The Quiet Bay Inn is a beautiful tranquil cabin where you can experience the local wildlife from the comfort of your cabin. Beautiful view of the lake and all of the essential amenities are available. Breakfast at the quite bay restaurant was AMAZING and the pricing was very reasonably. Would highly recommend!!!

The Quiet of Quiet Bay Inn

Our stay was very good. The name Quiet Bay says it all, we never heard any outside noise, the beds were comfortable and the room was very clean. Very handy to have the cafe right there as well. We will definitely stay there again.
