The resort

A whole shoreline, and only our guests on it

The Long Beach Resort is 31 privately rented cottages and suites, 14 cottages and 17 townhouse suites, spread along 750 feet of private Lake Erie beach that we rake every morning. The beach is for resort guests only, so the stretch of sand in front of your door stays quiet all week.

The shore here is famously shallow and warm. You can wade three hundred feet out and still be waist deep, which is why families have been coming back to Long Beach for generations. Every cottage and suite has air conditioning, heat and high-speed Wi-Fi that carries all the way to the sand, plus a bonfire pit, a charcoal BBQ, a picnic table and beach chairs of its own.

Shallow, warm, and clear to the bottom

Wade three hundred feet out and you are still only waist deep. It is the reason toddlers learn to swim here and the reason their parents relax.

  • “We plan to make Long Beach Resort an annual summer getaway for our family!”

    Amazing experience. This is our second time here. Excellent location and white sandy beach. Rooms are comfortable with modern appliances. Water is shallow so it’s quite warm. Ahmet, the owner, is very friendly and responsive including the rest of the staff, especially Seiya. Highly recommend! We plan to make Long Beach Resort an annual summer getaway for our family!

  • “We call it a hidden gem! The beach is the main character.”

    We have stayed at Long Beach Resort twice now and we absolutely love it. We call it a hidden gem! The beach is the main character. The resort sits in a huge strip of white sand beach along Lake Erie with shallow, clear warm water. It’s fantastic for families because of how wide the beach is and how shallow the water is… In the summer, they have their coffee and gelato shop right on site and it’s 10/10.

  • “It didn’t even feel like we were in Ontario!”

    Cannot recommend this place enough! It was totally random that my family came here and right off the bat we were greeted by the amazing staff! The accommodations were stunning and loved the private beach! It didn’t even feel like we were in Ontario! Can’t wait to come back! We’re making this a family tradition!

Check-in & Check-out times
  • Check-in: 2PM
  • Check-out: 10AM

On occasion, we permit earlier check-ins and later check-outs depending on the availability of the unit.

Extended check-out for a fee can be requested on the evening before or the the morning of your check-out, but no sooner. The cost is 50% of the nightly rate + HST and you can stay until 6PM. But, the unit must be available for that option.

Are pets permitted?

In some cases, we permit hypoallergenic dogs, but there are conditions.

  • They are not permitted on the beach, except for long walks along the water’s edge.
  • They are not permitted on the furniture (e.g. bed, sofa-bed, couch, chairs, tables, etc.).
  • They must not be aggressive toward anyone. They must not bark. It’s important that our guests are truthful to themselves about their pet's noise levels.

Fee

There is a nightly fee of $100 + HST up to 3 nights. We do not charge more than $300 for the duration of the stay.

Support Dogs

Support dogs are only permitted if they are hypoallergenic and meet the same conditions as outlined above. They are also subject to the fees above. Otherwise, although they may be support dogs, they will not be permitted.

Service Dogs

Service dogs are permitted without fees but they must not be confused/mistaken with support dogs.

Contact Us in Advance

In every case, the guest must call/email before they arrive to speak with our staff about their specific pet in order to receive approval to bring them.

Are there laundry services on site?

No, but there are several coin laundromats just a quick 10-minute drive in nearby Port Colborne.
