Reviews of Castle Rock CountryInn
"LOCATION, LOCATION, LOCATION! Beautiful place, very clean with delicious and generous hot breakfast! Lovely staff and grounds makes it feel like "home"!!!" - Jeanie M.
“What an amazing place! from the moment I walked in I was so comfortable, I kept needing to remind myself that this was a hotel. So warm and inviting. The view was breathtaking and so peaceful. Kim was an amazing host and so accommodating. Constantly making sure everything was ok, and we were comfortable. The breakfast each morning was delicious and while we did not get a chance to have dinner there, the smell was amazing. If someone was not sure what to do that day, Kim had a list ready to go and offered a call to coordinate times and tickets. There was a couple that had no car and she drove them herself. I am trying to plan my trip there next year!” - Adrienne D.
“Clean cozy home with beautiful view and large yard to stargaze and take in the ocean view in, anytime of the day! The manager Shane, cooked the best breakfast and had a wonderful bright personal charm. We were thankful for his local insight of places to visit and eat at along the Cabot trail.” - Francois C.
