i have been going there for years the town is great the pool is nice but hardly ever clean . The rooms are awful nothing has been done to them in years.There are roaches in many od the rooms , the sheets are old , the carpet is gross and the bedspreads are years old and filthy! the staff is nice but that's about it . The place is totally run down and filthy!

I made a second trip "home" 9/08 to the w/i 3 months to the North Shore of Long Island and again, I chose The Tides, this time for my entire aprox. week long stay.
