We thoroughly enjoyed our 2-night stay over the Labour Day long weekend. The place is very comfortable, well maintained, and conveniently located — just about a kilometre from the beach and town centre. It’s nicely furnished and has all the facilities you need for a relaxing stay. A great spot for a getaway!
