As someone who has vacationed in stone harbor their entire life, I have to say colonial lodge is the best place to stay in the area. The rooms are beautiful and the cleanest I’ve ever stayed in and the rates are very fair depending on the time you visit. Very friendly staff and super quiet property only two blocks from the beach. Trust me when I say you will absolutely love your stay here!

Great space! Had the queen bed parlor room. There is a sofa and chair for chillin’. Staff is very friendly, too. You are 2 blocks from the beach, and if you want umbrella/chair service, you need to walk a block or two over once on the beach. You get free beach tags, too—leave a cash deposit of $25’per tag. The room has a small frig, hair dryer and small coffee maker. If you want excellent coffee, you are in walking distance to many different cafes—all have great coffee (Cafe Noir, Coffee Talk and Fishin’ Pier Grill all have have great coffee and open around 7:00 am. Shopping, and good restaurants are all within walking distance. Highly recommend this place.

My husband and I have been staying here for several years now. The place is lovely, very clean and close to town and the beach. The staff is excellent, super accommodating and kind. We brought my son here for his first beach trip when he was six weeks old and they upgraded our room, giving us extra space. He’s now four and they still treat all of us very well. While most of the guests aren’t families with young kids, they are all nice and seemed to be amused by my son’s antics. :) Clearly, we are fans and highly recommend this place.

What a wonderful place to stay on vacation. The rooms perfect and the place was spotless. The staff were all warm and welcoming. If I could give the Colonial Lodge more than five stars I would. Try the place, you won't regret it!!!

Always had a great time staying at this hotel on our family vacations to the beach. Extremely convenient location as it's just a short walk away from the beach and the shops in town. The staff was always kind to us and treated us well.
