The property is right atop a bluff that overlooks the ocean with a private beach. The view is beautiful, location is ideal and the condo itself looked newly remodeled. The room was new and modern looking with a soothing color scheme, kitchen, and fireplace. The condo and property are lovely. The owner was also very nice and responsive.

What's not to like at the hitching Post? ( They are remodeling several of the rooms). But don't let that stay away! Staff is always pleasant and helpful in any thing you may need.

I got locked out of my room after the office was closed. I called the number on the office door and a kind gentleman quickly arrived to let me in and reassured me that he was not bothered. Clean, spacious, well appointed cabin room, gorgeous landscape and forest setting! Highly recommended!
