The lake view was beautiful. The rooms were clean and set up with coffee and a cold fridge. It was easy to access downtown since we were right downtown. This review is for Harbor Suites. We were upgraded from Pontiac Lodge to Harbor Suites once we arrived on the island.

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.
