My husband and I stayed at The Anchorage for our anniversary. It was beautifully located on the river and very peaceful. When we wanted to go out, it was a quick drive to St. Michael's, Cambridge, and Oxford. The hosts were communicative and welcoming and the room with kitchen combo was spacious, clean and comfortable. We would definitely stay again.
Great private room, just like a studio apartment with full kitchen (no dishwasher), bath and stack washer/dryer. Well made breakfasts, friendly and accommodating hosts. Central area to all our activities - feels like we went over that bridge 100 times lol. Would definitely stay in that room again. Thanks Michelle & Woody!
My friend and I stayed here for a girls’ getaway and it was the perfect spot to relax. Woody and Michelle are incredible hosts and they greet you each morning with a delicious breakfast! We enjoyed walking around their property and sitting in the chairs down by the beach listening to the water. They have everything you need to kayak. If you want recommendations on local restaurants or activities, they will be happy to share the best places! We would love to stay here again.
