Overlook ferrying or woods. Dirt road hike to lighthouse to watch whales go by. Hike to only corner store or whale watching tours. No pool or swim facilities. Not busy end of Oct. 2 couples given very small balconies. King Rooms have basics, table, mini fridge. Very pricey. Outside access.

We enjoyed Briar Island very much. Our accommodations were nice, but the front desk staff was bad mouthing the cleaning staff to us and we found this to be unprofessional. Easy check in and check out. Nice view from our room and it was quiet and comfortable.

We were housed in the older section of the Lodge. No TV, but there was WI-FI. Very clean and the housekeeping staff were very helpful when needed. Overall for the one nite stay we were satisfied for the clean room. One suggestion is to update the mattress's in the older rooms.
