The Lark Motel was very clean. It is an older motel that has very outdated furniture and our mattress was not the best. We enjoyed our stay though. As long as you are not looking for a luxury hotel you should be fine with the Lark. more

For the past 25 years I have stayed with my family at the Lark Motel in Stone Harbor, NJ the same week in August. Undoubtedly some of the best times of my life were had there and some of the best memories made. As a child I always looked forward to swimming in their HUGE heated pool. ( which is... more

My 3 year old daughter and I stayed for 3 nights. We had a very nice time. The owner, Dick, gave us recommendations for restaurants and activities for children. We enjoyed the relaxed atmosphere and my daughter especially liked the pool because she could stand in a large portion of it and it was heated. In addition, I left my... more

If your looking for the ultra modern glitz and glamor of A.C. go to A.C. If your looking for a nice, clean, affordable motel to bring your family, stay at the Lark. Nice pool, close to the beach, close to all activities. Your a 9 iron from the Wildwood Boardwalk. Stone Harbor is beautiful with no riff raff. more

Have stayed at the Lark several times over the years because it was affordable. Very clean, well kept, not fancy. Basic. Not the most family friendly place - If you have children, make sure they are very quiet around the pool, because the owners will complain. My 6 yo son did a cannonball into the pool (no one else in... more

The Lark motel is absolutely great! The hotel is a convenient 2 block walk to the beach. Two blocks in the other direction puts you in downtown Stone Harbor (96th Street). The owners, Dick and Evelyn, and the staff, are as nice and accomodating as ay hotel we've ever been in. The rooms are clean, have a microwave, stove, and... more

I take this motel for granted, and never thought of writing a review until I realized how much of a family tradition our Stone Harbor vacation is. We have been staying at the Lark going on 20 years now. Often, we'll see the same people since we vacation the same week in July every year, so I know there are... more

Good Luck!

Make sure your plans are rock solid with this place! Review their reservation policy very carefully. I cancelled a reservation 27 days prior after making a $350 deposit. The proprietor was inflexible, rude, and would not refund even part of the deposit. What's worse, I think he LIED! My friend tried to get a room there and was told it... more

Management response from
Richard Pfaltzgraff, Owner

We can find no record a a recent cancellation where we kept $350 in deposit money. We require 2 nights deposit to guarantee a room which would make their stay $175 per night. None of our rates is this high until July 14 when our rate would be $176 for a stay of less than four nights requiring a deposit...

My family has been staying at the Lark for decades. The staff is always friendly, the rooms are clean and the facilities are great for a laid-back beach vacation. It is conveniently located near the beach and the downtown area. Given the high price of real estate and rentals in the area, this place is most definately a great bargain.... more

Have stayed here for short stretches for the past few years. The manager is friendly and keeps the facility clean and comfortable. I have not noticed rowdiness as I have at some shore motels. The rooms are basic with a small kitchenette and clean but small and dated bathroom. The pool and deck chairs are also well maintained and there... more
