Can we get an early check-in?

Guests who book direct have first priority for early check-in requests. Learn more about booking direct!
What about a late checkout?
Check-out time is 11:00 a.m. and late check-out requests are subject to approval. The option to extend your checkout to 1:00 p.m. for only $35 is available during check-in.

Do you have parking?
We offer free limited parking for small to midsize vehicles. Trucks, vans, and large SUVs will need to use available street parking with the exception of guests reserving our Deluxe King Studio rooms, which have their own designated parking spaces.
Do you accept groups?
Due to the nature of our property, we do not accept groups or take room blocks as they often disturb the enjoyment of our other guests.
Any groups that book without express permission from our management team will have their reservation immediately cancelled.
Please contact Cody at cody@harborhouseinn.com with any group booking requests.
Can I bring my pet?
Although we love animals, not everyone does. We ask that you please leave your pet at home during your visit to the Harbor House Inn.
Our No-Pets policy applies to Emotional Support Animals, Comfort Animals and Therapy Animals.
What About Service animals?
The Harbor House Inn complies with Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) allowing access for all individuals to public places; therefore we do allow working service dogs to accompany our guests. Service animals are individually trained to perform work or tasks and are not allowed to be left in the room unattended. Dogs whose sole function is to provide comfort or emotional support do not qualify as service animals under the ADA.
Under ADA regulations that became effective on March 15, 2011, there are no protections for emotional support animals in terms of access to public accommodations. Should you arrive to our property with a pet that is not a service animal, you will be denied check-in and will forfeit the first night’s room and tax if the room is unable to be resold.
Do you have breakfast?
Nope. 110% of our energy goes in to providing you a comfortable stay. Check out Jeaninne’s At The Shore for the best breakfast in town.
We do provide fresh fruit, snack bars, and biscotti that are complimentary and can be found in our office.
Do you have a handicap accessible room?
Yes we do! Room 6 features the following:
- A ramp, wide doorways, and ample space for wheelchair to easily move about
- Cordless telephones allow for calling from anywhere in the room
- Multiple grab bars in the shower and next to the toilet
- Showers have non-slip surfaces
