This is the second time we have stayed at Mooncussers. And my wife and I were not disappointed again! This Inn and restaurant dates back to 1773! It is just charming and the the food at their restarant is just out of this world! We come every couple years to Cape Cod to visit my aunt is East Harwich. I will always make it a point to stay here. Patrick, Annie and Damien do sunch a fantastic job and we could rate this place any higher. Just remember, we are talking abount a building that was built in 1773! There will alway be a few quirky think that pop up, but this is so much cooler than staying at one of the overpriced inns in Chatam. Their rates are very affordable for being on the Cape. Give them a shot if you want a very special and unique experience!

A lovely lodge with excellent dining room and tavern. This is exactly what we were looking for, versus the standard small motel room or sterile Airbnb. Clean, comfortable, and quiet. Patrick becomes an immediate friend and quickly attends to all details of the lodge. Annie runs an exceptional dining room / tavern.

This is a very charming inn with tons of character. The accommodations were great, but what set this place apart from others is the people. The staff were friendly, professional, and attentive. From the innkeepers/owners (Thank you Dan!) to the restaurant crew, everybody made you feel welcome. And by the way, the food was top notch.

Nice quiet area and friendly owners. We were in room 5. The rooms are on the second floor of the tavern. A spacious room , queen bed. Dinner in the tavern was excellent. The room was very clean and plenty of parking. The shower is a little tight and I did hear some noise from the tavern because we were next to a stairwell above the bar area, but the air conditioner muffled most of it.

There was an unpleasant smell that we couldn’t source. The room furniture was a mish mash that looked like it had been sourced from numerous other hotels or businesses or a fire sale. The armchairs may have been the source of the odor as they definitely smelled off. We looked for a dead mouse or something but no luck. The plumbing “gurgled” all night long. Housekeeping walked in on us a bit after 9am while we were in bed, no knock or anything. The shower pipes “squealed” loudly the entire time it was on. We went downstairs to request a new room for the second night but there was NO ONE around the first floor of the inn, restaurant or pub. So we left the room key and just left. A staff person saw us in the parking lot and said it was his fault about the housekeeper, that he told her the wrong room number had checked out. We told him about the experience and he just said he was surprised, that people usually liked that room. Later on we emailed about our experience and They didn’t respond in any way to our request for a refund for the second night. Do NOT recommend this inn at all!

More like a B&B than a hotel, only 5 rooms. Owner Patrick met us at the door, expecting our arrival and was quick to help with bags or with a restaurant recommendation. Stayed in room #1 which was huge, with a very comfortable king size bed. Place is old (1774) so floors are uneven, staircase steep and narrow but bathroom while dated is sufficient and shower is strong with plenty of hot water. Would definitely stay there again.

We found the bed comfortable and the room nice. The only drawback was the shower and the bathroom. It was very tiny, there was no place to hang anything and the shower didn’t work well at all. It also would have been nice to have amenities in the room (such as bottled water) or perhaps fresh coffee downstairs. I felt that the room guests were rather an afterthought for the inn, although they did give us ice when we asked for it ( no refrigerator).

Lovely tavern although closed on 4th of July. The room was clean and neat..it was quiet and peaceful. However, I was struck by the fact there was no outdoor sitting space for guests..just the tavern’s outdoor seating. I felt a bit “stuck” in the room. The owner greeted us and was friendly, but there wasn’t anyone around much during the day to ask questions.
