Excellent property - serene atmosphere, perfect welcome from friendly manager. Greeted with true warmth and given an informational tour of room. Something many properties miss. The room was excellent, generous amount of towels (including beach towels) which is really good. Hot tub, (well - cool tub - but great for a cooling dip.) Can see why place is so highly rated. Say hello to Spencer the dog from me.

Quaint Lodge Style Hotel- Close to Everything
My dad and I had a great 2 night stay here. The owners were so tentative and friendly and they gave our stay a real personal care. The hotel is quaint, rooms are comfortable, clean, and beautifully decorated for a real lodge feel. We loved the access/use of the outdoor general kitchen and the hotel's location in this part of town made it quiet and private, yet close to walk to the beach and everything in town.

Stay here!!!
Stay here! It’s a must! It’s your own private oasis. I loved the private feel, right next to the beach, the patio and amazing breakfast. The family is super nice and available to answer any questions!

Another lovely and inexpensive stay! The Good Life Lodge was clean, fresh, new, convenient, and classy. This place left me wanting for not. Upon waking and coming outside, we found a fresh pot of coffee and the patio freshly mopped. The house breakfasts were inexpensive, generous, delicious, and plenty of fresh fruit. It's a short distance to the beach, far enough away to be peaceful and free of the touristy mania, but close enough so as not to be a hinderance. Grocery store around the corner, laundry a few blocks away, it's the details, and they've nailed it.
