Brier Island Lodge

Everything was good, but the accommodation was very old.

WAYYYYYYYYYYY overpriced! I guess they can do this as they are really the only motel on the island. Had to pay for the 'apartment' as that the only thing left (my fault didn't think ahead that it was memorial day weekend) But the front desk gal was snippy and the apt was just OK. For the price i paid it should have been spectacular.

Great location. Marcus, the restaurant manager, is a world class host and made us welcome. We ate all our meals there for 2 days and all were excellent. Brier Island Whale tour was very good. Especially enjoyed the walk to the lighthouse.

Well, I have been procrastinating as usual and not getting word out there of an amazing experience we had while on the Islands for Brody's Graduation. We are from the islands but are not able to use our house as it's not wheelchair friendly. I started looking for accommodations for a two night stay while home back in April. My hubby is a C6 quadriplegic and is in a power chair. There are VERY limited options for accommodations in this province, let alone on the Island. So, I made a few phone calls and sent messages to many different places, in hopes to find something close. I spoke many times with Tiffany about the possibility of staying at the lodge. I gave her a needs list and she went at it. She was amazing! It was determined that one room they had in particular would work for us so I booked it. Thank gosh! Anyway, fast forward to the day before graduation. Once we arrived at the Lodge, George ( who was absolutely amazing btw) showed us to our room, which I went and scouted out to make absolutely sure it would work before unloading and getting Matt out of the van. We immediately ran into an issue with the bed. While there was 6 inches clearance, it had a box frame under it and the lift would only go under less than a foot. He reassured me that he would figure it out and ran and got Virginia, who both went looking for a different frame. Thankfully they found one that would accommodate us and we went to work changing it out. I CANNOT even begin to express my thanks for what they did for us! And not only that, when I went to pay for the room, it had been taken care of! What the heck!! So, me being me, I burst into tears and thanked Tiffany and Crystal profusely. To say I was shocked was an understatement!! So THANK you to Brier Island Lodge for being Amazing hosts! I honestly thought I was going to have to make the trip back to Dartmouth and come back down the next day. What a relief!! AND, not only did the lodge do that, but Grandview on Brier, not only offered to bring our breakfast to the room, but provided it for free! Thank you so much to Katherine and Marcus! We appreciated that so much!! And huge shout out, the breakfast was amazing!! It was really the only meal I wound up eating the whole time we were home. (I didn't get the chance to eat what I had gotten from the Cafe in Tiverton because well, you know, ferries and time. Lol) 🤪 So THANK YOU to Tiffany , Virginia, George, Katherine and Marcus and Crystal for EVERYTHING you all did for us! You are all amazing!! You made our trip one I will never forget and one I will forever be grateful for! You can't beat the hospitality of the Islands!! Thank you from the bottom of our 💕 Matt & Laurie

The rooms are pretty basic, but are clean, beds are comfy and everything works. Proximity to whale and bird watching tours is great too. Dining is nice as well.
