We had a wonderful time at the motel. So many things to do! The girls loved being able to get a board game or movie while waiting for us to get things around. The water park is great. My teenage daughter also enjoyed just playing volleyball or ping-pong. Our housekeeper was excellent. Your staff was very helpful and even remembered... more

This is the perfect place to bring a family. The facility is clean. the people are amazing. There are so many things to do there is no reason to leave and go in town. The indoor pool is amazing. The pirate ship is hours of fun. The shuttle is awesome. the longest i waited was less than 5 minutes. I... more

This was our first trip to OC after years at Myrtle Beach. I am very glad we chose to stay at FSK after reading the reviews and agree wholeheartedly with the positives mentioned: great value, quiet and clean resort, super shuttle service, and very nice indoor pool (my 8 yr old and 1 and half year old were there every... more

We just returned from FSK and thought it was a great deal. We have a 4 year old and a 4 month old and were not sure what to expect as this was the first time staying at FSK. Our 4 year old loved the resort. He could have stayed at the indoor pool the entire time we were there.... more

Thank you for your comments. We are very excited as next year we will offer a full breakfast lunch and dinner - diner style. This will allow our guests the sit down breakfast that we have been hearing they want. We are also adding convention / lounge space for groups and for our guests to enjoy. As far as noise...

We booked rooms at the Francis Scott Key Family Resort after reading the impressive reviews on TripAdvisor, and we are so glad we did! The resort sits right on Ocean Gateway, just a mile from the hustle-and-bustle of the Boardwalk, but it feels like a campground in the middle of the woods! It's cozy and quiet and spans more than... more

We are so pleased that you enjoyed your stay. Our property has that family campground kind of feeling. What a compliment as my children love that atmosphere as well. Our goal is to make our guest experience the best it can be! Thanks for taking the time to write! Annemarie Dickerson Owner

traveled with softball team. the shuttle bus was great for girls to go to beach. Bad weather they played in indoor pool. the girls played volley ball at the court. I think they had to much fun, didn't do to well at softball. more

We hope that we see your team again soon! Our shuttle service has become one of guests favorite amenities. What started out years ago with one shuttle going every four hours is now two shuttles running none stop from 9am to 10pm. We look forward to your next stay! Sincerely, Annemarie Dickerson Owner

We chose the FSK motel based on other reviews and we were not disappointed! The beds are very comfortable, the staff is friendly and available, the shuttle is great, the indoor pool was perfect for not so sunny days, and the mini golf, our night fun! Our room was a bit dark but it did not bother us so much.... more

We chose FSK after a recommendation from a former co-worker. It figured that we picked the hottest week of the year to visit. I didn't know what to expect, but I was exceptionally pleased! When we didn't utilize the hourly shuttle to the boardwalk, we were dozing by the indoor pool. My daughter didn't want to get out! The rooms... more
