Blue Harbor Resort and Conference Center

I’m honestly shocked that people give this place 5 stars. This was our first stay, and unfortunately it will likely be our last unless major updates are made. The rooms were outdated and dirty. Our shower soap dispensers were empty (we discovered this mid-shower), and housekeeping had to come refill them. The pull-out couch was full of crumbs and food from a previous guest—absolutely gross. Everything just gave you that “ick” feeling. The waterpark was the biggest disappointment. Mold, rust, algae, and dirt were everywhere, especially in high-traffic areas. Some of the rust was so bad it’s literally eating through the metal. It didn’t feel safe or sanitary at all, and I honestly don’t know how it passes inspection. The food was extremely overpriced and very limited. The breakfast buffet was $20 per person for just a handful of items. You’re better off going to one of the many nearby restaurants. Bottom line: If you can look past the cleanliness and outdated facilities, the concept itself is fun. But at this price point, I expect a clean, safe, and sanitary resort—especially when it’s marketed as a family destination. It’s a shame, because the place has potential, but it desperately needs a full renovation and much better upkeep. Until then, I can’t recommend it.

My family had a wonderful experience here. My two kids ages 6 and 7 had a blast. The water park was clean and tons of fun. The pool outside was great and walking distance to the beach was lovely. We did smores, arcade and went into town. We had a ground level family suite lake view. Stayed Monday-Thursday. No lines at the water park! We did not eat at the hotel so I can’t rate the food. I would suggest going downtown and exploring for food options there! The hotel can be a tad loud but it’s a water park hotel so what can you do?! Other than that I have 0 complaints. We will 100% return and most likely will stay during the week.

Pool closed at 8 and bonfire by 9 so not much else to do
