Great location!

My friends and I stayed here for beach to bay relay this year and was big enough to fit us all. Great location to restaurants and town. Short walk to Whitecap beach. Only things are we would have liked more pillows and blankets and the mattresses were firmer than I like. But great option if needing to fit multiple people for a short beach weekend.
