The staff was so friendly!!! Everything was amazing and they were so accommodating. Blew my mind at how willing they were to work with us despite us not realizing they closed check-in at 10, and we weren’t able to show up until 10:50 but they still stayed and checked us in. And they were so cheerful about it ❤️ Thank you guys so much you really saved us and made our short stay so peaceful. Also those were actually the most comfortable hotel beds I’ve ever slept in and I’ve stayed at some NICE hotels. Such a nice experience!

Bell's Marina is a hidden gem. Family owned and off the beaten path, you can feel the community and the color in historic Eutawville. Every room has a inlet view off Lake Marion. The rooms are spotless and coffee and treats are provided.

Awesome Peaceful Hidden Gem
My stay was amazing. The property was very well maintained. The staff was awesome. Made me feel at home.
The room was excellent. The beds were extremely comfortable, the linens were very soft and clean.
The atmosphere was indescribable. There was a patio area that was so inviting. There was a swing and wind chimes next to the lake which made it easy to forget the day.

Good for the price!!
Wasn’t what I expected. The staff was friendly and liked that there was a diner and gas station on the property. Overall a good stay. They had WiFi and a lot of good channels to watch. Only thing is I would’ve liked a smoother road to drive into to get to the back of the property to get to the hotel part of the property.

Very pleased.
Went for a long weekend getaway for some fishing and relaxing, it’s a great location. Staff was very friendly and helpful when needed. Has a store and restaurant at the front of the campground, we stayed in the hotel which has been recently updated. Boat ramp was fine for my 16ft bass boat. There are gators in the water near Bells Marina so no swimming for you or your dog. Overall we had a great time, we would stay here again.

We had the most relaxing trip at Bells Marina & Resort. Our room was clean, and we loved that the decor wasn’t typical generic hotel prints. Beware of the beds! They are so comfortable they practically suck you in. Everything was convenient to our room. The lake was right outside our door, which couldn’t have pleased us more. The store, diner, and rental boats were right there. We had planned some hiking, and we discussed renting an electric boat. In the end, we opted to sit by the lake and have cookouts with all the wonderful people we met. The owner Jud was very nice and made sure we had everything we needed. The hotel is older, and you can hear the people above you. That wasn’t a problem for us, as we were hardly in our room, and the beds are too comfy to stay awake in. We can’t wait to get back to Bells Marina! Maybe next time we’ll get to that hiking, or maybe not.

Pretty view but wouldn’t stay again.
Check-in is in the gas station before you pull in which is interesting but there was clear signage saying so. When we arrived, the lake is right in front of you and very pretty and you can see it clearly from the room. The room smelled really nice. However, there was A LOT of hair in the bathtub that was super gross and when my daughter tried to take a bath (after me washing it out), the stopper would not work and kept draining the water. Also the shower head leaked water pretty bad as I was running her bath so that was hard too as it got water everywhere. We were only there to sleep but we wouldn’t stay again. The neighbors were also crazy loud and kept us up past 1am when we had to be somewhere at 6am.
