Fodor's Review:

Sara Shlosser-O'Reilly's B&B has spark -- and a variety of rooms ranging from affordable singles to nice-size quarters with canopied king-size beds and harbor views. In one especially pretty setting, the blue-ribbon pattern of the wallpaper matches the cushions and canopy: it's like living in a nicely wrapped gift. Pros: Central location, pretty decor, heavenly baking aromas, garden for lounging. Cons: Usual town noises, Children's the only nearby beach, tiny breakfast room (opt for the garden).
