FogCatcher Inn

FogCatcher Inn

10/10 Excellent
"We loved our room with the windows overlooking the ocean. It was the perfect place to sit and relax. It was a large room so plenty of space to spread out. We loved the alcove with the coffee station, microwave and refrigerator. I know it’s difficult with the ocean weather and individual pane windows, but it would have been nice to have those a little cleaner so you could see out better"
