“Nestled in the tranquil town of Ellison Bay, the inn presents a convenient location for exploring Door County. While the rooms are generously sized and the housekeeping is commendable, there are mentions of musty odors and potential mold issues that might affect air quality, so it is important to consider your health needs when booking here. Despite the friendly service, those sensitive to allergens may want to explore other options for their stay.”
