Everything went smoothly, and as always, everyone working at the resort was great. Our room view was awesome and was clean and comfortable. As we have been coming here for years it would be nice to see an investment in the furniture etc. It has been the same forever. Great location, laid back Birch Bay vibe.

We loved the location, the property was very clean and the staff was kind. We had room 202 facing the water with a large deck so we could enjoy the beautiful sunset and people watch. The condo had 3 rooms all with their own private bathroom and very spacious.

So much room!! A little dated but that is of no concern when it is as clean, convenient and spacious as this hotel! Plus, a more modern space would be so much more expensive. Had absolutely everything I look for in a hotel. Free and easy parking, too.

I recently had the pleasure of staying at Raintree’s Sandcastle in Birch Bay, conveniently located right across from the beach. Our two-bedroom room was incredibly comfortable, featuring a well-stocked kitchen and laundry facilities, along with two bathrooms and a large living dining area. The space was ample enough to comfortably accommodate a family of six. While the room was well-appointed, the lack of in-room air conditioning was a bit of a drawback. Thankfully, the ceiling fans and portable fan provided some relief from the heat. The hotel’s pool area was delightful and well-maintained, making for a perfect spot to relax. The food options available during the summer were varied and satisfying. The staff at the hotel was exceptionally friendly, adding to the overall positive experience. Despite the minor inconvenience with the air conditioning, our stay was thoroughly enjoyable, and we definitely plan to return in the future. Highly recommended for families looking for a beachside getaway!

It was our first time traveling with our little one and was so lovely! The only thing which the hotel can’t help - there is very loud music at the brewery next door.

Great location across the road from the beach as well as local restaurants all within walking distance. Town closes down at 10pm so quiet at night. Would be nice if there was a propain fire table on the balcony.
