The staff was so friendly!!! Everything was amazing and they were so accommodating. Blew my mind at how willing they were to work with us despite us not realizing they closed check-in at 10, and we weren’t able to show up until 10:50 but they still stayed and checked us in. And they were so cheerful about it ❤️ Thank you guys so much you really saved us and made our short stay so peaceful. Also those were actually the most comfortable hotel beds I’ve ever slept in and I’ve stayed at some NICE hotels. Such a nice experience!

A perfect way to get connected to my wife
Beautiful place and the staff was awesome. The ourside was like a picture in a magazine. The outside was clean and the fish was jumping.
Thank you for a enjoyment weekend. Hope to see you soon

The wife and I were cooking seafood outside on the patio when a rain storm blew in, horrible downpour. We tried several times to get in our room, the key would not work , the FOB would not work. We were stuck in the rain for a total of 30 minutes, all food/supplies ruined. When I went and finally found the owner, he basically called me a liar and tried to make it my fault, tried to be-little me in front of other customers. He refused to comp me for the room or all the seafood/supplies. I'm pretty sure he has "little man" complex. And it wasn't only us, there was 3 other families. This place is like a pig with lipstick, when you walk on the floors it sounds like you're going to fall in, broken concrete strairs, room locks fall to work, paper thin walls. Hopefully your're driving a truck, the place is one big pothole. DO YOURSELF A FAVOR, FIND ANOTHER PLACE.

Room was very nice. However we went to fish. No place to dock the boat and there is no good parking for a boat and trailer. Not a good set up. 10 miles to any number of restaurants. No restaurant at the “resort”.

酒店回复: Thank you for your feedback—we’re happy to hear you enjoyed the room! We're sorry to hear the boating setup didn't meet your expectations. We do have a marina on-site with a boat launch available for just $5, and overnight boat slips for $25. Parking for trailers is directly behind the hotel—while it’s not waterfront, it's the most practical option we can currently provide. It sounds like there may have been a lack of clear information at check-in, and we truly regret any confusion.Also, our on-site restaurant just reopened two days ago after extensive renovations—you may have missed it depending on the timing of your stay. We hope you’ll return and get to enjoy everything Bells Marina now has to offer, including convenient access to Lake Marion, great food, and improved guest amenities.

We were very disappointed with our stay. The business does not meet the expectation set by the internet. The place is aged and much smaller than it appears in the advertising. We stayed in a double bed room but we did not get any sleep. The walls are not insulated and we could hear everything in the rooms around us. The people above us moved around all night and it sounded like they were going to come through the ceiling. The problem with the thin walls is so bad there were complimentary ear plugs in the room. The management offered to comp us a room, but we don't have any plans to ever visit this place again. When I told them that we had no intention of ever staying again, they offered to refund us 1/2 of the rental fee, but I don't feel right about taking a refund, so we are not going to accept one. I really appreciate the manager offering, but we stayed and we paid. It isn't fair to expect money from them for something they cant control. I was torn about leaving a review, because I realize the management is trying to do the best they can with what they have to work with, however I do feel people deserve to know this place is not as nice as it seems online. The rooms are clean but they are aged and you can hear everything from the surrounding rooms. I would not recommend this place to any of my friends or family.

酒店回复: Hi Teresa,Thank you for taking the time to share your experience. We’re truly sorry that your stay did not meet your expectations. While we’re proud of the many guests who leave happy and return year after year, we fully acknowledge that older properties like ours can come with challenges—especially regarding sound insulation.We’re a small, independently run resort doing our best to maintain a balance between the rustic charm of our lakeside location and modern guest expectations. That said, your feedback is invaluable, and we’re actively working to improve comfort in our rooms, including soundproofing solutions where feasible.We also want to thank you for acknowledging the efforts of our team. Our staff cares deeply about our guests’ experiences, and while we’re disappointed that we couldn’t make things right for you, we respect and appreciate your honesty.If you ever change your mind, we’d be grateful for the opportunity to provide a better experience in one of our upgraded units or standalone accommodations, where noise is much less of a concern.I wish you all the best in your future travels.
