Location great, accommodations ok.
Convenient to town & shopping. Quiet, nice view. Stair to second floor had very narrow treads and was difficult to get luggage up and down safely. Room was a nice size and had an ocean view, but it needed a little cleaning and touch up painting.

A nice overnight stay.
We had a very nice day at the Anchor House. It is within walking distance to the main part of town. Also the breakfast is very good at the 1661 house which is a slight walk up the street. Highly recommend

This property has an excellent location near ferry and town, yet is quiet and very comfortable. Peek-a-boo ocean view from room is nothing special, but everything else was spot on.

Overall, it was an great experience. It was disappointing that a $300 room, didn't have a phone, wifi and the door key didn't work. The Anchor House felt like a neglected second property.

Great Stay
We had a great stay at the Anchor House. You cannot beat the location. Having access to 1661 for breakfast and after wine/nibbles is a huge selling point. The view at breakfast is gorgeous!
