Just next door on Town Hill, we'll soon see a new boutique hotel with completion slated for 2024 as part of the Dodson development project.

Ellie Carruthers ran a fine (and the very first!) motor court in town which was open from May 27th through September 15th each year at 11 N. Irving Avenue. Doc's Motor Court is located at the beachfront. Here's a cool video about it! It sold in 2020 and is being renovated in preparation for reopening!

If you don't want to be too far from the boat, Nightingales Motel & Marina offers a slip for your boat and sleep for you! They're open daily from April to early November and will spoil you with five air-conditioned rooms, cable TV, boating facilities, bike rentals and a great Thai & French restaurant right next door. 101 Monroe Bay Avenue. 804-224-7956

The Riverview Inn (closed in 2015 and under renovation until 2017) will take you back in time with it's retro look. It's got a futuristic side as well. This property reopened and is open daily year-round beginning in October of 2017 (just in time for Bikefest!) and was often a stop on the monthly 2nd Friday ArtWalk. You can find it at 24 Hawthorn Street, not far from the Colonial Beach Municipal Pier.

Robert and Kelly Vaughn did a great job and took it back to the original colors it appeared in after it was first built. There are 21 rooms and they can be rented by calling 804-224-4200.
