A very nice weekend experience! We were greeted by Kevin, very entertaining and enthusiastic. After a hick up in our plans, Kathy went to bat for us and the wedding... read more bells rang. The bed was comfy and breakfast was DELICIOUS. Thank you

This is a gem that has everything you need for a great stay on Pelee. Comfortable rooms, delicious breakfasts, a relaxing vibe...but Cathy and Kevin are truly what make this... read more place a standout. We loved our chats with our new buddies and learning more about the island from them. Thank you so much for a wonderful stay and looking forward to coming back!

Great people

Very charming inn, great rooms, very clean and comfy. Kevin and Cathy are fabulous hosts! Wonderful breakfast! Highly recommend the inn!

We had such a great stay at the Wandering Dog Inn in August 2025. The room and amenities were wonderful, but the owners, Kevin and Cathy, truly made our stay... read more unforgettable. Kevin is around in the evenings to help with anything that comes up, light the campfire, and have a beer with. Cathy opens in the mornings with an amazing breakfast spread of pastries, eggs, toast and waffles, cereal, fresh juice, tea and coffee, fresh fruit, etc. They are both friendly and knowledgeable about the island. They were so helpful and offered to open up the breakfast a few minutes early on our departure day so we could grab a bite to eat and still depart to get to the ferry terminal in time. Our King Suite was spotless. It was large and well lit, and the bed was super comfortable. The bathroom was very nice, with fresh towels, soap and shampoo, etc. The air conditioning worked great even in stifling humidity. We can't recommend the inn enough!

We had a delightful 2 night stay at the Inn in the King Suite. The Inn and the owners are wonderful. A real oasis and retreat getaway from the pace... read more of life on the main land. Our suite was so spacious and it was a comfy bed. We loved that we had our own screened porch with hammock and sitting area. The breakfasts each morning were delicious and filling and so much selection. Coffee a plenty and a quaint eating area. We had so many interesting conversations with the owners about life on the island. We took advantage of the no WiFi and hit and miss cellular coverage on this corner of the island by slowing down and getting a book out and playing a nightly game of Scrabble. We rented Ebikes over by the ferry at The Pelee Shop for a full day and had a blast zooming and giggling around the island. The nicest beach is right near the Inn across from the campground. The nicest rock collecting rock beach is also right near the Inn at the end of Stone Rd. Next time we will definitely bring some picnic and BBQ food to put in the mini fridge and make use of the charcoal BBQ that each suite has. And we would make smores by the fire. This is the best place to stay on the island. For lunches and dinners we recommend Stone House, Westview Tavern and the Shack food truck by Scudder Marina. We had repeat meals at these places. We would not recommend Dog and Goat restaurant. Overall, our time on the island and at the Inn were just what we needed. A getaway!

My wife and I stayed for a couple nights and thoroughly enjoyed our visit. The property is well maintained, our room was comfortable, brekky was delicious and the hosts Cathy... read more and Kevin are second to none. They do not sugarcoat anything. We had no TV, we had barely any internet (no wifi) and our room's bathroom was not attached (though it was still private). But the peace, a bottle of wine by the fire under the stars, the company, and the vibe more than make up for it. We'll definitely be back.

The owners here are evil. I booked and paid for a room 6 months in advance for my wife, myself and baby. Once I got there, they wouldn't provide a... read more room even though I already paid for it because I had a child...who was an angel I should mention. The website said family friendly. False advertising. We were stuck on Pelee Island with nowhere to go. Everything else was booked and there were no more ferries back to the mainland. The owners understood this and they didn't care. This completely ruined my plans on the island and made everything a disaster. We ended up having to sleep in our car. If we didn't bring one, we would have been homeless for the night with a baby. The owner didn't care at all that he was sending away a baby with nowhere to sleep in the cold.

If you’re lucky enough to find an available room, book it! Pack your bikes or rent once you get here and plan to feel the relaxation seeping in! Pelee... read more Island is a laid back, old timey getaway, with the Wandering Dog offering the best of the island’s updated, sparkling clean rooms & suites. The Inn is steeped in history and surrounded by beautiful gardens, lush lawn, a the best beaches and moonlit shoreline steps away. Kathy serves up an extensive ‘continental’ breakfast with eggs, fresh whole and cut up fruits, homemade seasonal baked goods, fresh yogurt and the yummiest coffee worthy of 3 refills!!! Kevin added plenty of laughs to our evenings with his dry wit and was considerate to throw our soaking wet beach towels into the dryer. Kathy & Kevin have thought of everything so you don’t have to. Thanks for an unforgettable weekend and for sharing your island.
