We've stopped in CT many times on our way from MD to Maine. We enjoyed Tidewater Inn and Madison so much, we decided to spend more time there this trip. Innkeeper Victoria offers everything to make her visitors' stay more comfortable and enjoyable--including chairs/umbrellas and passes for the private beaches, every toiletry imaginable (which was great since I forgot my...

Normally, we don't stay at B&B places. However for a short vacation, we opted to stay at the Tidewater Inn. This was a wise choice. Normally, we experienced B&B places serving continental breakfasts with stale rolls and out dated muffins. Not so at the Tidewater. Each morning, Victoria would cook us eggs, sausages, french toast, etc to the point where... More

We only stayed at Tidewater Inn for one night but it was one of the most relaxing bed and breakfast experience we'd had. Victoria is a wonderful hostess and her attention to detail is impeccable. Upon arrival, we were treated to wine and cheese (which Victoria provides in the sitting area daily from 5-7pm). She also gave us some wonderful... More

My wife and I just stayed for this spectacular 7 course dinner that is held twice per year at the Inn. The food,wine,and Atmosphere were top notch. Victoria is the ultimate hostess and creates the most delicious breakfast. I strongly recommend that people attend the next dinner as it is a great experience.

Victoria was a great hostess. She is very knowledgeable about the area and was able to make appropriate recommendations for my husband and I. She served a creative breakfast in a friendly environment. I also enjoyed the gifts that came with our package.

We stayed at the inn for our anniversary. Our overall impression was positive, but there were things that merited note. Positives: - Rooms were neat, and great amenities provided: board games for guests to play, abundant and nice toiletries for guests in the bathrooms, great guides to local businesses, restaurants, bike rentals, hiking trails, and attractions, and overall great "homey"...

We stayed at Tidewater Inn for 1 night on our way from Newark Airport to Boston. Basically we just pointed out on a map a small town by the sea in between New York and Boston and it happened to be Madison, CT, when we googled it we found Tidewater Inn and booked it. A little pricey for a B&B... More

We just came back from a great weekend at the Tidewater Inn in Madison, CT. We had the Bushnell room, and the overall impression was very good, even though the place could use a little TLC, especially in the bathroom. What made the entire stay exceptional was Victoria's qualities as an innkeeper. From the warm welcome, to the late afternoon... More
