Getting Here

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

Best of the best. From reception and Kevin meeting us to bring our bags in from the car, to the amazing breakfasts prepared so lovingly by Cathy, this couple has... read more taken care to make sure every detail is perfect. How could I even begin? Clean and quiet rooms and bathrooms, relaxing common areas to unwind, play board games or have drinks. 2 minute walk to see the sun rise. There are umbrellas, bug spray, water to fill our cups, 24 hour tea station, books, soft music, board games, and more. I can’t even name it all. And then to boot, my husband left his wallet in the night stand. We couldn’t go back because our car was already jammed in on the ferry. One phone call and Kevin was on it! He delivered the wallet right to the ferry dock with zero minutes to spare! Thank God for such amazing hosts, LITERALLY going the extra mile! We will be back!

Great people

Celebrated our 26th Anniversary at The Wandering Dog and had a Great Time Doing it. It's been a while but Kevin & Kathy haven't lost a step. The Accomodations were... read more Excellent, Food and Company were spot on. Like a Fine Wine The Wandering Dog gets better with age. Looking forward to our next visit. I will HIGHLY RECOMMEND this WONDERFUL Establishment to EVERYONE WE KNOW. Sorry about the lateness of the review ... ALL THE BEST GUYS ...THANK YOU.

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.

Absolutely cannot recommend this place enough! Our stay was short but The Wandering Dog Inn offered us the quiet break we needed to fully relax. We loved it so much,... read more we immediately booked it again a month later. Our suite was so lovely, breakfast was always delicious and we enjoyed being near the beach for sunset walks. Kevin and Cathy truly made our stay so enjoyable. We look forward to returning!

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!
