“Great place for a family weekend”

Reviewed 13 June 2013 NEW

We have stayed at FSK during a weekend sports tournament for the last 3 years. The hotel is filled with lacrosse and soccer familes so the place takes on a communal and party-like atmosphere. What makes this place perfect is that the kids can hang out with their friends because there are tons of things for them to do (2... More

“Great place for families”

Family oriented hotel. Great pools, playground, shuttle to the beach. Miniature golf was ok at best mostly due to kids not being supervised by parents and putting others in dangerous situations with the balls. Food wasn't good and was a little high. Would highly recommend this hotel. Room was a nice size, clean and comfortable. Staff was friendly and helpful.... More

“Great off season stay.”

Reviewed 8 June 2013 via mobile

Have stayed at FSK 4 times during easter week, and twice for Christmas week. Always had good enough rooms, and you could tell that they were always improving the property. Looking forward to 2 nights in August before our condo rental.

“Dirty rooms.. Decent customer service”

Reviewed 3 June 2013 via mobile

We checked in at 12:00 and our room was ready for us. The front desk was very helpful at check in. We stayed in the main building on the third floor. The room looked clean on first appearances, the bathroom was really moldy and the floor wasn't the cleanest. It wasn't until we got back from the boardwalk at 1030... More

I had the pleasure of speaking with this family today and truth be told be just plain were at fault. No excuses the room was not properly cleaned and I am as disappointed as the guest. We have invited this family back so we can give them the vacation experience they deserve! Sincerely Annemarie Dickerson Owner More

“Good value, but still a motel.”

Reviewed 29 May 2013 via mobile

Make no mistake, it is a motel. The rooms have paper thin walls. The decor is beachy, but outdated. However, you won't be spending the majority of your time in the room (which was very clean)! The indoor pool is wonderful, though I don't believe that the water was 84 degrees. My 3 year old was shivering, as were some... More

Thank you for your review with both the FSK and the RT 50 Diner. We are indeed a motel and we are making improvements each year! We just completed in the last 24 months new carpet, furniture, flat screens and DVD's in every room. We gutted the 14 vacation homes this winter and they look fantastic. We have in our... More

“Kid friendly, very reasonable prices, overall average + very good”

Reviewed 28 May 2013

GOOD: For the price and the amenities, especially for children, this place gets an A++. Indoor water pool with slide, outdoor spray-ground, Peg-Leg putt-putt right on the property, small arcade and movie night with popcorn on select nights (free might I add) are all bonuses. The putt-putt course isn't anything fancy like many on the strip in OC but it... More

Thanks for your honest comments! We are working hard every year to make improvements to our property. We have come far from our 1950's starting point and though we know we still have work to do we are trying to do so as fast as possible! I wish we could afford and had time to do it all overnight....but we... More

“Nice family oriented hotel for Ocean City”

Reviewed 23 May 2013

Stumbled into this hotel online while planning a pre-memorial day trip to Ocean City, Maryland. It's very much a 'beach' style hotel (room is not luxurious, walls a little thin, doors go straight out to exposed 'halls', however it was extremely comfortable). It IS before the bridge crossing into Ocean City proper, so it isn't on the beach. Price was... More

Thanks for your review...we do try to have something for everyone! I hope that your family will come back again in summer when we are in full swing! Sincerely Annemarie Dickerson Owner More

“great for family”

Reviewed 7 May 2013

We stayed here as a couple during bike week and had a great time. They were very accommodating with easy check in and check out. I have stayed here about for times in different buildings. The rooms are average quality. Resort seems to be very kid friendly.

Thank you for taking the time to write. Though our main focus is on our younger guests we love to have different groups come and enjoy our property! Hope to see you ride down soon! Sincerely Annemarie Dickerson Owner More
