The Marshall Slocum is a small quaint B&B run by a young husband and wife team. They are charming, accommodating to all requests and the inn is clean and historic. If you are looking for a small charming inn, this one is for you. Down to the hanging swing on the front porch to the back deck where you can... More

Breakfast was very good with other options provided if asked for. Host was able to provide great information about the area and things to do. Beer and... More

Thank you for your feedback. We have fully remodeled this guest room this offseason, gutting the bathroom and adding new fixtures and antique oak flooring. All guest rooms have air conditioning throughout the warm season. More

This was the first time that we had stayed in an American "Inn" - we were pleasantly surprised by the quality of the service and standard of the accomodation. It is a family-run business and their attention to detail is obvious. From the personal and informative welcome to the quality of the furnishings to the freshly cooked breakfasts, they make... More

My husband and I came here for a long weekend for our 1st wedding anniversary. As a young couple my husband was a little sceptical about coming to a place that does not have a TV in everyroom. However we truly did not miss it, Marc and his wife gave us so many great suggestions on fun activities to do... More

Innkeeper is a nice guy and tries hard to make your stay a good one. House is not the grandest on the block, but the value is definitely there. It's one of those places that you sleep better in because it feels like home. The rooms are basic, the soaps are top notch. Breakfast is very pelasant and the public... More

We arrived to Marshall Slocum after a 4 hour drive and were promptly greeted by the owner, Mark. He kindly offered to help us with our bags. After settling in he went over a map with us to show us how to get to the local attractions. We were only 10min. walk from the wharf area and maybe a 15min.... More

Mark Spring, the owner and innkeeper made our long weekend more than a success. He is very knowledgable about the area, and his suggestions were helpful. he even cooked us a great breakfast. Consider a visit to the Inn.
