I like how it’s situated close to the water and the ability to walk to restaurants and grocery store. I didn’t feel comfortable that the deadbolt didn’t work on the entry door or that the curtains didn’t close enough for privacy. As a single female alone I felt uneasy at night. Overall wonderful place to stay. Great staff. Thank you.

Pretty views and nearby restaurants. I suggest bringing shower toiletries in case they run out and earplugs if you are a light sleeper.

We have found memories from past visits going back 70 years. We were not disappointed. Minor issues might irritate a perfectionist, but for us it was a great stay.

We stayed in a bungalow. Clean, very comfortable bed and bedding. Plenty of new clean towels. A little more rustic than we anticipated, no screens on windows and no air conditioning so it was pretty warm inside when we checked in. It does cool down fairly quickly so with the oscillating van they provided and the ceiling fan we slept well. Be ready for quick temperature changes in the shower. If you want river/beach access it would be a great choice.

Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities
Filthy construction site and dumpster outside our door. Thankfully, the hotel immediately offered us a refund when we saw the state of the property. Still waiting for a refund of our reward points from Expedia.

Liked: Property conditions & facilities
Overall the room was quite cozy and charming. However, the seating in the kitchenette was in a state of disrepair and potentially dangerous with sharp nails exposed when placing your weight on the "bench". Also the shower became scalding hot whenever someone else on the property flushed or used the cold water(?). These 2 criticisms are worth mentioning mostly because of the luxury level prices we paid for our unit. For the $360 per night cost for our stay, we should have had a room that was not in disrepair. Also worth mentioning the "campers" on the property were quite rowdy and loud during our stay. Obviously a great location right by Johnson's Beach.

Liked: Room comfort
Cute spot, terrible for sleeping
I wanted to love this place and it has a lot going for it, especially the location and variety of accommodation options. Unfortunately, in our historic cabin the mattress and bed frame was terrible and almost impossible to sleep on. Such a bummer because the parachute bedding was great!! You can also hear everything your neighbors are doing as the walls are super thin, but a sound machine can help with that. We ended up leaving a night early instead of facing another sleepless night. Super cute location and everyone was very nice and accommodating. I would definitely visit again if I knew the mattress got an upgrade.

It has been many years since I’ve stayed at Johnson’s Beach (I still frequent the beach yearly) & the bungalows have clearly been updated. The bed was comfortable. However, the water temp in the shower fluctuated between cold & scalding hot. My left arm was red due to the hot temp. I chose not to bathe my 6 year old as I was concerned the same would happen to her. Our bungalow did not have an area rug as shown on the website photos & I think having one would’ve greatly helped with the cold morning temperature as the flooring has open slits allowing cold air to seep in. There was a wall heater, however it did not seem to be working. I ran the scalding hot shower to help heat the room. All in all, I would stay here again, you can’t beat the proximity, but I would be more prepared for the cold & would probably use the camping showers (hopefully they don’t have the same issue).
