The Lodge has obviously been newly upgraded and looks good. The bathroom door didn't close properly and there was only one roll of toilet paper. Luckily we didn't need more! The tap in the sink was dirty, only the handle had been wiped. There were no cups/mugs for the coffee/tea that was available in the room, and no creamers had we been able to make some. The restaurant was nice, the service was very good too.

Our stay was wonderful! We chose Brier Island Lodge for our stay as we had an early whale watching tour (which was phenomenal) and the lodge exceeded our expectations. Staff were friendly and accommodating, dining on site is a bonus and the rooms were clean and quaint. We were able to leave the island with a sense of peace and a desire to go back.

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!
