There are a variety of housing options on the island ranging from primitive camping to large custom built lodges. In between are a range of options including glamping, hotel rooms, condo units and cottages.
During our busiest times (late June through August) and on speical event weekends, you may find it difficult to make last minute arrangements for a place to stay (unless you are planning to camp in one of the municipal campgrounds). Best to plan well ahead, but you can always check with the Chamber for last minute accomadations to accomadate spur of the moment travel. Best to check before getting on the plane or boat.
