We just had a delightful mini-break at the Northwood. The room was comfortable, as always. (We've stayed in regular rooms as well as suites.) The continental breakfast (we were there on weekdays) is delicious, especially with the tasty fruit and homemade muffins! John and Marj are great hosts. Not only did we stay in our favorite place for a getaway,... More

My Wife and I stayed at Northwood Inn for the Memorial Day Weekend and we can’t recommend the place enough. The breakfast was great, and Marj was really helpful with restaurant recommendations in Ocean City. We even got to take some delicious home baked cookies for our drive back home. We will visit again, thanks Marj & John.

My husband and I have stayed at the Northwood Inn multiple times. They never disappoint!! You cannot find better facilities...rooms are updated and beautifully decorated, sparkling clean, and very private, offering everything you need. The owners are extremely welcoming and hospitable, while still respecting your privacy. The cooking is superb on-site, yet the location provides easy access to restaurants and... More

Our first trip to Ocean City was an impromptu one, over the 4th of July holiday last year. Thankfully, the Northwood Inn was able to accommodate us at the last minute. Marge & John were very friendly and our stay was clean and cozy. Breakfast was delicious and the firework display from the rooftop deck is not to be missed!

Our stay at the Northwood Inn was perfect, The Innkeepers Marge and John were the perfect hosts, Marge's Breakfast was second to none. The rooms were well kept and spotless. We stayed in the Rose Room which was beautiful. The whole time we were there, we were treated like family. When it came time to pay our bill, they honored... More

Owners were friendly and suggested restaurants that would be open in the off season. Our room was clean and as described. The rooftop deck was a great place to watch the New Year's Eve fireworks. I'd definitely visit Northwood again!

On our first trip to Ocean City, NJ, we stayed at the Northwood Inn after searching and looking at reviews for B&Bs in the area. We had never stayed in a B&B before and we weren't sure what to expect. It was such a great experience! Marj and John made us feel at home and it was so comfortable there.... More

It's always better be in touch and reserve ahead. This guest had no cell phone and John was not expecting anyone. Communication was difficult. We did our best and are glad he got in and settled and had an enjoyable stay. More

We've been going to Ocean City for many, many years and have either rented houses (with our children), condos or suites, or stayed in hotels. This was our first time for a B&B, and it certainly won't be the last at the Northwood. John and Marj (and Harry the poodle) quickly became family, and their house was our house. The... More
