Best Western Harbour Pointe Lakefront

10/10 Excellent
"Staff was wonderful. View from our room was great. They had smores and a camp fire in the evening. Only downfall was we were hoping for a sand beach and it is all rocks. It was very pretty though. Bring a kite to fly, or football to throw. There is so much open green space between the building and water for the kids to run and play."

The Inn At Stonecliffe

10/10 Excellent
"If you prefer to be away from the hustle & bustle, this place is for you. My husband & I stayed at Stonecliffe for 5 days & we would not consider any other hotel on the Island. The grounds are immaculate & spacious. Nice restaurants, walking trails, bike rentals, a General Store. We stayed in The Mansion & our room was beautifully comfortable. We highly recommend Stonecliffe for your Island stay."
