Weekend getaway at the Margate

We enjoyed our stay at the Margate very much! Loved hanging out at tae beach bar and watching all the boats on the lake. Bed was super comfortable and the buffet breakfast was delicious and filling! We will be back soon!
Lori, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Convenient location for concert goers. We don’t get to see the lake from the property as we were in an annex building across the street so be sure to specify your room location.

Great view and hot tub
Kristyn, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

Margate WAY overrated!

My boyfriend and I were assigned a very SUB-par room across the street from the main buildings. It was VERY noisy and we could constantly hear people above us. TOTALLY unacceptable!! I will never stay at this property again unless I'm given a room in a lakefront building. Also, barely any products for self-care, a small TV, NO breakfast included. The ONLY positive aspect of this property is the dock restaurant/bar.

Excellent beach and very safe for swimming. Outdoor pool was excellent although you have to cross a busy road to access it.

Low key vacation spot

Our annual vacation spot works well for a low key family vacation visiting family and friends. Not a lot of frills for a resort but serves its purpose.

Concert weekend away

Room was clean & comfortable. Outdoor pool at the Inn side appeared to be closed (green) but no explanation or signage stating why. Lake was beautiful and beach staff services were fantastic!

The only thing I didn’t like was that we had to cross the street to get to the resort.
