The Shallows Resort

The only complaint i have is the walls must be thin. We had a family of 4 beneath us, with 2 younger kids, and we could hear them every morning. They woke us up! Otherwise we loved it!!

Nice clean and family orientated. If your looking to relax and enjoy the simplicity of it all, this is the place to stay. Conveniently located on the peninsula to reach attractions in town, (Egg Harbor), approximately 2 miles North, or other destinations on the peninsula.

It is a beautiful spot on the bay and sunsets were gorgeous. It is family friendly and quiet. The canoes, kayaks, and bikes are a nice option for fun. The continental breakfast is donuts and coffee and hot water. We went out for some protein for breakfast. We stayed in a wood view room and it had a couple of things that made it worth choosing the lake view rooms. The shower was tiny and the water stream was hard to direct. It needs a wand attachment. The tv was at right angles to the bed, so it was hard to watch over my husband's body, but we did not spend much time in the room and so did not watch much tv. The pillows are the flattest I have ever seen, though they are shapable, so we asked for extra pillows. Other than these few complaints, it was a lovely place to stay.

Our family had a nice time at this resort. Beautiful grounds, very relaxing, thank you.

Our stay was perfect. The location and veiw were amazing. The ammenities where spot on. The staff seemed to anticipate everything you would need to have a flawless expereience. We plan to make this an annual visit. The whole family loved our stay at the shallows. Photos are of the veiw from our balcony.

We enjoyed staying at The Shallows but there are a few things that could've made our stay better. We stayed for 3 nights and they don't clean your room or empty your trash at all so our trash was totally full and I think you can get fruit flies this way. They should at least empty trash every other day. The breakfast is super basic - donuts, juice and coffee. More options would've been great. The hot tub was perfectly hot and our kids loved it. On our last night though they closed the pool and hot tub half an hour before it was supposed to be closed and our kids were so sad that they couldn't take a quick dip into the hot tub. We loved the views of the bay but there is no sand at all and swimming and taking out the kayaks can be a little tricky because you have to walk over all the stones. Next time I would bring water shoes. There is a reason its called the Shallows. The water is shallow for a long time and the water is weedy so definitely not an ideal swimming beach.
