This inn has key-less doors, so make sure you memorize your codes for both the front door and your room. The front door needs to be locked manually, and your room door stay locked, so burn those numbers into memory or on the mobile phone you have with you. I stayed at the Porter Queen room - nice wood floors, has an A/C unit & heat for supplemental cooling/heating, bed is nice and comfortable without bugs or it being too hard or soft, mini-kitchen was nice for warming up leftovers or what nots, bathroom was basic and did the job nicely - no shampoo or conditioner, but a bar of soap is provided. Towels were provided in decent abundance. Room is nice, albeit a bit spartan. Note that I did the reservation via online, but had to talk to the owner/administrator. I forgot her name, but she was pleasant, and got it paid via credit card over the phone without issue. No one is staffed at the house, and is all dealt with "remotely" - but this works well as I arrived to the house clean, the email instructions very clear, and the room ready. Nearest restaurant or stores are about 5 minutes away if you want food, sundries, etc. I brought leftovers from lunch and that did me fine for the rest of the night. No free breakfast or what nots, unless if you arranged to purchase a snacking "package" with your reservation. Parking for 4-5 vehicles are available in front of the house, cannot comment on the lot a block away. Definitely a good place for some piece of quiet, isolation, or a 2-4 days stay for a couple. No one was apparently there during my stay, so cannot comment if the walls are too thin or if house rules are respected or not. Mobile signals are decent for Verizon, Sprint, and T-Mobile, so no problems with your calls or mobile web browsing. Anyone using the antiquated WiMaxx (Clear & Sprint) will NOT have coverage. Onsite Wifi is available and free, though I could not connect to it for whatever reason. Will come back again! (and sorry for the tl;dr)

The Duneswalk Inn has the charm of a B&B with the privacy of a hotel…read more Me and my husband booked two nights during the week in August for a romantic getaway. I was a little reluctant to stay at a historic mansion, thinking that "historic" might actually mean "run down." That was not the case here at all. The interior is classic, yet modern. We stayed in the Queen Porter Room and it was lovely, quaint and well designed. Our bed was comfortable, and clean. We loved the kitchenette, equipped with a fridge, microwave, toaster, coffee maker and sink. I love that the proprietors send you a code for the front door and the room door ahead of your stay so you don't have to bother with checking in at a front desk. It really made us feel like we were guests at a country home rather than just customers checking into a hotel. The only downsides: paper thin walls and spotty wireless. We could only get reception in the lounge area on the second floor, but we weren't spending a lot of time online anyway. On our second night there were quite a lot of children running around and screaming. So while it's perfect for a romantic getaway, keep in mind that a lot of families are renting rooms in the summer. Other than that, we loved it! We definitely plan on staying here if we visit again.

If you're looking for something negative, the breakfast was marginal, and that's being generous. There wasn't much of it, what was available was not high quality, and once it's gone they don't replenish. So, I'd recommend getting to breakfast early and not setting your standard very high. But that being said, the rest of the stay was pretty great. I'm guessing they don't do a tremendous amount of business this time of year, and they appear to be working with a skeleton crew. But for me that was the draw. I got to swim each morning by myself and there certainly wasn't any parties going on keeping me up at night. The few people they did have working here were super helpful and kind. Best Westerns are typically hit or miss. They are either a Best Western or a Worst Western. This one would lean hit. It's not new, and like me in many ways it is showing its age. But who cares? I had a good stay and I'd certainly recommend.

Breakfast had waffles, bagels, cereal, and I believe eggs. The waffles were always good. I enjoyed the pool several times. I absolutely loved relaxing in the room spa tub after long days of hiking in the chilly air. Each room also had a small balcony on the floor I was on. The only downside is the walls are quite thin. I was privy to an entire argument (while I was trying to nap) as well as the ensuing "make up". Needless to say, my nap ended pretty quick and I headed back out to explore more of the area. Overall, the hotel was lovely and I would stay here again.

Breakfast had the usual hotel breakfast options (with better eggs) but ran out of milk and hot water wasn't working for the instant oatmeal. The halls and common areas were comfortable but our room was very humid and smelled wet despite the a/c running and fan on. Fairly outdated and furniture and fixtures are pretty beat up. Beds were comfortable but pillows were lumpy. Pool and sauna were standard hotel experience. It's fairly charming despite the negatives. This place kind of has a monopoly on places to stay near the dunes so the price is high - definitely not comparable with the experience but options are limited. Would probably still stay here again.
