My husband and I really enjoyed our stay at the Lodge Inn. This was our first time staying there and was very impressed with the friendly hospitality and cleanliness. We loved how close to the boardwalk it was and the view out of our window. One of the best hotels I’ve ever stayed at. I can’t say enough good things about this place and the entire staff. Will definitely stay there again. Well worth the price paid.
