This place is a dump. Room was filthy and smelly. Recommendation : Pray, Pray, Pray for a category 5 hurricane; collect the insurance; then plan for a different vocation.

Room we stayed in while obviously had a renovation, most things didnt work properly. Lights very dark, gad to us phone lights to help see, sink drainage extremely slow, shower water tap installed incorrectly. Waste a lot of 'hot' water which was really cold water on hot water setting. Beach setting was lovely though.

Generally clean. Bathroom ceiling paint flaking and had the appearance of mold. Bathroom sink drained slowly. Buffet breakfast below average. Better to go out for breakfast. Dining room average for dinner.

I thought this was a lovely place. Beautiful beach area. a little dated but very clean and staff was very friendly at check in. Dog friendly which we liked also. Very spacious room. Bed was a little hard for me but I would stay here again. Very convenient location for our hikes.

I like that it is on the water with easy access. I didn't like that there was no fan in the bathroom, that the outside light illuminated the bathroom at night. Closing the bathroom door was not an option for us. I would stay again.

The lady on the front desk was very friendly and accommodated our request to change rooms at the last minute. Good food and service in the pub for supper. Unfortunately no lunch service available. The room was clean and had some upgrades but is showing its age. Beds were comfortable but the walls were thin in our building.

Beautiful setting, but hard beds
Other than the beds, which were worse than old university dorms - like sleeping on plywood - it's a nice place. The service was pleasant, and it was very clean, although it smelled strongly of bleach. The setting was lovely, right on the ocean. We appreciated the little kitchen suite.

Check in went very smoothly. The room was very outdated. Fridge made a terrible noise. Bed was low & uncomfortable. Taps were backwards. Water temp was hard to control. Don’t recommend for the price

We stayed at the Romantic Cabin. The cabin was at the beach. The scenery was breathtaking. We saw a seal in the water. The cabin has been renovated and cozy. The site is rustic. The staff is over the top friendly.

Our room was comfortable but has been well used. I found the bed ok the first night but hard the second. Breakfast was good but cost extra. I’d give Glenghorm 6.5/10.
