All in all a pretty good stay. Had to ask for new sheets and blankets on pull out sofa because they were dirty. Lots of bugs in your room, but I do understand that is lake life. Everyone woke up saying their backs hurt from the beds. The fish boil they have is by far fantastic and delicious! Would definately recommend. Nice beach for the little ones, they have kayaks and paddleboards to use and can rent jet skis. They are also dog friendly, and staff was very nice!
Very nice place to stay, it's not fancy, but had everything we needed. Bed very comfortable. Restaurant, beach, boat launch, fish boils, and music all is right there.
It’s not the Hilton, although we have absolutely NO complaints. It’s clean, beds are comfy, staff very helpful and friendly, Food was delicious at Mary’s grill. We definitely will be back.
My friend Terri and I had dinner at waterfront Mary's. Our waitress was awesome and fun. They had a fish boil that we watched. Very cool and looked tasty.
Beautiful location, clean, comfortable accommodations, and wonderful staff! Beach Harbor Resort has everything you need for a relaxing getaway by the water. I loved every minute of my stay! Always so much fun!

I don't even know where to start, I'm completely satisfied with our stay here! My husband and I stayed here for 2 nights for a fishing trip and to celebrate my birthday. The property is beautiful, there's a ton of things to do, it was definitely hard to stay bored when we were here. Our room was exceptionally clean, the bed was so comfortable, the water pressure in the shower was strong, and waterfront Mary's was super convenient with fair prices for food and drinks. We definitely can't wait to come back. Its the best bang for your buck around here too, so I highly recommend! It was amazing. Shout-out to Julia the bartender over at Mary's, she helped make my birthday a little extra special. Girl you're amazing!
I stayed here this past weekend with my mother for a little getaway, having found the hotel online. From the outside we were a little weary, as it's a bit off the beaten path, and it looked a little older. However, they had a full parking lot for the bar/restaurant that's also on property so that gave us hope. Once we got to our room we were greeted with what looked like new flooring and furniture, fresh paint and an overall cute vibe. Our beds were comfy, the water pressure in the shower was great, and I honestly don't have a single complaint about our stay! The rates were outstanding (in march), and I will definitely consider Beach Harbor for my next DC trip!
