Great stay close to short

We stayed 2 nights at this lovely hotel. It's a great location, close to 2 main restaurants that are open until 10 PM and serve variety of food and beverages. The hotel itself is very charming. Miss Patty greeted us with snacks and provided us an amazing breakfast. The room was big enough for a couple and the bathroom was very clean.

This is such cute property and our room had a wonderful view of the marina. Ms. Patty is so sweet. She made us feel comfortable and welcome. She also made a lovely breakfast which we ate while watching the hummingbirds at the feeder. Relaxing and quiet.

A perfect place to stay

We had a lovely stay at the Captain's Cottage. Our hosts, Patti and Paul, were very attentive and made us feel right at home. Having a tiki bar and restaurant right there made it very convenient for us. The view of the river from the balcony was excellent. We will definitely book again when we are in the area next year.

The property was exactly as described. The owners have a marina as well as the B&B and you're staying right on the waterfront. Food was culinary treat and location was central to all I needed to do in the area. Patti was fun and helpful and I felt right at home while visiting my son, daughter-in-law, and grandson in NJ. Jane and Ellie made the stay fun - (the dogs).

A Great Getaway.

We had a great stay at the Inn at Rivers Edge Marina. The rooms were comfortable, clean, and well-maintained. The service was excellent. Breakfast was excellent. The views were beautiful. The location was perfect for day trips to local beaches. A restaurant was within walking distance.
