My mom and I stayed at the Lodge and were both disappointed. While most bed and breakfast's are well put together/vintage-y...the Pelican Lodge was in need of improvement. We were told we were in their "nicest room" which was crammed with old furniture. The TV remote didn't work, and to change the channel we had to stand on tip toe... more

We booked 3 nights at the Pelican but the on the day of our arrival we had a motorcycle wreck. My fiancee was left with a broken wrist and ankle and I received 3rd degree burns on my stomach and an injury to my upper thigh. Due to the time and location of the accident we proceeded on to the... more

poorly kept, unmowed grounds. Hard to stand up fully in all parts of the room, even at the head of your bed due to sloping ceilings. A feeling of unclean, aged carpet and poor decorations. Just hated it. more

our reservations were summarily cancelled 48hrs in advance of our arrival because the owner had heard a weather forecast that predicted rain that day. i am a VFR only pilot (visual flight rules), which means i require at a 1000' ceiling to fly legally. it rarely gets that bad for long periods. this guy cancelled our reservations because he said... more
