I stayed at Dillions Creek the first four years it was open in the 80s. Dilons Creek may be worth the money because you can take the kids on LBI at night if they are really bored.
One last place to consider. When we travel from the Chessie to New England/Long Island Sound we usually come in Barnegat Inlet and
anchor in Meyers Hole behind the light house.
One year we had to hang out a few days due to weather and we went a little further back to the High Bar Yacht Club. First Class facility where the slips are owned, buy plenty are rented out. The trip to Barnetgat Bay is a short 2 miles intracoastal one or you can go out into the ocean.
Not sure of the price
