10/10 Excellent
"The property was very nice and close to everything. The hot tubs were amazing after all the walking and hiking."

Sand Castle Inn

Sand Castle Inn

10/10 Excellent
"As a pregnant solo traveler, I felt safe enough to sleep alone at night which usually is a huge concern for me. The room was clean and it was fully loaded with amenities (mini refrigerator, microwave, TV that had YouTube and Netflix already downloaded). The key pad to the door was also not a typical key pad which felt more secure. Would definitely recommend and would definitely stay again."

"Very well maintained, spacious rooms, comfortable beds, nicely decorated and convenient close to nice places for food. You would like the ground floor unlike any other place. Don’t take out luggage from cars until check in, you will drive close to your room and then take the luggage there.."
