Beauty everywhere

We enjoyed an overnight stay in this lovely Inn, with its beautiful decor, clean and cozy room, and comfortable bed. The continental breakfast gave us the chance to spend time with John, the owner, and the other guests—a friendly and fun experience. Wish we could have stayed longer, to spend time relaxing on the front porch and take another walk along the harbor, just across the street, with its astonishing display of thousands of blooming dahlias.
