Great place to stay during the winter, there is a bar/restaurant right next door with great food. The only minor issue was the walk from the ferry dock to the hotel in the winter
Right across from Sheppler’s ferry dock. Convenient to everything downtown. Clean, quite very friendly staff. This was our 2nd time staying and we will again.
The lake view was beautiful. The rooms were clean and set up with coffee and a cold fridge.
It was easy to access downtown since we were right downtown.
This review is for Harbor Suites. We were upgraded from Pontiac Lodge to Harbor Suites once we arrived on the island.
The location is perfect since it is directly across the street from Sheplers dock, it’s in the center of town and right on Main st. The bed and pillows were extremely comfortable. Will probably stay again.
