The private beach with kayaks was an unexpected bonus to a stay that matched our expectations. The staff was very friendly. The property is lovely and it is clear that a lot of care went into setting up a welcoming environment. My kids loved the giant TV and the memory foam mattress was so comfortable!
More than 2 mugs in the room and a kitchen trash can would be helpful.

The bed and pillows were very comfortable. The shower was clean, looked nice, and was consistently warm with no unwanted fluctuation in temperature. The nautical theme was spot on for the location. All amenities were covered, and the room even included a self-serve coffee maker with coffee and tea options. The room itself was perfect for 1-2 people; it was cozy, but not cramped. The staff was very friendly and responsive.
The main concern was safety. The doors had one doorknob lock on the outside and a chain, but no deadbolt. We also stayed during a colder month, so it was very cold in the room, especially on the floors. The heater could not keep the room warm due to a moderate/strong draft coming from underneath the door. However, the provided bedding kept the two of us plenty warm. Our sleep wasn't affected by the cold. Finally, the entrance from the road (and the parking lot, too) is a dirt road. Normally, this isn't much of an issue besides patches of mud, but during the winter months ice/snow and dirt roads don't mix well. So, if you plan to stay in the winter, know that the parking lot will be difficult to traverse without slipping.

Very cute, nicely updated with its own old charm. Bed was very comfy and my favorite part was the little table and chairs outside. Heat and air conditioning work well.
Due to the weather it would have been nice to watch the TV channels promised, with it being such a small room watching movies is a big plus. Small dislike there was no stirrers for our coffee and we love coffee especially in the morning.

loved the rooms and the location
i wished housekeeping would at least vacuum and make the beds when they come in. the one thing they need to at least update is the door handles, they’re old and i almost got locked in the bathroom because i couldn’t get it to turn.

It was a perfect place to stay. It has everything you need. It is very family friendly and I would highly recommend and would return! Thank you so much.
I would only suggest perhaps adding a folding chair in the room (I stayed in the room with a queen bed) and maybe a pull bar in the bathroom either at the toilet or in the shower for those that are older and have difficulties getting up.

Anchor Inn was SO cute and cozy. As they describe, it's definitely rustic but they had great outdoor amenities, a close walk to the water and a close drive to everything we wanted to visit. It was perfect for a last minute fall wine weekend.

the retrofitted cabins were really cool, they did a great job renovating them while keeping their charm, had everything you could need for a long weekend getaway next to the water. loved that they had grills, kayaks, a beach, and best of all a campfire.
nothing really. great stay.

This is a family inn. Locally owned and operated. We liked the option of a picnic table and grill available just outside the room. There is an outside seating area with bonfire option both there and on the beach. Nice play set for younger children. Where else do you get Corn Hole as an option while you stay overnight. Rooms had fridge and microwave. And charging station for phone or electronics.
Rooms are a little worn but the new owners are making updates. Parking is a bit confusing.

nice location, private small beach, free kayak and lawn chairs to enjoy the beach
the bed was VERY soft and the springs made a lot of noise every move you make. Our room was VERY small. No sitting area, just a bed and bathroom.

Cute room, friendly staff, good location
The only thing we don't like is that the bathroom was very small. The shower was almost impossible to use due to size.
