“Staying here offers more than just a room; the building itself is a Civil War memorial, with period decor that enhances the experience. Its location near the ferry provides convenient access to Peak Island and the surrounding areas. I especially appreciate the thoughtful touches like board games and the ping pong table, perfect for families and those seeking a bit of leisure.”
