outside the room. Staff were excellent & they had a band playing that were great!

- darcy (10/5): - Stayed in a simple room with a queen bed and bathroom. View from the large deck was worth the visit.
- Neil (10/5): - What a gem! The rooms were above the excellent restaurant and the shared balcony overlooked Hubbards Cove with its colourful houses and moored boats. Both sunsets were superb. Might be noisy on their live music nights.

- Dean (2/5): - I booked the wrong dates, can I get a refund or credit?
- Janice (10/5): Vintage Charm! - This was a wonderful stay from start to finish! The inn is not nee and shiny but it IS old snd charming. The chef was super cool. Christine the manager (owner?) was great. She was accommodating, always helpful, and truly a special host. Becca our waitress was great too and deserves praise as well. Our room was cute and had all the necessities one needed. I'd DEFINITELY return!
- Margaret (8/5): - Lovely position exactly as it appeared on their website. Our room met our needs well. Disappointed that the restaurant and bar were closed on the Monday & Tuesday of our visit. We arrived Sunday left Tuesday. Unfortunately our mussels were over cooked but the delightful serving staff made up for this.
- Wayne (10/5): - Beautiful inn with amazing views of the water from the decks. We woke up to a glorious morning and enjoyed coffee in the room with a view!
- Nikki (8/5): - The food was very pricy for the portion size and the parking could use some improvement.
- Jim (10/5): - Setting was outstanding, we were not told the the restaurant was closed until the day before we checked in. Staff was very helpful when checking in, looked for a place to have dinner because of the holiday everything in Hubbard was closed.
- Robert (10/5): Very nice & right on the bay! - Very nice inn above a very nice restaurant! Very nice room, only drawbacks were no table/desk or microwave, frig. Shower was small but functional, no issues. Great bed! Fantastic view!!!
- Patty (10/5): - The inn was fabulous. Beautiful clean room with lovely antique furniture. A huge deck overlooking the barbour right outside our room. The food in the restaurant was delicious and the staff were great. We will definately go back...
- Kevin (10/5): - The view from deck was just beautiful. Room was so cute and fresh.
- Zoe (4/5): - Lovely location and a great view, but not a great stay. The fire alarm went off multiple times while we were sleeping. The sheets were old and the elastic all stretched, so that if you moved, the fitted sheet came off the bed. The room had limited supplies. The roll of toilet paper had 1/8" left, and the extra roll in the drawer was the same. We spent close to $2000, and had to go ask for a roll of toilet paper because the room was never cleaned during our stay. Nothing major, and the view was gorgeous, but enough little things that will cause us to stay else where next time we are on the south shore.
- Robin (10/5): - Dinner with a view. Private terrace for guests overlooking the bay
- Deborah (10/5): - This location was off the beaten path but a nice little gem with a picturesque water view, restaurant and small marina. The staff were friendly, the accommodations comfortable and clean for an older facility.
- David P (10/5): - This property is a gem! Exceeded expectations in all categories. Management made the experience as if you were friends visiting at their summer house. Food was perfect and the view a painting every hour of the day. A must if you are within 100 miles!
- Brenda (10/5): - Excellent location on the water. Able to have dinner there. Dinner was good .
- Robert (10/5): - The owners actually take care of this place. We are welcomed with open arms, the room was clean. The area was clean. The restaurant was great service and good food we would go back.
- Tina (10/5): - Great place, room was beautiful, comfortable and clean with an amazing view. We also ate in the restaurant and it was fantastic. We attended the Shore Club and it was quick walk from Inn which was great Overall a great experience
- Lawrence (10/5): - Great place to stay! Awesome atmosphere and accommodations.
- Hollie (10/5): - Beautiful inn really enjoyed our stay
- c (4/5): - It has very basic rooms, washroom are in need of updates, the room is noisy, shutters do not close properly. The property has great views lf the water and parking. We will not be returning
- John (10/5): - Awesome place down by the bay!
- Teresa (10/5): - Excellent!! We loved our room. The view was amazing! The food at the restaurant was Excellent! The staff were very kind and accommodating. Would highly recommend the property. Terry and Warren Giese
- Connie (6/5): - Old house conversion lots of stairs everywhere Not for anyone with mobility issues
- Tim (6/5): - The location of the property is absolutely gorgeous with beautiful views of the bay. However our room was small with the bed being jammed into one corner. That means someone has to crawl over their partner if you need to get up in the night. The bathroom needs some updating as well. It sounded like we were on a tugboat in the bathroom! So we must have been over a huge fan in the kitchen. Also, a bar fridge sitting on the floor?? Not always easy to find a staff member for assistance. They seemed all in on the restaurant- too bad they don’t offer a Sunday brunch.
- Pamela (10/5): - Fabulous shore side Inn and the restaurant is excellent, Chef is amazing! The only caveat, the stairs to the suites, but, so worth it. I highly recommend
- Paul (10/5): - Incredible having a restaurant/bar on site that allows for music, dancing, etc. The VIEWS are incredible - what a gorgeous bay! The decsk to sit and have a cofee are unreal.
- Eric (8/5): - Nice place to relax.
- Cynthia (10/5): - The location was spectacular! This quaint Inn has all the feels for a restful stay. Will Be back!
- Carroll Ann (10/5): Overall pleased - Overall i was pleased and my fiance and both agreed that we would return. Some small things; seemed to be confusion about check in desk. Difficult to find a reception area. It seemed a bit disorganized. Something else was dicerning was at one point during wedding reception for my Nephew and his new bride, there was a line up for the bar and the counter person had there back to them. Its just small stuff but perhaps something the staff can work on.
- Shehnaz (2/5): - Not good rooms not good beds it’s like mid ninty
- Verified traveler (10/5): - Very quaint, lovely accommodations - lots of character!
- Verified traveler (6/5): - We were drawn to this property because of its location. It has a wonderful location that offers lovely views over the water. However, the interior is a little disappointing. I would call the decor "early seniors residence". Our room was one of the smaller rooms, with a bed tucked into a corner, which really should never happen, unless the room is for one person. Also, it had a toilet in what is just too small a space, with a tiny little shower. The only thing I can say is that the bed was reasonably comfortable, until you have to climb out the bottom, because you're sleeping against a wall. There is what is called a "continental breakfast". This consisted of grocery store muffins and tangerines, tea bags and a Nespresso machine - not impressive. There's a kitchen downstairs - why not bake a batch of fresh muffins to offer guests? As for the restaurant, it has a great location with views over the bay, but not much can be said for the creativity or adaptability of the kitchen. The kitchen didn't seem able or willing to adapt to dietary restrictions. The menu has nothing in the way of vegetarian, vegan or non-dairy options. I understand that it is still a minority of people who eat this way, so I ordered a spinach salad, hold the bacon, the egg and cheese, hoping they would replace the above with other veggies. It takes very little skill to make a salad. I got a pile of spinach with one sliced raw mushroom. Not good enough! The restaurant needs to move into the 21st century!
- Verified traveler (8/5): - Room was very clean, staff was very friendly, dining room is excellent.
- Allan (10/5): - Amazing view, nice quaint stay. A little pricey but no regrets.
