We recently stayed at the Inn for four nights in the Crow’s Nest, a beautiful and well appointed suite. The Inn is pristine and tastefully decorated. It is located in the beautiful and historic town of Harwich, very close to the ocean and many Cape Cod beaches. There are many fine restaurants close by, as well as quaint shops and lively taverns. Highly recommend!

This is an antique hotel . They gave us free upgrade to a suite from single room. Hotel building is old but in excellent condition. They have nice pool as well. Breakfast have good options with some on demand specialty too. And their staff was so humble and supportive. Only con is that there is some smell in sofa bed upon opening which might be there due to non usage from long time. Overall great stay here

Near perfect, really. Get an e-bike up the street and you are 10 mins from the beach property without worrying about parking. Also, Harwich is fun and charming and you are also close to the rail trail. Pool was warm and setting was bucolic.

The queen bed in our room seemed to be more of a double and it was unfortunately a detractor to the stay but we’d go again and make sure we get a room with a king bed to be more comfortable
