Cambria Shores is a great place to stay, especially for dog lovers. The staff is welcoming and helpful. The rooms are very clean and feel like home. The breakfast basket at your door every morning was an added touch, along with the complementary coffee bar. Loved ending each day with a glass of wine sitting on the grass watching the sunset over the ocean. Highly recommend staying here. We have already booked our next stay.

We will always stay here. Perfect stay everyone. Staff, especially Scott, goes above and beyond to make your stay as enjoyable as possible. Rooms are very nice. Love all the little touches like a basket with books, dinnerware and an extra blanket and water bowl for the dogs. Love the breakfast hung in a basket outside our door and the convenience of having a coffee shop and restaurant on site now. Best place to sit in an Adirondack and watch the sun set.
