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.

My husband and I enjoyed a relaxing weekend here. We enjoyed sitting on the balcony watching the boats go by. The bedroom and bathroom were cozy and immaculate. The breakfast was delicious. We enjoyed the live entertainment from the restaurants close by. Very peaceful atmosphere and great romantic getaway.

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.

Patty makes the best breakfast anyone could ask for and she is so pleasant. The captain’s room was very nice and very clean .The deck outside however needs some repairs. The whole house needs some TLC. Otherwise very pleasant stay!

Everything you want from a B&B: Friendly owner, comfortable bed, good coffee and breakfast, clean and unfussy. The inn sits on the river with it's own dock. Lovely to watch the boats, marine life and the sun rise and set right from your own deck. There are nearby restaurants and a park within walking distance, with more eating options just a short drive away. We stayed in the spacious king suite, but the other two rooms looked equally as inviting. I especially appreciated the Jacuzzi tub. Patty, the owner, was welcoming and knowledgeable about the area... and the omelet for breakfast was delicious. Her dog, Jane, was well behaved and a real sweetheart. We were in town for a family event during the off-season and just stayed one night, but will definitely return again (though I am sure the area is a little more busy and loud in the warmer months - that is to be expected in a shore town). So much better than staying at a motel. I would feel safe staying here on my own.

Charming alternative

A charming alternative to the regular beach hotels and motels. The bed was comfy, breakfasts tasty, and being able to sit outside on the deck for morning coffee and a glass of wine after the beach was sweet.

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.

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).
