This resort is as real find! It takes two ferries to get to it as it is two islands off the mainland. There is no internet and the rooms don't have TV's, but they are very clean, comfortable and spacious...and virtually all have an ocean view. The staff are excellent. There is an on-site restaurant (different owners) that serve incredible scratch cooked food using mostly local and property raised ingredients. Our meals were top notch. Over-all we loved our stay and will likely return again one day. If you are looking for posh, this ain't it...but of you are looking for East Coast island charm, this it it!

When we to pay the bill, the debit machine had a tip screen that I was not able to by-pass. Other than handing a key to us we did not require any other service from staff...this is a great resort, but not cheap, so why was I obligated to leave a tip? I found it to be distasteful for them to expect further payment...or even to ask. That is my only complaint. The resort is basic, but packed full of back-island charm. We'd go again!

Location is lovely on the hilltop overlooking the waters between Brier and Long Island. We had both supper and then breakfast in the dining room. We found the food was good - a bit disappointing as our stay in 2021 - the food was exceptional. But the dining room is spacious and has amazing views. We loved the arrangement of Adirondack chairs outside of the dining room and enjoyed the beautiful late afternoon with a glass of our own wine and chatting with other guests. The views are stunning! Staff are always friendly and we love our trek to Brier Island to go Whale Watching.

We enjoyed the rustic style of the room although some might find it too simple. We have not been in the newer building - maybe next year.

The room's are pretty basic but clean and comfortable. (I'm always happy when there's a bathtub and not just a shower!) We loved the Brier Island map and murals in the hall and the whale bones in the lobby. The view is spectacular, as is the food. The vegetables are organic and grown in a green house on site. It's a great place. We'd definitely recommend it!

The location was great, close to the ferry and lovely views. The bed was comfortable and the room was clean. The staff and food were excellent!

The furnishings were mismatched and the sitting room had no furniture except an unusually tiny "loveseat"...no lamp, tables, etc. The noise from the adjoining kitchenette was very loud.

Location was fab, staff were lovely.

We were in a block of rooms that are on the “to be renovated list”. The block next door had been done really nicely, that being said we weren’t expecting any sort of renovations so the room we got matched our expectations, no TV was actually a nice experience, it was so peaceful

Location was prime for the whale watching cruises. Having a restaurant onsite was good

The building where we stayed is showing its age and could use an update from its original 70s style. There was a dresser in the room that had not been dusted in a very long time. Sound proofing is poor.

Everything! To get to the island is a bit if a trek but once there, the lodge is in a fantastic location. Ocean Views. Front desk gave is extra pillows/blankets and let is know where to sight see and the best times to do so which we took advantage of for sure! Beds are super soft. No TV in the rooms which was actually nice. You can take games from the main lobby to your room and play if you want.

Wifi is poor.

Although it is fairly basic accommodation it's clean and comfortable. Perfect for birding and whale watching

Walls are very thin. Given the fact many guests are awake early a few signs suggesting people should be quiet after 10pm would be good.

Great location. Beautiful view of the Bay of Fundy. Clean, cozy rooms. Friendly staff.

Would've liked more simple food options on the menu at the lodge's restaurant to accommodate different age groups. Coming to the lodge with two teenagers, the dinner menu did not have enough appealing food choices for them. The menu definitely caters to a more mature demographic.

We had a very friendly welcome and were given lots of helpful information about the area. The lobby was full of local art, books and whale/fishing paraphernalia. Our children were fascinated. We had dinner and breakfast in the hotel restaurant and found the food exceptional. Local seafood and craft beers. Everyone was chatty and sweet and helpful.
