“The Yachtsman surprised me; its setup, more bungalow than hotel, fosters a private, relaxed vibe that's hard to find so close to Dock Square. I appreciate how they've leaned into the waterfront setting with features like the floating pool and complimentary kayaks, leaning toward memorable experiences. It carves out a niche that feels both upscale and approachable.”
