"Many activity options including bikes, trails, kayaking, tennis, paddle boarding. All free!!!"

Scandinavian Lodge

8/10 Good

"Overall, this is a gem. A few updates needed, like better mattress, coffeemaker that takes less than 30 minutes to make a pot, faucet changes."

Harbor Light Inn

8/10 Good

"Very comfortable and a beautiful view of the bay. Close to Washington Island ferry where we spent an entire day and easily got back in time for dinner in Sisters Bay. We loved staying at the north end of the peninsula and enjoyed our stay. The innkeeper had snacks and drinks available in the great room for everyone to enjoy and a cozy fire that was welcome at the end of a windy day outside."
