The Dock and Doze Inn ( 3 untis, one is housekeeping, located across the street from the ferry dock) and The Bay of Fundy Inn, which is owned by Penny and Roy Graham of Mariner Cruises. This inn is located in a historical home on Brier Island and has two queen rooms, one double room and (from September through May) one room containing two twin beds. Cots are available for $ 15.00. Room rate includes a continental breakfast consisting of cereals, yogurt, fruit, coffee, juice, muffins and is $ 75.00 plus tax. There is a discounted rate for persons also booking a whalewatching tour with Mariner Cruises. The Bay of Fundy Inn contains a dining room, living room with TV, sitting room and a three piece washroom downstairs and a four piece bath upstairs. Next door to the inn is the Bay of Fundy Guesthouse which is a three bedroom home available for rent nightly at the rate of $ 125.00 plus tax. Towels and linens are provided and the house has kitchen facilities, dining room, living room with satellite TV, outside deck, full bath with shower, and is an option for those who prefer privacy or to be self sufficient and be able to prepare their own meals, etc. Dock & Doze - (902) 839-2601 Bay of Fundy Inn - 1 (800) 239-2189 "Wayne P. Neily" <neilyornis@hotmail.com> wrote: Hello everyone, You will note that, unlike last year, there is no arrangement to charter the Mariner cruise for our group this year, so it is up to each of us to make our own arrangements. Reservations are not required, but if we have a good number of birders down for that Saturday p.m. trip, it increases our chances of getting them to focus a little less on the whales and more on the birds. Early reservations are also recommended for accommodations, whether you are using the lodge or the hostel. I tried the hostel for last night and there was no room available; if they get enough reservations in advance, they may open the other house, but that is difficult to do on short notice. For lunch, we need to make our own arrangements, as the Lighthouse Café is closing this weekend and the Lodge does not serve lunch. Sandwiches are available at the store and perhaps from the Lodge? If enough are interested, Mrs. De Vries has offered to let us eat lunch in the Lighthouse Café and provide some soup or chowder with sandwiches, but I would need an idea of how many were interested a few days in advance to arrange that. Lavena's café in Freeport will be open for lunch, and be a good bet for Sunday if our boat gets out Saturday, but the time required for the ferry and lunch make it impractical for Saturday, unless the weather is bad. No pre-registration is required, but it would be helpful for us to have an idea of how many are coming and when, so if you could let me know of your plans (off-list ) it would be appreciated. It is understood that some of your plans may change at the last minute, but some idea of what to expect is better than none. By the way, anyone traveling to Brier more than once a year might want to get a book of tickets (10 for $12.50) on the ferry instead of paying $5 each time.
