Beachy Comfort Just Steps from the Ocean City Boardwalk

Relaxed and welcoming, Harris House by the Beach offers a classic beach motel vibe in the heart of Ocean City, NJ. Located just 197 feet from the Boardwalk and beach, this laid-back stay is ideal for visitors wanting a mix of sun, sea, and live entertainment. Each room includes a seating area, flat-screen TV with satellite channels, and a private bathroom with complimentary toiletries and a hair dryer.

Why Concert-goers love it

Location is everything, and Harris House is just a short walk from Ocean City’s entertainment hotspots. Whether you're catching a live show at the Music Pier or heading to nearby venues in Atlantic City (just 16 miles away), it’s a smooth trip back to your room. The hotel offers a quiet atmosphere for unwinding after the encore, plus flexible 24-hour front desk service to help with late arrivals or early exits.

Who this Hotel is great for

• Groups of friends who want beach access and concert proximity
• Solo travelers chasing that dream live performance
• Couples making a romantic weekend out of a show
• Fans needing a peaceful post-concert recovery
• Budget-conscious music lovers looking for value and location

Food and Drink Options

While Harris House doesn’t offer on-site dining, the Boardwalk's many eateries are just steps away. Grab a slice of pizza or a funnel cake after the show, or enjoy a morning coffee at one of the nearby cafes – perfect for late risers after a night out. Several restaurants offer takeout and delivery, so you can bring your midnight snack back to your room.

Nightlife Options

Live music, bars, and lounges are all within walking or short driving distance. Ocean City’s nightlife is more laid-back than Atlantic City, but if you’re up for a quick trip, AC’s casinos and music venues are easily accessible. After the show, return to Harris House for a quieter end to the night.
