Our guesthouse is the entire first floor of the carriage house. In 1897, the building housed the horse drawn carriage. Since then it’s been remodeled and houses the inn. It's quiet, cozy, and feels like you're at a beach-side cottage. The quarters include a bedroom, kitchen, bathroom w/ walk-in shower, laundry, living/dining room, and patio w/ a privacy gate. These amenities aren't shared. The Carriage House also has another guest space. Both are independent including separate entries.
