8/10 Good
"A busy place, convenient location right across from the beach and pier. We stayed in a cottage which was clean, comfortable and affordable. The only complaint was we could hear the people talking in the adjoining cottage if we were in the bathroom or kitchen. Check-in/out was quick and easy."

Fin 'n Feather Waterside Inn By Kees Vacations

8/10 Good
"“Water view” is misleading - I assumed we were in the back overlooking the sound. No. We saw the parking lot, the 4 lane road, then a sliver of water. The blinds in our room do not cover the entire window edge to edge. Coffee maker- no cups. No soap in the dispenser at the sink."
