The room was furnished quite nicely, but the room was very small and lacking outlets. Also, this appears to be an amateur remodeling job, as the bathroom door hits the sink when trying to close it. Aldo, there were noisy kids

Wrong description

Took my mother for her 80th birthday to the island.We reserved a two beds in a room and ended up with the room having a furniture change without our knowlege. A loveseat is not a bed. Mom had difficulty getting out of bed all night and moving around room due to this change. Told upon arrival that this was not going to be acceptable and all front desk lady said waa she would change reservation picture on the site. Told her again at check out and on the message and they did nothing but say sorry. Very disappointed. If you reserve two beds in a room you should get two beds. Had i known early on prior to arrival i would have gone elsewhere.

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.

We had an awesome view of the ferry docks and marina. It was a relaxing location. The room was very large with a bedroom, living room, dining area, and kitchen. The only down side is that it was difficult to find, but workers nearby directed us to the room.

The Pontiac Lodge was the perfect stay for our weekend getaway! You approach it right when you get off the ferry. Check in was smooth. You do have to walk up a short flight of stairs to get to your room(s) but very manageable. Rooms clean, beds comfortable, downtown. Would recommend staying here!
