"We stayed at 76 Main during Stroll weekend. The location is perfecting, steps away from downtown main street, restaurants, and shops. Richard was fantastic - welcoming and very friendly. The island lost power and our lunch and dinner reservations got cancelled. He helped us find places that were open (sandwiches, pizza) and even offered to drive us to pick up the pizza, which he then ordered for the rest of the guests who had no where to eat. We can't wait to come back again! "
