Nice place to stay on the island. Has a restaurant attached. Lunch/dinner meals are pretty good, our breakfast was terrible but they discounted it for us due to the poor quality. Have stayed here multiple times and will probably stay again. Just don’t expect much for breakfast.

It was great to find a nice place to stay, convenient to the ferry and the whale watching cruise. It was an easy trip the morning we went on the boat and very convenient to all the local sights. Great restaurant, nice clean rooms.

We enjoyed our one night stay. If I had been staying longer, the room could use a TV and curtains that cover the entire window/door. Spectacular views ! We didn't have time to use the restaurant this time, but previous visits the food there is delicious.

This is a good place to sleep if you come for whale watching, and relatively well priced. Our room didn't have AC, but the restaurant and front desk employees were all very nice.

Best location at Brier Island for whale watching

Best location for overnight stay to be able to do whale watching the next day at Brier Island, considering you’d have to leave on time to catch 2 ferries that are on hourly schedules. Awesome food!

Nice view

The room was fine. Wish they could have emptied the garbage cans before we arrived. Others garbage left a lot to be desired. No tv was interesting. Shower was okay when the hot was working. Bed was extremely comfortable Staff and view was best part. Breakfast was good but super pricey for what you got.
