The Good - the Inn is in a great spot. we could walk to everything that was worth seeing. The chowder next door is incredible, and we also found some great shepherd's pie, brick oven pizza, and Mexican close by. The nature trail down by the water was pretty nice for the kids. The Bad- we stayed in suite 3, the bed in the back was like concrete, and every time you tossed and turned... it squeaked like crazy. There is NO water to jump in anywhere. No pool and the lake is full of wildlife - I would NEVER recommend going in the summer, and we live in the keys... so that's saying something lol. The UGLY - let me preface this by saying my family does A LOT of staycations and trips to hotels, dozens per year. Hundreds since my children have been born. My husband used to be the head manager of the largest housekeeping department on the east coast for Marriott Vacation Club International for years. We leave all places putting wet towels in the bathroom, usually ***** beds, and take out all trash (anything that would make his crew's life easier, we do, it's just ingrained in our blood). When we arrived the only staff and contact we had was one manager/cleaner, that immediately was talking bad about some "one night guests that left the place a mess, but at least they tipped her ok". She seemed nice enough and we took that as just small town allure, never thought much about it again, although very unprofessional in our eyes. We did our normal respectful check out... did what we could for ease of cleaning, tipped the cleaner even (which I think should be returned), and left. IMAGINE my surprise when I woke up in the middle of the night the next night and had an email from the owner saying he had a video and pictures of damage and was charging me an extra $300 to repaint for marks on the wall (in the bedroom my husband and I stayed in mind you) and linens that were stained and could not be laundered.... WHAAATTT? never in my life have we been accused of such things. I explained how well traveled we are, and how he may need to be more present before he accuses someone of these things. I asked for the video and pictures (which he did not provide) and he just responded that while he does believe damage was done, he was refunding the charge. Which he did. I was floored, and so was my husband. If you stay here, and especially if you have children, take pictures on your way out. Maybe they need a new paint job in that suite, but it's not going to be on my dime. Not sure if it's a scam they have in place, or just bad info from his property manager, either way protect yourself. PICTURES.
