Property and rooms are pretty dated. Handrails and stairs leading to upper floors are not very safe. Room was clean and bed was comfortable. Breakfast was great as everything was homemade including real maple syrup. It was economical for being on the water so I would probably use again. Staff were friendly and helpful.

This is my 4th stay at Ocean gate. The views and location are amazing. Check in was easy however we asked to switch rooms. I paid for an ocean view and the patio was facing the ocean but the view was obstructed by trees. I don’t think this room should be sold as “ocean view.” It was no problem to switch. The rooms are ok. Beds are ok. They are clean. Definitely an “old musty” smell. Each year I was told by staff that this resort is more of “camp away from home.” And “we have plans for renovations for next year.” Heck last year there were signs everywhere with pictures of what the rooms would look like. It’s looked the same every year. There is a nice pool. Tons to do with kiddos. Mini golf. Kayaking. The breakfast is the biggest plus. Stephanie told us about the local general store. They had amazing sandwiches. Short drive to Boothbay. I knew what I was getting. I was just hoping for actual renovations this time.

Lots of amenities such as heated pool, mini golf and access to kayaks/paddleboards. Good breakfast. View was amazing from part of the property, however from our room the trees & bushes needed to be trimmed & thinned out. What could of been an incredible view of the harbor was a view of bushes- disappointing.

I spent a couole nights there with my son. I like the view from the room. I like that had a deck. The room was clean. The property is super nice. But the rooms could use some updates. Its pretty dated. But well kept. It was vreaksfast included which was great..simple but enough. Since we then headed to boothbay harbor dor dinner. Was a couple mikes away. Vlose enough. We took the kayaks on the girst day. Played ping pong (they need to get new rackets). The pool was great. We spent a whole day there. Nice. Quiet. And we got to see a falli g star at night too. Was awesome. We enjoyed our stay.

We had a lovely view from our balcony, where we enjoyed the sunset. The outside of the building needs a powerwashing, the interior needs updating. My husband loved the camp like atmosphere!

The property was nice. The buildings were dated, but our room was private, quiet and had a porch with chairs overlooking the bay. The stairs and railings down to the water needed replacing. They were a little scary.

Lovely setting need upgrading

Loved the setting. Outside property was beautiful. Access to Kayaks, canoes, and paddle boards The room we had needed upgrading and initially smelled musty. Once we opened door for awhile the must smell subsided. Front desk staff member could have been more welcoming and when we left on Sunday I said just dropping off key. His response was Ok. Not Ok how was your stay or something to show an interest. Our room did not look anything like the picture on the website. Basic breakfast, loved the blueberry pancakes We would go back maybe try to get a room with a deck not just a balcony.
